Chapter 5, Problem 70GP
* Determining the forces between powders and surfaces (adhesive forces) plays an important role in several industrial applications One method to determine adhesive forces employs the following procedure. Powder is deposited on a flat surface that was previously covered with a layer of the material under study, for example, glue. The sample is then spun very quickly for some time. During the spinning, some particles fly off the surface and some remain on it. Examining the sample after the rotation allows scientists to determine the maximum force that the surface exerted on the powder particles. (a) Explain the physics principles that are employed in this method. Figure P5.70a shows salt crystals (cubes of average mass 0.06 mg) stuck to a piece of cardboard by a layer of glue. Figure P5.70b shows the same piece of cardboard after it was spun at 80 rotations per second about the axis of rotation shown by the black dot in center of the photos. The yellow curve surrounds the area where the salt mostly remained on the cardboard. (b) Estimate the maximum force exerted by the glue on a salt crystal in this experiment. Indicate any assumptions that you made. Note: You will need a ruler to solve this problem!

lid.)
b. In Case A, a ball is released from rest at the top of a frictionless hill of height h. In Case B, an
identical ball is released from rest at the top of a hill of height h with sufficient friction that the
ball can roll without slipping. In which case does the center of mass of the ball have a larger
speed at the bottom of the hill or is it the same in both cases? Explain.

A wooden plank is placed on top of two identical, solid, parallel cylindrical rollers, as shown in the figure below. The plank has a mass of M= 5.40 kg, and the rollers each have a mass of m= 2.00 kg and a radius of R = 6.00 cm. The plank is pulled by a constant horizontal force F of magnitude 7.20 N
applied to the end of the plank and perpendicular to the axes of the cylindrical rollers. The cylinders roll without slipping on a flat surface, and there is also no slipping between the cylinders and the plank. At the instant shown in the figure, the rollers are equidistant from the ends of the plank. (Due to
the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.)
