The figure shows a thin rod, of length L= 2.20 m and negligible mass, that can pivot about one end to rotate in a vertical circle. A heavy ball of mass m = 8.10 kg is attached to the other end. The rod is pulled aside to angle 00 = 8 and released with initial velocity V 0. (a) What is the speed of the ball at the lowest point? (b) Does the speed increase, decrease, or remain the same if the mass is increased?

A bead of mass m sits on a frictionless helical wire whose shape is given by x = 4 cos(0), y = 4 sin(0), z = -50. After the bead is released from rest at z = 0 it slides down due to the gravitational force Fg = = -mg k. b) What is the energy before it is released? E = a) Denoting the speed of the bead as u, give the formula for the energy of this bead. E= * m V= Z=0 c) Give the speed of the bead when it has rotated about the z- axis n times: Here frictionless means that there is no loss of energy due to reaction forces or air resistance.
To make a pendulum, a 300 g ball is attached to one end of a string that has a length of 1.4 m and negligible mass. (The other end of the string is fixed.) The ball is pulled to one side until the string makes an angle of 30.0 with the vertical; then (with the string taut) the ball is released from rest. Find (a) the speed of the ball when the string makes an angle of 20.0 with the vertical and (b) the maximum speed of the ball. (c) What is the angle between the string and the vertical when the speed of the ball is one-third its maximum value?
