Chapter 10, Problem 84GP
A Yo-Yo with a Brain Yomega (“The yo-yo with a brain”) is constructed with a clever clutch mechanism in its axle that allows it to rotate freely and “sleep” when its angular speed is greater than a certain critical value. When the yo-yo’s angular speed falls below this value, the clutch engages, causing the yo-yo to climb the string to the user’s hand. If the moment of inertia of the yo-yo is 7.4×10−5 kg · m2, its mass is 0.11 kg. and the string is 1.0 m long, what is the smallest angular speed that will allow the yo-yo to return to the user’s hand?

Most gasoline engines in today's automobiles are belt driven. This means that the crankshaft, a rod which rotates and drives the
pistons, is timed to the camshaft, the mechanism which actuates the valves, by means of a belt. Starting from rest, assume it
takes t = 0.0100 s for a crankshaft with a radius of r₁ = 3.75 cm to reach 1550 rpm. If the belt does not stretch or slip, calculate
the angular acceleration a2 of the larger camshaft, which has a radius of r2 = 7.50 cm, during this time period.
α₂ =

Bob gets a summer job operating a merry-go-round. During the first run he sees that a full revolution takes 5-s, so he decides to “kick it up a notch” such that a full revolution takes 2.5-s. (a) What are the respective angular velocities? (b) If it took the merry-go-round 5-s to increase its velocity, what angular acceleration did the kids on the ride experience? (c) At the higher angular velocity, what would a boy’s linear velocity be if he is sitting on a lion 2-m from the center? (d) What are the components of his linear acceleration half-way through the angular velocity change?
In a popular amusement park ride, a rotating
cylinder of radius R = 3.10 m is set in rotation at an
angular speed of 5.30 rad/s, The floor then drops
away, leaving the riders suspended against the wall
in a vertical position. What minimum coefficient of
friction between a rider's clothing and the wall is
needed to keep the rider from slipping?
