Two friends are holding up opposite ends of a horizontal 5 meter long 10 kg pole.  One of them suddenly lets go.

  1. What is the net torque on the pole about the hand of the person still holding the pole?

b)  What is the magnitude of angular acceleration of the pole immediately after one of them lets go?   The moment of inertia of a pole about one end is 1/3 MR2

A child pushes her friend (m = 25 kg) located at a radius r = 1.5 m on a merry-go-round (rmgr = 2.0 m, Imgr = 1000 kg*m2) with a constant force F = 90 N applied tangentially to the edge of the merry-go-round (i.e., the force is perpendicular to the radius). The merry-go-round resists spinning with a frictional force of f = 10 N acting at a radius of 1 m and a frictional torque τ = 15 N*m...

10.4-5-6) A) A car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of 2.10 m/s2. The car makes it one quarter of the way around the circle before it skids off the track. From these data, determine the coefficient of static friction between the car and track. ________ (Hint: You are not given a value of the radius of the track. Think through the problem using the symbol R for this value and...
