Chapter 6, Problem 23P
Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon has an arm length (hand to shoulder) of 0.60 m. We can model its motion as that of a point mass swinging at the end of a 0.60-m-long, massless rod. At the lowest point of its swing, the gibbon is moving at 3.5 m/s. What upward force must a branch provide to support the swinging gibbon?

A candy-filled pinata is hung from a tree for Matthew's birthday. During an unsuccessful attempt to break the 5.9 kg pinata, Hayden cracks it with a 0.49 kg stick moving at 4.8 m/s. The stick stops and the pinata undergoes a gentle swinging motion. Determine the swing speed of the pinata immediately after being cracked by the stick.
A long limp spring is hung from a beam; the spring's bottom is 660 mm above the table. A 0.50 kg cylinder is hooked to the spring's bottom while the spring hangs relaxed. When the cylinder is dropped, it turns around just above the table, where the spring's bottom had been stretched to 10 mm above the table. What is the cylinder's velocity, half-way to the bottom turn-around?
