The way that a yo-yo is rolled. There are three forces applied to the yo-yo in three different ways. The yo-yo rests on a horizontal table. It is free to roll, but sliding is resisted. There is a hint to think about the torques about the pivot point, where the yo-yo touches the table. The related diagram is given below:

- A bowling ball rolls up a ramp 0.5 m high without slipping to storage. It has an initial velocity of its center of mass of 3.0 m/s. (a) What is its velocity at the top of the ramp? (b) If the ramp is 1 m high does it make it to the top?arrow_forwardBIO The arm in Figure P10.35 weighs 41.5 N. The gravitational force on the arm acts through point A. Determine the magnitudes of the tension force F1 in the deltoid muscle and the force Fs exerted by the shoulder on the humerus (upper-arm bone) to hold the arm in the position shown. Figure P10.35arrow_forwardMany of the elements in horizontal-bar exercises can be modeled by representing the gymnast by four segments consisting of arms, torso (including the head), thighs, and lower legs, as shown in Figure P8.15a. Inertial parameters for a particular gymnast are as follows: Note that in Figure P8.l5a rcg is the distance to the center of gravity measured from the joint closest to the bar and the masses for the arms, thighs, and legs include both appendages. I is the moment of inertia of each segment about its center of gravity. Determine the distance from the bar to the center of gravity of the gymnast for the two positions shown in Figures P8.15b and P8.15c. Figure P8.15arrow_forward
- BIO When a gymnast performing on the rings executes the iron cross, he maintains the position at rest shown in Figure P10.85a. In this maneuver, the gymnasts feet (not shown) are off the floor. The primary muscles involved in supporting this position are the latissimus dorsi (lats) and the pectoralis major (pecs). One of the rings exerts an upward fore Fh on a hand as shown in Figure P10.85b. The force Fs is exerted by the shoulder joint on the arm. The latissimus dorsi and pectoralis major muscles exert a total force Fm on the arm. (a) Using the information in the figure, find the magnitude of the force Fm. (b) Suppose an athlete in training cannot perform the iron cross but can hold a position similar to the figure in which the arms make a 45 angle with the horizontal rather than being horizontal. Why is this position easier for the athlete? Figure P10.85arrow_forwardWhat is the value of the force F (N) required to balance the system in the figure?

The forces on the lower leg when the leg is extended are modeled as in Figure P8.35b, where T is the force of ten- a sion in the tendon, w is the force of gravity acting on the lower leg, and F is the force of gravity acting on the foot. Find T when the ten- 25.0° T don is at an angle of 25.0° with the tibia, assuming that w = 30.0 N, F = 12.5 N, and the leg is extended at an angle 0 of 40.0° with the ver- Figure P8.35 tical.

The 0.50 m long trayhas a mass of 0.20 kg and holds a 0.40 kg plate of food 0.20 m from the right edge.Barry holds the tray by the left edge with one hand, using his thumb as the fulcrum, andpushes up 0.10 m from the fulcrum with his finger tips.a. How much upward force must his finger tips exert to keep the tray level? b. How might Barry make the tray easier to carry if he chooses to use only one hand?arrow_forwardA solid iron sphere A rolls down an inclined plane, while identical sphere B slides down the plane in a frictionless manner.a.
