(a) Determine the maximum speed Mary can go, if the coefficient of static friction between her shoes and the floor is 0.450. Assume that Mary is not hanging on, but is simply balancing on her feet at a distance of 4.50 m from the center of the merry-go-round. Use g = 10 m/s?. m/s. (b) Which, if any, of the following would help Mary stay on the merry-go-round without sliding? (Select all that apply.) O moving a little closer to the center of the merry-go-round O moving a little closer to the outer edge of the merry-go-round O wearing a heavy backpack that increases her mass

The Gravitron ride has people step in, lean against a wall and “stick” when it spins and the floor drops out after a certain velocity. A rider has a mass of 50kg. The coefficient of static friction of the body against a wall is 0.8. The diameter of the ride is 10m. What is the maximum period of the ride’s rotation that will keep the student pinned to the wall once the floor drops?
In the Atwood machine shown below, m, = 2.00 kg and m2 = 5.60 kg. The masses of the pulley and string are negligible by comparison. The pulley turns without friction and the string does not stretch. The lighter object is released with a sharp push that sets it into motion at v, = 2.15 m/s downward. How far will m, descend below %3D %3! its initial level? Pulley - String m, m, O A.

At an amusement park there is a ride in which cylindrically shaped chambers spin around a central axis. People sit in seats facing the axis, their backs against the outer wall. At one instant the outer wall moves at a speed of 2.72 m/s, and an 82.0-kg person feels a 276-N force pressing against his back. What is the radius of a chamber?

Children playing pirates have suspended a uniform wooden plank with mass M = 13.4 kg, length ℓ = 2.40 m, and angle θ = 35.0°, as shown in the figure. Sophia, with a mass of m = 21.6 kg, is made to "walk the plank" and is d = 1.5 m from reaching the end of the plank. What is the tension acting on the rope at the end (i.e value of F3)?
Can you please help me solve this problem? A mini van rounds a level turn with a 210 m radius. It is an icy day where the coefficents of static and kinetic friction between the tires and the road are 0.16 and 0.12 respectively. With all this in mind, what is the largest speed the mini van can take the turn without slipping?
The tension is growing!Context At your summer job, your supervisor wants to test your physics skills. A new winch (a cable driven by a motor) is to be used to hoist loads up an inclined ramp. Your supervisor is worried about the packages arriving too quickly at the top of the ramp. Constraints The inclined ramp is made up of small cylinders that are free to rotate: there is no friction between the ramp and the load.The angle theta of the ramp from the horizontal is known.The winch cable exerts a known force.The cable is oriented at an angle a from the horizontal.The charge, initially immobile, has a known mass.The length of the ramp is known. Schematization Draw a diagram of the object that interests us. Draw your x and y axes. Draw and name each force experienced by the object that interests us. Modelization Build a model to calculate the final speed of the load as it arrives at the top of the ramp, given the known parameters. Then test your model with the following values: Ramp…
