Two bugs, Buzz and Crunchy, are siting on a spinning disk on a horizontal plane. Buzz is sitting halfway and Crunchy is sitting at the outer edge as shown. The radius of the disk
is 0.80 m and the disk is rotating with an angular speed of 38 rpm. The coefficient of friction between the bugs and the disk are us = 0.80 and uk= 0.60. What is the magnitude
of Buzz's acceleration, in m/s2?
Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your
answer, it is already given in the question statement.

- Q3. We examine the projectile motion of a disk on an inclined plane that makes an angle o (sin o = 0.1) with the horizontal. The y-axis is oriented along the inclined plane and the x-axis along the plane perpendicular to the y-axis, as shown in the figure. At t = 0, the disk is thrown from the origin of the coordinate system with an initial velocity V that makes the angle 0 = 53° with the x-axis (sin 53° = 0,8, cos 53° = 0,6). The frequency of the spark timer is 10 Hz. Using the measurement results in the following table: Figure 2 E() 0,0 0,1 0,2 0,0 3,75| 7,5 11,25 15,0 | 18,75 22,5 0,3 0,4 0,5 0,6 0,7 0,8 0,9 1,0 26,25 30,0 33,75 37,5 (cm) y (cm) 4,5 8,0 12,0 10,5 0,0 12,0 12,5 8,0 0,0 a) Determine the horizontal range (R) of the disk.

You call up to your lazy roommate to come down and let you in, but he says he will throw the keys down to you instead.

- A boy is playing flying fox over a swimming pool as illustrated in the figure. A cable mounted on the top of a tall tower runs down to the ground with an angle = 26° with respect to the horizontal. The boy at the top of the tower grabs a pulley on the cable and slides down from rest. His initial height was ho 15 m above the water. When he reaches hi above the water, he releases his hands from the pulley and falls into the water. The boy is subject to the regular force of gravity (g-9.80665 m/s2). Ignore friction and air resistance. <=10m (a) Determine the speed of the boy at the moment he releases his hands from the pulley. Answer: 9.90 m/s (b) Determine the speed of the boy at the moment he splashes into the water. Answer: 17 (c) At what angle with respect to the horizontal does the boy enter the water?
