- To give a pet hamster exercise, some people put the hamster in a ventilated ball andallow it roam around the house(Fig. P13.66). When a hamsteris in such a ball, it can cross atypical room in a few minutes.Estimate the total kinetic energyin the ball-hamster system. FIGURE P13.66 Problems 66 and 67arrow_forwardA block of mass m1 = 20.0 kg is connected to a block of mass m2 = 30.0 kg by a massless string that passes over a light, frictionless pulley. The 30.0-kg block is connected to a spring that has negligible mass and a force constant of k = 250 N/m as shown in Figure P7.73. The spring is un-stretched when the system is as shown in the figure, and the incline is frictionless. The 20.0-kg block is pulled a distance h = 20.0 cm down the incline of angle = 40.0 (so that the 30.0-kg block is 40.0 cm above the floor) and released from rest. Find the speed of each block when the 30.0-kg block is 20.0 cm above the floor (that is, when the spring is unstretched).

Jimmy: "Yes, of course it is the same. It's a single rope with a single tension force on both ends. Booyah!" B. Emmy: "I think they are different. The tension in the space between Superhero and Trusty Sidekick only has to hold up Trusty Sidekick, but the tension above Superhero has to hold up both Superhero and Trusty Sidekick. C. Timmy: "Wouldn't your, 'both ends' be the end on the ceiling and the end at Trusty Sidekick? How can you have a different 'both ends' for the space between Superhero and Trusty Sidekick? Wouldn't that only work if they had two different ropes? Or if the rope breaks? The rope clearly holds, so the tension force must be the same everywhere along the rope.

The mass of the car is 944 kg. Note: write your answer with one decimal place Answer: 271.9 The correct answer is: 271.9arrow_forwardThe maximum lift force on a bat is proportional to the square of its flying speed v. For the hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus), the magnitude of the lift force is given by Fl (0.018 N s2/m2) v2 The bat can fly in a horizontal circle by banking its wings at an angle , as shown in Figure P7.72. In this situation, the magnitude of the vertical component of the lift force must equal the bats weight. The horizontal component of the Figure P7.72. force provides the centripetal acceleration. (a) What is the minimum speed that the bat can have if its mass is 0.031 kg? (b) If the maximum speed of the bat is 10 m/s, what is the maximum banking angle that allows the bat to stay in a horizontal plane? (c) What is the radius of the circle of its flight when the bat flies at its maximum speed? (d) Can the bat turn with a smaller radius by flying more slowly?arrow_forward
