BIO Roller Pigeons Pigeons are bred to display a number of interesting characteristics One breed of pigeon, the “roller,” is remarkable for the fact that it does a number of backward somersaults as it drops straight down toward the ground Suppose a roller pigeon drops from rest and free falls downward for a distance of 14 m. If the pigeon somersaults at the rate at 12 rad/s, how many revolutions has it completed by the end of its fall?

- Current Attempt in Progress A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 459-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 4.43 x 10' J of energy. How fast would a 10.7-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.228 m have to rotate to store this much energy? Give your answer in rev/min.

As the crank arm turns, it pulls a chain that is attached to the rear wheel of the bicycle, causing the bicycle to move forward. O 18 cm 16 cm A particular bicycle has wheels that are 66 cm in diameter. The radius of the crank arm is 18 cm. At its lowest point, the pedal is 16 cm above the ground. A person is pedaling the bicycle such that the crank arm rotates once every second. Questions: 1. Write an equation that models the vertical position of the foot with respect to the ground, starting from the lowest point, as the crank arm turns. 2. What is the rate of change of the vertical position of the foot when it is at the midline? Explain your answer 3. How fast, in kilometres per hour, is the bicycle moving? 4.

- Additional Problems A typical propeller of a turbine used to generate electricity from the wind consists of three blades as in Figure P8.75. Each blade has a length of L = 35 in and a mass of m = 420 kg. The propeller rotates at the rate of 25 rev/min. (a) Convert the angular speed of the propeller to units of rad/s. Find (b) the moment of inertia of the propeller about the axis of rotation and (c) the total kinetic, energy of the propeller.
