consider a free standing tower tilted at an angle theta from the vertical.

a) calculate the principal moment of inertia tensor

b) find the moment of inertia tensor for the surrounding frame, should the tower rotate about its base

and c) what applied torque would be needed to make the tower rotate about an axis which passes through its base and is parallel to the z axis

A standard door into a house rotates about a vertical axis through one side, as defined by the door's hinges. A uniform magnetic field is parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the axis. Through what angle must the door rotate so that the magnetic flux that passes through it decreases from its maximum value to 1/4 of its maximum value? Give your answer in degrees, not radians.

Consider a ‘physical pendulum’ made of a meter stick (length L = 1 m, mass 0.2 kg) with a hole drilled through it at the 5 cm mark. The stick is free to rotate (in a vertical plane) around a nail that goes through the hole and into a wall. Assume no friction between the nail and the hole. The stick’s moment of inertia about the nail is I=0.1 kgm2. (Use g=10 m/s2) If the pendulum is released from rest...
