Chapter 11, Problem 39P
Biomechanical engineers have developed micromechanical devices for measuring blood flow as an alternative to dye injection following angioplasty to remove arterial plaque. One experimental device consists of a 300-μm-diameter, 2.0-μm-thick silicon rotor inserted into blood vessels. Moving blood spins the rotor, whose rotation rate provides a measure of blood flow. This device exhibited an 800-rpm rotation rate in tests with water flows at several m/s. Treating the rotor as a disk, what was its

The clutch system is used to transmit torque through a 2-mm-thick oil film with m = 0.38 N?s/m2 between two identical 30-cm-diameter disks. When the driving shaft rotates at a speed of 1450 rpm, the driven shaft is observed to rotate at 1398 rpm. Assuming a linear velocity profile for the oil film, determine the transmitted torque.
In 2010, the Sikorsky's X2 helicopter became the world's fastest helicopter, flying at 249 miles per hour. When flying over 230 mph, the rotor speed is reduced from 446 to 360 RPM to keep tip speed below Mach 0.9.
If each one of the six rotor blades is about 4.02 m long, how fast is the blade tip actually moving when the rotational speed is 360 RPM?
There is a clever kitchen gadget for drying lettuce leaves after you was them. It consists of a cylindrical container mounted so that it can be rotated about its axis by turning a hand crank. The outer wall of the cylinder is perforated with small holes. You put the wet leaves in the container and turn the crank to spin off the water. The radius of the ontainer is 11.4 cm. When the cylinder is rotating at 1.36 revolutions per second, what is the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the outer wall?

- The Bunchberry flower has the fastest moving parts ever observed in a plant. Initially, the stamens are held by the petals in a bent position, storing elastic energy like a coiled spring. When the petals release, the tips of the stamen act like medieval catapults, flipping through a 60° angle in just 0.30 ms.to launch pollen from anther sacs at their ends. The human eye just sees a burst of pollen; only high speed photography reveals the details. We can model the stamen tip as a 1.0 mm long, 10µg rigid rod with a 10µg anther sac at the end. Although oversimplifying, we'll assume a Pollen Pollen Anther sac constant angular acceleration. A. How large is the "straightening torque"?

This tape has a thickness that is not small compared to the radius. You measure it and it has an outer radius of 6.40 cm and an inner radius of 3.95 cm. You weigh the tape roll and find that it has a mass of 79.5 g. Now you roll the tape like you would a hoop (Rolling tape 1 (00:05)). The video illustrates the idea of the motion - please do NOT use it for numerical values. You find that the tape starts from rest, and has a torque applied when you push on it with your finger. You push on the outer edge (perpendicular to the radial direction). This causes the tape to accelerate. After 0.75 seconds, you find that the tape has an angular velocity of 53.0 rpm (rotations / minute). What is the Force you applied to the tape to start the rotation?
