Review. A piece of putty is initially located at point A on the rim of a grinding wheel rotating at constant angular speed about a horizontal axis. The putty is dislodged from point A when the diameter through A is horizontal. It then rises vertically and returns to A at the instant the wheel completes one revolution. From this information, we wish to find the speed v of the putty when it leaves the wheel and the force holding it to the wheel. (a) What analysis model is appropriate for the motion of the putty as it rises and falls? (b) Use this model to find a symbolic expression for the time interval between when the putty leaves point A and when it arrives back at A, in terms of v and g. (c) What is the appropriate analysis model to describe point A on the wheel? (d) Find the period of the motion of point A in terms of the tangential speed v and the radius R of the wheel. (e) Set the time interval from part (b) equal to the period from part (d) and solve for the speed v of the putty as it leaves the wheel. (f) If the mass of the putty is m, what is the magnitude of the force that held it to the wheel before it was released?

- A small particle of mass m is pulled to the top of a friction less half-cylinder (of radius R) by a light cord that passes over the top of the cylinder as illustrated in Figure P7.15. (a) Assuming the particle moves at a constant speed, show that F = mg cos . Note: If the particle moves at constant speed, the component of its acceleration tangent to the cylinder must be zero at all times. (b) By directly integrating W=Fdr, find the work done in moving the particle at constant speed from the bottom to the top of the hall-cylinder. Figure P7.15arrow_forwardAn amusing trick is to press a finger down on a marble on a horizontal table top, in such a way that the marble is projected along the table with an initial linear speed v and an initial backward rotational speed ω about a horizontal axis perpendicular to v. The coefficient of sliding friction between marble and top is constant. The marble has radius R. If the marble skids to a stop and then starts returning toward its initial position, with a final constant speed of 0.620v, what was ω in terms of v and R? Hint for part (b): When the marble rolls without slipping, the relationship between speed and angular speed is v = ωR.arrow_forwardA bowling ball, whose radius R is 11 cm and whose mass is 7.2 kg. rolls from rest down a plank whose length L is 2.1 m. the plank is inclined at an angle φ of 34 degrees to the horizontal.
