Check Your Understanding Suppose you have a macroscopic salt crystal (that is, a crystal that is large enough to be visible with your unaided eye). It is made up of a huge number of unit cells. Is the center of mass of this crystal necessarily at the geometric center of the crystal?
Two racquetballs, each having a mass of 170 g, are placed in a glass jar as shown in Figure P12.43. Their centers lie on a straight line that makes a 45 angle with the horizontal. (a) Assume the walls are frictionless and determine P1, P2, and P3. (b) Determine the magnitude of the force exerted by the left ball on the right ball. Figure P12.43
During a visit to New York City, Lil decides to estimate the height of the Empire State Building (Fig. P1.57). She measures the angle of elevation of the spire atop the building as 20. After walking 9.0 102 ft closer to the iconic building, she finds the angle to be 25. Use Lils data to estimate the height h of the Empire State Building.
For a summer job you are working as an engineering intern for a metal fabricator. You are assigned the task of determining the center of mass an object to be made from a very thin sheet of airplane aluminum. The rough drawing you are given to work from is as shown below, and the outside radius of the object is to be 1.36 m. Xcm m Ycm = m R R 2
A uniform silver sphere and a uniform gold sphere have the same mass. What is the ratio of the radius of the silver sphere to the radius of the gold sphere?
You have three identical, uniform, square pieces of wood, each with side length L. You stack the three pieces of wood at the edge of the horizontal top of a table. The first block extends a distance L/4 past the edge of the table. The next block extends a distance L/4 past the edge of the first block, so a distance L/2 past the edge of the table. The third block extends a distance L/4 past the edge of the block beneath it, so 3L/4 past the edge of the table. The stack is unstable if the center of mass of the stack extends beyond the edge of the table. Calculate the horizontal location of the center of mass of the three-block stack. Suppose that the origin of the horizontal x-axis is at the edge of the table, and the x-axis points toward the table's center.

Global warming is a cause for concern because even small changes in the Earth’s temperature can have significant consequences. For example, if the Earth’s polar ice caps were to melt entirely, the resulting additional water in the oceans would flood many coastal areas. Model the polar ice as havingmass 2.30 × 1019 kg and forming two flat disks of radius 6.00 × 105 m. Assume the water spreads into an unbroken thin, spherical shell after it melts. Calculate the resulting change in the duration of one day both in seconds and as a percentage.
A rectangular cantilever beam AB has point A positioned at the origin of the coordinate system and point B at coordinates (1.2, -0.3, 2.4) m.

You use a millimeter ruler to measure the height of a rail curb. The bottom of the ruler is resting on the table. The place where the height measurement is taken is a little curved, so it is difficult to identify very precisely where the measurement should be taken. Also, it's a bit tricky to make sure the ruler is perfectly vertical (it might be leaning forward or backward a bit). When you take the measurement, you measure 12.9 mm. By moving the ruler a little, you are confident that the correct measurement is somewhere between 12.7 mm and 13.3 mm. Indicate the value that you will record in your logbook, as well as the uncertainty that you will attribute to it. Give your answers in mm.
