(II) A coin is placed 13.0 cm from the axis of a rotating turntable of variable speed. When the speed of the turntable is slowly increased, the coin remains fixed on the turntable until a rate of 38.0 rpm (revolutions per minute)is reached, at which point the coin slides off. What is the coefficient of static friction between the coin and the turntable?

The rod of negligible mass is subjected to a constant couple moment of M, and the engine of the car supplies a traction force of F. Neglect the size of the car. You will be asked to solve for different things. Please pay attention: the numbers may change from problem to problem since they are randomized. 3) If the rod is subjected to a constant couple moment of M = 800 N•m, and the engine of the car supplies a traction force of F=11•t N to the wheels, where tis in seconds, what is the magnitude of the angular impulse from the moment and the force to the car-rider system in kg•m²/s from t = 0 to t = 5.7 s?

Also assume as you pedal, the pedal will not hit the ground (Rpedal < Rire, the diagram is not drawn to scale). O₁ (ii) Write down Newton's second law for this situation. Label and define any radii, forces, moment of inertia, masses etc so I know what each variable means. Please break each variable down to base components/definitions (i.e. FG = mg). (iii) If we are "spinning out" aka the tire spins and the unicycle does not move forward, does your extended free body diagram change? If so, how? What condition can we no longer use?arrow_forward
