- A merry-go-round is stationary. A clog is running around the merry-go-round on the ground just outside its circumference, moving with a constant angular speed of 0.750 rad/s. The dog does not change his pace when he sees what he has been looking for: a bone resting on the edge of the merry-go-round one- third of a revolution in front of him. At the instant the dog sees the bone (t = 0), the merry-go-round begins to move in the direction the dog is running, with a constant angular acceleration of 0.015 0 rad/s2. (a) At what time will the dog first reach the bone? (b) The confused dog keeps running and passes the bone. How long after the merry-go-round starts to turn do the dog and the bone draw even with each other for the second time?arrow_forwardMiguel, an Ultimate Frisbee player, is running three drills (Fig. P3.17). In the first drill. Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and then makes a 90 turn to the right, running an additional distance d. In the second drill, Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and makes a 95 turn to the right before running an additional distance d. In the final drill, Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and makes an 85 turn to the right before running an additional distance d. a. In which case did Miguel end up farthest from his starting point? In which case did he end up closest to his starting point? b. In which case(s) does Miguel end up farther away from his starting point than distance d? c. At what angle will his distance away be exactly d?arrow_forwardAt its peak, a tornado is 60.0 m in diameter and carries 500 km/h winds.

- Two planets in circular orbits around a star have speed of v and 2v . (a) What is the ratio of the orbital radii of the planets? (b) What is the ratio of their periods?arrow_forwardOver the Christmas break, you are making some extra money for buying presents by working in a factory, helping to move crates around. At one particular time, you find that all the handtrucks, dollies, and carts are in use, so you must move a crate across the room a straight-line distance of 35.0 m without the assistance of these devices. You notice that the crate has a rope attached to the middle of one of its vertical faces. You decide to move the crate by pulling on the rope. The crate has a mass of 130 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the concrete floor is 0.350. (a) Determine the angle relative to the horizontal at which you should pull upward on the rope so that you can move the crate over the desired distance with the force of the smallest magnitude. (b) At this angle of pulling on the rope, how much work do you do in dragging the crate over the desired distanced?arrow_forwardThe average distance between Earth and the Sun is 1.51011m .
