solid uniform cylinder 0.300 m in diameter with mass 12.0 kg. The cylinder
pivots on a frictionless axle through its center. The bucket is released from rest
at the top of a well and falls 10.0 m to the water. (a) What is the tension in the rope while

At the bottom of the tank, a rigid rod of length L is pinned to the frictionless floor and the other end is connected to a small object of mass m with a rocket nozzle on it. The rocket will exert a constant thrust force of magnitude F, directed in the tangential direction. The object will start from rest, rotating about a circle in the horizontal plane when the rocket motor is turned on. Since it is under water, the object experiences a drag force that depends linearly on the objects velocity D=-bỷ where b is a constant and v is the object's velocity vector (the minus sign just means that the drag force points in the direction OPPOSITE the object's velocity). a) Draw a complete FBD of the object while it is speeding up.
