A centrifuge rotor rotating at \( 9200 \) \( \text{rpm} \) is shut off and is eventually brought uniformly to rest by a frictional torque of \( 1.20 \) \( \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \). If the mass of the rotor is \( 3.10 \) \( \text{kg} \) and it can be approximated as a solid cylinder of radius \( 0.0710 \) \( \text{m} \), through how many revolutions will the rotor turn before coming to rest? The moment of inertia of a cylinder is given by \( \frac{1}{2} m r^2 \).
A rubber ball and a piece of clay have equal masses. They are dropped from the same height on horizontal steel platform. The ball bounces back with nearly the same speed with which it hit. The clay sticks to the platform. Choose all that is true about the ball/platform and the clay/platform systems.
A car travels east at a steady \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \) for \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). What is its acceleration during this motion?
An object of mass \( m = 3.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) is attached to one end of a string with negligible mass and length \( L = 0.80 \) \( \text{m} \). The object is released from rest at time \( t = 0 \), when the string is horizontal. At time \( t = t_1 \) the object is at the location shown in the figure, where the string is vertical. Which of the following is most nearly the magnitude of the tension in the string at time \( t = t_1 \)?
Ben’s favorite ride at the Barrel-O-Fun Amusement Park is the Flying Umbrella, which is lifted by a hydraulic jack. The operator activates the ride by applying a force of \( 72 \) \( \text{N} \) to a \( 3.0 \) \( \text{cm} \) wide cylindrical piston, which holds the \( 20,000 \) \( \text{N} \) ride off the ground. What is the diameter of the piston that holds the ride?
A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s. It next maintains the velocity it has reached for 10 s. Then it slows down at a steady rate of 2.0 m/s2 for 4.0 s. What is the final speed of the car?
When the brakes of an automobile are applied, the road exerts the greatest retarding force
A kickball is rolled by the pitcher at a speed of 10 m/s and it is kicked by another student. The kickball deforms a little during the kick, and then rebounds with a velocity of 15 m/s as its shape restores to a perfect sphere. Select all that must be true about the kickball and the kicking foot system.
Consider a neutron star with a mass equal to the sun, a radius of 10 km, and a rotation period of 1.0 s. What is the speed of a point on the equator of the star?
A 15 g marble moves to the right at 3.5 m/s and makes an elastic head-on collision with a 22-g marble. The final velocity of the 22 g marble is 2.0 m/s to the right, and the final velocity of the 15 g marble is 5.4 m/s to the left. What was the initial velocity of the 22 g marble?
Suppose the water at the top of Niagara Falls has a horizontal speed of \( 2.7 \, \text{m/s} \) just before it cascades over the edge of the falls. At what vertical distance below the edge does the velocity vector of the water point downward at a \( 75^\circ \) angle below the horizontal?
The graph in the figure shows the position of a particle as it travels along the x-axis. At what value of \(t\) is the speed of the particle equal to \(0 \, \text{m/s}\)?
note that the slope of position vs time is velocity. And the graph most closely reemsbles a flat or 0 slope at 3 seconds
