Transcribed Image Text:Here is the transcription of the text from the image:
---
1. A small button placed on a horizontal rotating platform with a diameter of 0.320 m will revolve with the platform when it is brought up to a rotational speed of 37.0 rev/min, provided the button is no more than 0.140 m from the axis.
- What is the coefficient of static friction between the button and the platform?
- How far from the axis can the button be placed, without slipping, if the platform rotates at 60.0 rev/min?
13. A 5.00-m-diameter merry-go-round is turning with a 4.00 s period.
- What is the speed of a child on the rim?
14. The blade on a table saw spins at 3800 rpm. Its diameter is 25.0 cm.
- What is the speed of a tooth on the edge of the blade, in m/s?
- What is the speed of a tooth on the edge of the blade, in mph?
15. An old-fashioned LP record rotates at 33 1/3 rpm.
- What is its frequency, in rev/s?
- What is its period, in seconds?
16. A typical hard disk in a computer spins at 10,000 rpm.
- What is the frequency, in rev/s?
- What is the period, in seconds?
17. A CD-ROM drive in a computer spins the 12-cm-diameter disks at 7300 rpm.
- What is a disk's period in s?
- What is a disk's frequency in rev/s?
18. The horse on a carousel is 4.1 m from the central axis. If the carousel rotates at 0.14 rev/s, how fast does it take the horse to go all the way around the sun, assuming a year of 365 days. Assume a year of 365 days.
- How fast is a child on the horse going, in m/s?
19. The radius of the earth's very nearly circular orbit around the sun is 1.50 x 10^11 m. Find the magnitude of the earth's centripetal acceleration as it travels around the sun, assuming a year of 365 days.
