In the diagram below there is a solid sphere of mass m and radius r at the top of a track formed by an incline and a circular loop. The bottom of the incline is connected to a circular loop. The ball rolls without slipping throughout the track. The ball is released from rest from the top of the incline. If the top of the incline has a total height H which is equal to the diameter of the loop (that is, H = 2R), find the position (height measured from the ground) where the ball falls from the loop in terms of the given parameters. You may use: Isolid sphere =mr2

The ability of the human eye to rapidly rotate was studied using contact lenses fitted with accelerometers. While a subject, whose eyeball has radius 1.25 cm, watches a moving object her eyeball rotates through 20.0° in a time interval of 64.1ms. Assume that the eye starts at rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration during the first half of the interval, and then the rotation slows with a constant angular acceleration during the second half until it comes to rest. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the eye? rad/s2
A child sits on a merry‑go‑round that has a diameter of 6.00 m. The child uses her legs to push the merry‑go‑round, making it go from rest to an angular speed of 18.0 rpm in a time of 37.0 s. What is the angular displacement Δθ of the merry‑go‑round, in units of radians (rad), during the time the child pushes the merry‑go‑round?
A hollow sphere (I=\frac{2}{3}mr^2I=32mr2) of radius R rotates about a diameter with an angular speed \omegaω. The sphere then collapses (magically) under the action of internal forces to a final radius of R/2 with no change in its mass. What is the final angular speed of the sphere?
A thin stick of mass 0.2 kg and length L = 0.5 m is attached to the rim of a metal disk of mass M = 2.0 kg and radius R = 0.3 m . The stick is free to rotate around a horizontal axis through its other end (see the following figure). (a) If the combination is released with the stick horizontal, what is the speed of the center of the disk when the stick is vertical? (b) What is the acceleration of the center of the disk at the instant the stick is released? (c) At the instant the stick passes through the vertical?
A large wind turbine (typical of the size and specifications of a turbine that you see in a modern wind farm) has three blades connected to a central hub. The blades are 50 m long and rotate at 10 rpm. What angular speed ω does this correspond to? What is the speed ν of the tip of a blade? What is the speed of a point 25 m from the hub?
A uniform thin spherical shell of mass M and radius R rotates about a vertical axis on frictionless bearings. A massless cord passes around the equator of the shell, over a pulley of rotational inertia I and radius r, and is attached to a small object of mass m. There is no friction on the pulley’s axle; the cord does not slip on the pulley. Determine the expression for the speed of the object after it falls a distance h from rest.
A mass (M = 5.0 kg) is connected to a two pulley system. Pulley 1 has a moment of inertia, I = 0.5 kgm2, and a radius, R = 0.2 m. Pulley 2 has moment of inertia, I = 0.3 kgm2, and a radius, R = 0.15 m. The cord is spooled around pulley 2. The pulleys rotate about frictionless axles and the cord can be considered massless. (i) Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of m (ii) Determine the magnitude of the tension in the string attached to m (iii) Determine the magnitude of the tension between the pulleys.
A block of m = 2.00 kg hangs from a string that passes over a pulley with a moment of inertia / (to be determined) and a radius R = 0.44 m. The system of block and pulley is released from rest when the block is 5.00 m above the floor. It takes t = 1.17 s for the block to reach the floor. As the block accelerates downward, the pulley undergoes a counterclockwise angular acceleration. Using Newton's Laws (for linear and rotational motion), determine the moment of inertia I of the pulley. (Consider the linear acceleration of the block (from kinematics), the tension in the string, and the torque on the pulley.

A uniform disk (1=1/2 mR2) has a mass of 3 kg and a radius of 2m. The disk is mounted on frictionless bearings and is used as a turntable. The turntable is initially rotating at 120 rpm (revolutions per minute, convert it to rad/s). A hollow cylinder has the same mass and radius as the disk. It is released from rest, just above the turntable, and on the same vertical axis. The hollow cylinder slips on the turntable for 0.20 s until it acquires the same final angular velocity as the turntable. (HINT: Note that some of the information given is not needed! Think which conservation law(s) apply.) The final angular momentum of the system is closest to: L = Submit [5] ΑΣΦ Request Answer ? kg. m²/s 4
You are building a display for a children's science museum in which a uniform, solid sphere of radius 0.074 m starts at rest at the top of a "hill" and rolls, without slipping, down a track and around a loop-the-loop of radius R = 1.23 m. You have already determined that the ball has to be moving at a speed no less than 3.37 m/s at the top of the loop in order to make it around the loop without falling. Note: You should consider whether the ball will be above or below the track at the top of the loop. What is the minimum height of the "hill" in order to ensure that this happens?
The figure shows a device that can be used to measure the speed of a bullet. The device consists of two rotating disks, separated by a distance of d = 0.872 m, and rotating with an angular speed of 101 rad/s. The bullet first passes through the left disk and then through the right disk. It is found that the angular displacement between the two bullet holes is = 0.268 rad. From these data, determine the speed of the bullet. Number IN Bullet Units Motor
