- A disk 8.00 cm in radius rotates at a constant rate of 1200 rev/min about its central axis. Determine (a) its angular speed in radians per second, (b) the tangential speed at a point 3.00 cm from its center, (c) the radial acceleration of a point on the rim, and (d) the total distance a point on the rim moves in 2.00 s.arrow_forwardWhat is (a) the angular speed and (b) the linear speed of a point on Earth’s surface at latitude 30N . Take the radius of the Earth to be 6309 km. (c) At what latitude would your linear speed be 10 m/s?arrow_forwardA space station is coast me ted in the shape of a hollow ring of mass 5.00 104 kg. Members of the crew walk on a deck formed by the inner surface of the outer cylindrical wall of the ring, with radius r = 100 m. At rest when constructed, the ring is set rotating about its axis so that the people inside experience an effective free-fall acceleration equal to g. (Sec Fig. P11.29.) The rotation is achieved by firing two small rockets attached tangentially to opposite points on the rim of the ring, (a) What angular momentum does the space station acquirer (b) For what time interval must the rockets be fired if each exerts a thrust of 125 N?arrow_forward
- Math Review (a) Convert 47.0 to radians, using the appropriate conversion ratio. (b) Convert 2.35 rad to degrees. (c) If a circle has radius 1.70 m, what is the are length subtended by a 47.0 angle? (See Sections 1.5 and 7.1.)arrow_forwardIf you know the velocity of a particle, can you say anything about the particle’s angular momentum?arrow_forwardIn testing an automobile tire for proper alignment, a technicianmarks a spot on the tire 0.200 m from the center. He then mountsthe tire in a vertical plane and notes that the radius vector to thespot is at an angle of 35.0 with the horizontal. Starting from rest,the tire is spun rapidly with a constant angular acceleration of 3.00 rad/s2. a. What is the angular speed of the wheel after 4.00 s? b. What is the tangential speed of the spot after 4.00 s? c. What is the magnitude of the total accleration of the spot after 4.00 s?" d. What is the angular position of the spot after 4.00 s?arrow_forward

The earth's gravitational field is assumed to be uniform and directed downwards. Assume no friction at hinges.The rod is now released. Find the maximum magnitude of angular speed of the rod (in rad/s). (Take: L=1m, √10 =19÷6)arrow_forwardA disk rotates about an axis through its center. Point A is located on its rim and point B is located exactly one fifth of the way from the center toward the rim.

- A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5×10−333.5×10^-3 s, radius 10 km. And suppose its mass is 2.1×10302.1×10^30 kg. The pulsar's rotational period will increase over time due to the release of electromagnetic radiation, which doesn't change its radius but reduces its rotational energy. A. What is the angular momentum of the pulsar? Give your answer in the scientific notation, in the normalized form. L = x 10 js B. Suppose the angular velocity decreases at a rate of 4.7×10−144.7×10-14 rad/s2. What is the magnitude of the torque on the pulsar? Give your answer in the scientific notation, in the normalized form. Tnet = x 10 N marrow_forwardwhat is the correct answer?arrow_forwardA bowling ball, whose radius R is 11 cm and whose mass is 7.2 kg. rolls from rest down a plank whose length L is 2.1 m. the plank is inclined at an angle φ of 34 degrees to the horizontal. How fast is the ball moving when it reaches the bottom of the plank?arrow_forward
