250 kg concrete wheel with a radius of 1.50 m is being pulled up a hill by a 725 kg cow, with a rope attached to the wheel and the cow. There is a 35.5 cm tall rock protruding out of the hill.
Calculate the tension in the rope when the wheel is just starting to lift off of the hill to go over the protruding rock? What's the minimum coefficient of static friction between the cow and the hill for the cow to be able to pull the wheel over the rock?
A car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of 1.75 m/s. The car makes it one quarter of the way around the circle before it skids
off the track. From these data, determine the coefficient of static friction between the car and track.

- A car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of 1.70 m/s2. The car makes it one-quarter of the way around the circle before it skids off the track. From these data, determine the coefficient of static friction between the car and the track.arrow_forwardArtificial gravity is produced in a space station by rotating it, so it is a noninertial reference frame. The rotation means that there must be a centripetal force exerted on the occupants: this centripetal force is exerted by the walls of the station. The space station in Arthur C. Clarkes 2001: A Space Odyssey is in the shape of a four-spoked wheel with a diameter of 155 m. If the space station rotates at a rate of 2.40 revolutions per minute, what is the magnitude of the artificial gravitational acceleration provided to a space tourist walking on the inner wall of the station?arrow_forwardConsider an object on a rotating disk a distance r from its center, held in place on the disk by static friction. Which of the following statements is not true concerning this object? (a) If the angular speed is constant, the object must have constant tangential speed. (b) If the angular speed is constant, the object is not accelerated. (c) The object has a tangential acceleration only if the disk has an angular acceleration. (d) If the disk has an angular acceleration, the object has both a centripetal acceleration and a tangential acceleration. (e) The object always has a centripetal acceleration except when the angular speed is zero.arrow_forward

Once the angular velocity reaches its full value, the floor drops away and friction between the walls and the riders prevents them from sliding down. Construct a problem in which you calculate the necessary angular velocity that assures the riders will not slide down the wall. Include a free body diagram of a single rider. Among the variables to consider are the radius of the cylinder and the coefficients of friction between the riders' clothing and the wall.arrow_forwardHarry sets some clay (m = 3.25 kg) on the edge of a pottery wheel (r = 0.600 m), which is initially motionless. He then begins to rotate the wheel with a uniform acceleration, reaching a final angular speed of 2.400 rev/s in 3.00 s, while not touching the clay. As a result, the clay is subject to a tangential and centripetal acceleration while it sits on the edge of the wheel. a. What force is responsible for the tangential acceleration, and what force is responsible for the centripetal acceleration? b. Which of these two forces, tangential or centripetal, will necessarily fail to keep the clay in place on the wheel first? Why?arrow_forward
