- A coin of mass m and rotates on a circular platform of radius r at the fastest speed possible without the coin sliding off. In this case, the coin makes each revolution in 5.1 seconds (its period). The coin and platform have a coefficient of friction, that is unchanged. If the mass of the coin is increased by a factor of 7, what would be the new period?

It is connected by a massless string through a hole in a frictionless table to a larger object of mass m₂ = 0.275 kg, as shown in the figure. Assuming the larger object is stationary, calculate the tension T in the string and the linear speed u of the circular motion of the smaller object on the table. Assume that the radius R of the circular path of the smaller object is equal to 1.00 m.

They skate in a circle about the center of the rope (the center of mass of the two-body system) and perpendicular to the ice. The mass of each twin is 78.0 kg. The rope of negligible mass is 3.5 m long and they move at a speed of 5.40 m/s. a)What is the magnitude, in kg · m2/s, of the angular momentum of the system comprised of the two twins? (b)They now pull on the rope and move closer to each other so that the rope between them is now half as long. Determine the speed, in m/s, with which they move now. (c)The two twins have to do work in order to move closer to each other. How much work, in joules, did they do?arrow_forward

- Two blocks, which can be modeled as point masses, are connected by a massless string which passes through a hole in a frictionless table. A tube extends out of the hole in the table so that the portion of the string between the hole and M1 remains parallel to the top of the table. The blocks have masses M1 = 1.2 kg and M2 = 2.7 kg. Block 1 is a distance r = 0.55 m from the center of the frictionless surface.
