1 | [katex]F_{\text{static max}} = \mu_s \times m \times g[/katex] | Maximum static friction force (F_static max) is the product of the coefficient of static friction (μs), mass of the coin (m), and acceleration due to gravity (g). |
2 | [katex]m = 5.0 , \text{g} = 0.005 , \text{kg}[/katex] | Convert the mass of the coin from grams to kilograms. |
3 | [katex]F_{\text{static max}} = 0.80 \times 0.005 \times 9.81[/katex] | Substitute the values of μs, m, and g (9.81 m/s²) into the static friction formula. |
4 | [katex]\omega = \frac{60 \times 2 \pi}{60}[/katex] | Convert the angular velocity from rpm to radians per second (rad/s). |
5 | [katex]F_{\text{centripetal}} = m \times r \times \omega^2[/katex] | Centripetal force (F_centripetal) is calculated using the mass of the coin, radius (r), and square of the angular velocity (ω). |
6 | [katex]r = 15 , \text{cm} = 0.15 , \text{m}[/katex] | Convert the radius from centimeters to meters. |
7 | [katex]F_{\text{centripetal}} = 0.005 \times 0.15 \times (\frac{60 \times 2 \pi}{60})^2[/katex] | Substitute the values of m, r, and ω into the centripetal force formula. |
8 | [katex]F_{\text{centripetal}} , \text{vs} , F_{\text{static max}}[/katex] | Compare the centripetal force with the maximum static friction force to determine if the coin slides off. |
The coin does not slide off the turntable, as the required centripetal force to keep the coin on the turntable is less than the maximum static friction force. The maximum static friction force is approximately 0.03924 N, while the required centripetal force is .0296 N.
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
The diagram above shows a marble rolling down an incline, the bottom part of which has been bent into a loop. The marble is released from point A at a height of 0.80 m above the ground. Point B is the lowest point and point C the highest point of the loop. The diameter of the loop is 0.35 m. The mass of the marble is 0.050 kg. Friction forces and any gain in kinetic energy due to the rotating of the marble can be ignored. When answering the following questions, consider the marble when it is at point C.
Find the escape speed from a planet of mass 6.89 x 1025 kg and radius 6.2 x 106 m.
A discus is held at the end of an arm that starts at rest. The average angular acceleration of [katex]54 \, \text{rad/s}^2 [/katex] lasts for 0.25 s. The path is circular and has radius 1.1 m.
Note: A discuss is a heavy, flattened circular object for throwing.
An 80 kg person sits in a swing that goes around in a circle. The chain connecting the swing to the center of the ride is 8 m long and it makes and angle of 40° with the horizontal. What is the speed of the person going around in a circle?
In the figure above, the marble rolls down the track and around a loop-the-loop of radius \( R \). The marble has mass \( m \) and radius \( r \). What minimum height \( h_{min} \) must the track have for the marble to make it around the loop-the-loop without falling off? Express your answer in terms of the variables \( R \) and \( r \).
No.

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
