- The figure below shows, at left, a solid disk of radius R = 0.600 m and mass 75.0 kg. Tu Mounted directly to it and coaxial with it is a pulley with a much smaller mass and a radius of r = 0.230 m. The disk and pulley assembly are on a frictionless axle. A belt is wrapped around the pulley and connected to an electric motor as shown on the right. The turning motor gives the disk and pulley a clockwise angular acceleration of 1.67 rad/s². The tension T in the upper (taut) segment of the belt is 145 N. (a) What is the tension (in N) in the lower (slack) segment of the belt? N (b) What If? You replace the belt with a different one (one slightly longer and looser, but still tight enough that it does not sag). You again turn on the motor so that the disk accelerates clockwise. The upper segment of the belt once again has a tension of 145 N, but now the tension in the lower belt is exactly zero.

He is working on a new trick and has asked you, his star physics student, for assistance. The figure below shows the apparatus he is designing. Cup Hinged end - Support stick A small ball rests on a support so that the center of the ball is at the same height as the upper lip of a cup of negligible mass that is attached to a uniform board of length = 1.89 m. When the support stick is snatched away, the ball will fall and the board will rotate around the hinged end. As the board hits the table, your instructor wants the ball to fall into the cup. The larger the angle 0, the more time the elementary school children will have to watch the progress of the trick. But if the angle is too large, the cup may not pull ahead of the ball. For example, in the limiting case of 90°, the board would not fall at all! (a) Your instructor wishes to know the minimum angle 0 (in degrees) at which the support would…arrow_forward
