| 1 | [katex] F = 23 \, \text{N} [/katex] | The force exerted by the person on the crank handle is given as 23 N. |
| 2 | [katex] r = 0.25 \, \text{m} [/katex] | The radius of the circular path described by the handle is given as 0.25 m. |
| 3 | [katex] T = 1.7 \, \text{s} [/katex] | The time period for one complete turn of the handle is given as 1.7 seconds. |
| 4 | [katex] \text{Circumference} = 2\pi r [/katex] | Calculate the circumference of the circular path which the handle moves in one complete revolution. |
| 5 | [katex] \text{Circumference} = 2\pi \times 0.25 \, \text{m} = 0.5\pi \, \text{m} [/katex] | Substitute the value of [katex] r [/katex] to find the circumference of the path. |
| 6 | [katex] \text{Distance} = \text{Circumference} = 0.5\pi \, \text{m} [/katex] | The distance moved by the handle in one rotation equals the circumference of the circle. |
| 7 | [katex] \text{Work done} = F \times \text{Distance} [/katex] | The work done in one revolution can be calculated using the force and the distance moved in the direction of the force. |
| 8 | [katex] \text{Work done} = 23 \, \text{N} \times 0.5\pi \, \text{m} = 11.5\pi \, \text{J} [/katex] | Substitute the values of [katex] F [/katex] and [katex] \text{Distance} [/katex] to calculate the work done in one revolution. |
| 9 | [katex] \text{Power} = \frac{\text{Work done}}{T} [/katex] | Power is defined as the rate of doing work, thus power can be calculated as work done per unit time. |
| 10 | [katex] \text{Power} = \frac{11.5\pi \, \text{J}}{1.7 \, \text{s}} \approx 21.2 \, \text{W} [/katex] | Substituting the values of work done and time period to calculate the average power. |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."

A sphere starts from rest and rolls down an incline of height \( H = 1.0 \) \( \text{m} \) at an angle of \( 25^\circ \) with the horizontal, as shown above. The radius of the sphere \( R = 15 \) \( \text{cm} \), and its mass \( m = 1.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). The moment of inertia for a sphere is \( \frac{2}{5}mR^2 \). What is the speed of the sphere when it reaches the bottom of the plane?

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]
