The drawing shows two identical systems of objects; each consists of the same three small balls connected by massless rods. In both systems the axis is perpendicular to the page, but it is located at a different place, as shown. The same force of magnitude F is applied to the same ball in each system (see the drawing). The masses of the balls are m1 = 9.4 kg, m2 = 6.9 kg, and m3 = 7.2 kg. The magnitude of the force is F = 488 N. (a) For each of the two systems, determine the moment of inertia about the given axis of rotation. (b) Calculate the torque (magnitude and direction) acting on each system. (c) Both systems start from rest, and the direction of the force moves with the system and always points along the 4.00-m rod. What is the angular velocity of each system after 5.10 s?

The drawing shows two identical systems of objects; each consists of the same three small balls connected by massless rods. In both systems the axis is perpendicular to the page, but it is located at a different place, as shown. The same force of magnitude F is applied to the same ball in each system (see the drawing). The masses of the balls are m1 = 8.2 kg, m2 = 5.3 kg, and m3 = 7.7 kg. The magnitude of...

In the Cavendish balance apparatus shown in Figure 13.4 in the textbook, suppose that m1 = 1.00 kg, m2 = 27.0 kg, and the rod connecting each of the pairs of masses is 28.0 cm long. Once the system reaches equilibrium, each pair of masses, m1 and m2, are separated by a distance of 12.0 cm center-to-center. A) Find the magnitude (in N) of the net force on one of the small masses, m1 B) Find the gravitational torque (about...

A ceiling fan consists of a small cylindrical disk with 5 thin rods coming from the center. The disk has mass md = 2.6 kg and radius R = 0.24 m. The rods each have mass mr = 1.4 kg and length L = 0.78 m. a) What is the moment of inertia of each rod about the axis of rotation? b) What is the moment of inertia of the disk about the axis of rotation? c) What is the...

Two balls moving with the same speed of v = 0.48 m/s but in opposite directions undergo a head-on collision. Ball A has mass mA = 2.6 kg and is traveling to the left, while ball B has mass mB = 1.3 kg and is traveling to the right. The balls are shown just before the collision in the figure below. (a) Which ball has the larger momentum (in magnitude) before the collision? Ball A Ball B Both balls have...

A barbell spins around a pivot at its center at A. The barbell consists of two small balls, each with mass 450 grams (0.45 kg), at the ends of a very low mass rod of length d = 50 cm (0.5 m; the radius of rotation is 0.25 m). The barbell spins clockwise with angular speed 120 radians/s. We can calculate the angular momentum and kinetic energy of this object in two different ways, by treating the object as two...

1. A yo-yo consists of two solid disks, each of mass M and radius 3R. The two disks are connected by a rod of radius R and negligible mass. a.) The moment of inertia of the yo-yo about its axis of symmetry is of the form ???^2 where ? is a number. What is ?? b.) Draw the extended free body diagram for the yo-yo and use it to write Newton's 2nd law in terms of the magnitude of the...

1. Dynamics and artificial gravity. The space station has two thrusters pointed in opposite directions. They operate by expelling propellant at high speed. The effect is that there is a force of magnitude F0 on the two ends of the space station in opposite directions, which causes the entire object to start rotating. The thrusters will stop firing when the artificial gravity created on the space station (described below) reaches the required value. Upward force, magnitude F0 Downward force, magnitude...
