Chapter 6, Problem 52PQ
Harry sets some clay (m = 3.25 kg) on the edge of a pottery wheel (r = 0.600 m), which is initially motionless. He then begins to rotate the wheel with a uniform acceleration, reaching a final angular speed of 2.400 rev/s in 3.00 s, while not touching the clay. As a result, the clay is subject to a tangential and centripetal acceleration while it sits on the edge of the wheel.
a. What force is responsible for the tangential acceleration, and what force is responsible for the centripetal acceleration?
b. Which of these two forces, tangential or centripetal, will necessarily fail to keep the clay in place on the wheel first? Why?

- 2.62 Collision. The engineer of a passenger train traveling at 25.0 m/s sights a freight train whose caboose is 200 m ahead on the same track (Fig. P2.62). The freight train is traveling at 15.0 m/s in the same direction as the passenger train. The engineer of the passenger train immediately applies the brakes, causing a constant acceleration of 0.100 m/s² in a direction opposite to the train's velocity, while the freight train continues with constant speed. Take x = 0 at the location of the front of the passenger train when the engineer applies the brakes. (a) Will the cows nearby witness a collision? (b) If so, where will it take place?
