Transcribed Image Text:A a paddle for a boat is constructed of a stick of length L and a "quartic"
end piece. The end can be thought of as a uniform flat board of mass m that has been
cut to form a quartic function given by y = x*, so that the length from the trough (i.e.,
the y
0 end of the function) to the tip is y = H. To simplify this a little, assume
that the stick is massless. This paddle is stood vertically upward on the stick end
and attached to a hinge on the floor so that it is free to rotate in the in/out of the
page direction. When it is standing straight up that is an unstable equilibrium. A very
small infinitesimal push is given to get the paddle moving and it swings downward under
gravity (acceleration g).
(a) When the paddle is standing vertically upward, what is the position of the center
of mass of the paddle?
(b) What is the moment of inertia of the paddle for rotations in/out of the page about
an axis through the center of mass?
(c) What is the angular velocity of the paddle just before it hits the ground?

- Body U with mass 5m is stacked on the top body W with mass m, and released. The bodies are in contact along the frictionless interface at 45° to the vertical. The body U is in contact with the frictionless vertical wall. Body W lies on the floor with coefficient of friction u. Relevant dimensions are shown in the figure. Express the results in terms of given quantities: m, g, h and µ (except when µ is given numerically).

Your friend is helping you so that the ladder does not collapse by exerting a force F_AL at an angle ϕ relative to the horizontal. The ladder has a length L and makes an angle of θ with respect to the vertical wall. You have a mass, m_Y, and are a horizontal distance x from the wall. The ladder has a mass of m_L. Because the wall is slick, and the ice on the floor is slick, the frictional forces acting on the ladder are negligible. Find a formula for the magnitude of the force that your friend must exert to keep the ladder from falling, in terms of the following variables: x,L,m_Y,m_L,θ,ϕ. Then use the following values to get a number for the magnitude of F_AL. θ = 30.3 degrees ϕ = 23.028 degrees x = 1.491 meters L = 7.1 meters m_Y = 86.0 kg m_L = 42.14 kg Find the magnitudes of: F_AL, normal force of the wall on the ladder (N_WL), and normal force of the floor on the ladder (N_FL).arrow_forward4 spheres, each of diameter D= 0.05 m (spheres are identified as 1, 2, 3, 4), are placed on the end of 4 rods of length L = 0.15 m, arranged in a cross pattern as shown in the figure. L The rigid assembly is free to pivot without friction about the axis, o, normal to the page. Sphere 1 is covered with roughness of height ɛ = 0.25 mm while all other spheres are smooth. 1 With an oncoming velocity of U= 60 m/s, which direction will the assembly rotate? (Clockwise or counterclockwise). Use appropriate calculations to explain and justify your answer. Density of air is 1.2 kg/m³ and viscosity is 1.5 x 10-5 m²/s. 3.arrow_forward
- Please help!arrow_forwardYou are attending a county fair with your friend from your physics class. While walking around the fairgrounds, you discover a new game of skill. A thin rod of mass M = 0.570 kg and length = 2.70 m hangs from a friction-free pivot at its upper end as shown in the figure. Pivot Incoming Velcro-covered ball Velcro m M l The front surface of the rod is covered with Velcro. You are to throw a Velcro-covered ball of mass m = 1.05 kg at the rod in an attempt to make it swing backward and rotate all the way across the top. The ball must stick to the rod at all times after striking it. If you cause the rod to rotate over the top position (that is, rotate 180° opposite of its starting position), you win a stuffed animal. Your friend volunteers to try his luck. He feels that the most torque would be applied to the rod by striking it at its lowest end. While he prepares to aim at the lowest point on the rod, you calculate how fast he must throw the ball to win the stuffed animal with this…arrow_forwardWhat did I do wrong?arrow_forward
