Q- A thin rod is held vertically with its lower end resting on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod is then released to fall freely.
(a) Determine the speed of its center of mass just before it hits the horizontal surface. Use h, M, and g for length, mass, and gravitational acceleration res…
Q- A m1 = 16.0 kg object and a m2 = 12.5 kg object are suspended, joined by a cord that passes over a pulley with a radius of 10.0 cm and a mass of 3.00 kg. The cord has a negligible mass and does not slip on the pulley. The pulley rotates on its axis without friction. The objects start from rest 3.…
Q- A mirror is to be meant to oscillate at 10 cycles per minute and turns 30 degrees either side of the center line. The radius of the rotor is r and the length of the shaft L (considerably large). At what distance d from the center of the mirror the shaft is to be pinned and what is the distance of…
Q- A horizontal disk of mass 150g and radius 20 cm rotates at 10 rev/min about its axis, without any external torque. A flying bug of mass 15g lands vertically on the disk at a point half way to the center and stick to it. Find the angular speed of the disk just after the collision.
Q- A solid wheel of mass 30 kg is rolled toward the left along a horizontal surface under the action of a horizontal force of magnitude 200 N, acting at the center of the wheel . If the friction is sufficient to prevent slipping, what is the magnitude of linear acceleration of the center of the whee…
Q- A solid sphere of radius R starts at rest on top of a semicircular track of radius S., as shown in the figure. The sphere rolls without slipping along the track until it falls off the track at point B. Point A is a vertical distance H above the ground; the height of point B is unknown. You may as…
Q- A solid disk of mass M = 1.3 kg and radius R = 25 cm is free to rotate in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis going through its center. The disk is originally at rest. A piece of clay of mass m= 200 gm (consider particle) drops from 2.5 m above the center of the disk and sticks to its edge a…
Q- A block of weight 150 lb is placed on a rough horizontal surface and a horizontal force P = 60 lb is acting on it as in figure. The friction is sufficient to prevent sliding. Find the horizontal distance between the line of action of the weight of the block and the normal reaction of the surface.
Q- Two disks with moments of inertia I1 (top disk) and I2 (bottom disk) are connected by a mass-less torsion spring which produces a restoring torque with magnitude |τ| = c |θ1-θ2| on each disk, where θ1 and θ2 are the angular positions of the disks. (You can imagine that this system is free…
Q- A wheel starting from rest with uniform angular acceleration makes 3 revolutions in 8 s
(a) What is the angular acceleration of the wheel?
(b) What is its angular velocity at t = 8 s?
(c) What is the linear speed of a particle at distance 0.50 m from the axis of rotation at t = 8 s?
Q- A fulcrum is created by balancing a ruler on a pencil in the middle. Six one rupee coins are placed at 10 cm to the left of the pivot point.
(a) what is the torque exerted by the stack of the six coins about the pivot point if each coin has a mass of 10 grams?
(b) if the ruler is to be balanced…
Q- A light cylindrical axle of radius r is free to rotate about its vertical axis. The upper end of the axle is attached to a light horizontal cross bar with two small masses, each M, at a distance R from the axle. A light string is wrapped on the axle and its free end is passing over a smooth light…
