Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 69GP
* Two identical lightweight arms are mounted so that they can revolve in a horizontal plane around a common axis. Two balls of masses m and 3m are fixed to the ends of the arms and connected with a light compressed spring (see the top view in Figure P6.69). When the spring is released, the arms are pushed apart, rotate in opposite directions, and finally collide. What is the angle through which each arm turns before they collide? Indicate any assumptions that you made.

*Chapter 11, Problem 13
Nonuniform ball. In the figure, a ball of mass M and radius R rolls smoothly from rest down a ramp and onto a circular loop
of radius 0.47 m. The initial height of the ball is h = 0.34 m. At the loop bottom, the magnitude of the normal force on the
ball is 1.92Mg. The ball consists of an outer spherical shell (of a certain uniform density) that is glued to a central sphere
(of a different uniform density). The rotational inertia of the ball can be expressed in the general form I = BMR², but B is
not 0.4 as it is for a ball of uniform density. Determine B.
the tolerance is +/-2%

A solid cylinder and a hollow cylinder have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. (The hollow cylinder has lightweight spokes connecting it to the axle.) A rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to a block. The blocks have the same mass and are held the same height above the ground as shown. Both blocks are released simultaneously. The ropes do not slip. Which block hits the ground first? Or is it a tie? Explain.
