This one wheeled motorcycle’s wheel maximum angular velocity was about 430 rev/min. Given that it’s radius was 0.920 m, what was the largest linear velocity of the monowheel?The monowheel could not accelerate fast or the rider would start spinning inside (this is called "gerbiling"). The maximum angular acceleration was 10.9 rad/s2. How long, in seconds, would it take it to hit maximum speed from rest?

- Consider the blocks on the curved ramp as seen in the figure. The blocks have masses m₁ = 2.00 kg and m₂ = 3.60 kg, and are initially at rest. The blocks are allowed to slide down the ramp and they then undergo a head-on, elastic collision on the flat portion.

Your supervisor has asked you to analyze emergency procedures for extravehicular activity (EVA), when the astronauts leave the International Space Station (ISS) to do repairs to its exterior or perform other tasks. In particular, the scenario you are studying is a failure of the manned-maneuvering unit (MMU), which is a nitrogen-propelled backpack that attaches to the astronaut's primary life support system (PLSS). In this scenario, the astronaut is floating directly away from the ISS and cannot use the failed MMU to get back. Therefore, the emergency plan is to take off the MMU and throw it in a direction directly away from the ISS, an action that will hopefully cause the astronaut to reverse direction and float back to the station. You have the following mass data provided to you: astronaut: 78.1 kg, spacesuit: 36.8 kg, MMU: 115 kg, PLSS: 145 kg. Based on tests performed by astronauts floating "weightless" inside the ISS, the most…arrow_forward
