Chapter 10, Problem Q10.8DQ
A valued client brings a treasured ball to your engineering firm, wanting to know whether the ball is solid or hollow. He has tried tapping on it, but that has given insufficient information. Design a simple, inexpensive experiment that you could perform quickly, without injuring the precious ball, to find out whether it is solid or hollow.

2. You, a person with mass 75 kg, are on a the surface of recently discovered
Planet Q. You construct a pendulum using a uniform solid disk (COM at
the center) with radius 0.25 m and mass 2 kg:
Ensuring that is very small, you let the pendulum oscillate and measure
that its total period is T 1.5 s. Satellite data informs you that Planet
Q has a radius of 8.3 × 108 m, and completes one full rotation around its
axis in 3.0 × 105 s.

newtons)?

- A smaller disk of radius r and mass m is attached rigidly to the face of a second larger disk of radius R and mass M as shown in Figure P15.48. The center of the small disk is located at the edge of the large disk. The large disk is mounted at its center on a frictionless axle. The assembly is rotated through a small angle from its equilibrium position and released. (a) Show that the speed of the center of the small disk as it passes through the equilibrium position is v=2[Rg(1cos)(M/m)+(r/R)2+2]1/2 (b) Show that the period of the motion is v=2[(M/2m)+R2+mr22mgR]1/2 Figure P15.48arrow_forwardA thin, spherical shell of mass m and radius R rolls down aparabolic path PQR from height H without slipping (assumeR H) as shown in Figure P13.65. Path PQ is rough (and sothe shell will roll on that path), whereas path QR is smooth, orfrictionless (so the shell will only slide, not roll, in this region).Determine the height h above point Q reached by the shell onpath QR. FIGURE P13.65arrow_forwardAll spiders are very sensitive to vibrations. An orb spider will sit at the center of its large, circular web and monitor radial threads for vibrations created when an insect lands. Assume that these threads are made of silk with a linear density of 1.0 × 10-5 kg/m under a tension of 0.40 N, both typical numbers. If an insect lands in the web 30 cm from the spider, how long will it take forthe spider to find out?arrow_forward
