Problem 1: Gnome Ride - This from a Previous Exam
I.
A Gnome of given mass M goes on the Gnome Ride as follows: He stands on a horizontal
platform that is connected to a large piston so that the platform is driven vertically with a position
as a function of time according to the following equation:
y(t) = C cos(wt)
Here w is a constant given angular frequency, C is a given constant (with appropriate physical
units) and y represents the vertical position, positive upward as indicated.
Part (a) - What is the velocity of the Gnome at time t = 0? Explain your work. Present your
answer in terms of the given parameters
Part (b) – What is the net force on the Gnome at time t = 0? Explain your work. Present your
answer in terms of the given parameters
Part (c) – What is the Normal Force on the Gnome at time t = 0? Explain your work. Present
your answer in terms of the given parameters
