Find the power law. a is constant, under the b) At the moment when the particle passes through the position 0, receives an impulse in the direction of its movement, which zeros the radial component of its velocity and doubles the transverse. Prove that the mobile will write the curve 3α I= 2 + cos √√3 2arrow_forwardQuestion 9: A half uniform annulus of inner and outer radii R1 and R2 has a non- uniform surface mass density given by o = oor where oo is a positive constant and r is the radial distance from the origin (radial coordinate in the cylindrical coordinates) as shown in Figure 6. Find i) the mass of the half annulus, and ii) the position of the center of mass, i.e., (xem, Yem) the center of mass in terms of R1 and R2.

What is the speed with which they collide ? The radius of each star is 104 km. Assume the stars to remain undistorted until they collide. (Use the known value of G)arrow_forward

R2 M X Figure 6arrow_forwardA projectile is fired from a gun with an initial velocity of 400 m/s at an angle of 53◦ above the horizontal shown in the figure. When the projectile is at the top of its trajectory, an internal explosion causes a separation into two parts of equal masses. One part falls to the ground as though it has been released from rest at that point. Find the distance between the gun and the point of impact of the second part immediately after the explosion.(Take g = 10 m/s2 , cos 53◦ = 0.6 and sin 53◦ = 0.8.)arrow_forwardConsider the sun and its largest planet Jupiter. On the line joining them, how far from the center of the sun os their center of mass? Is it within or outside the sun? (Jupiter-sun distance is 778 x 106 km, diameter of the sun is 1.4 x 106 km, the sun is 1000 times as massive as Jupiter.)arrow_forward
- Consider a homogeneous billiard ball of mass m and radius R thatmoves on horizontal table. Gravity acts downward. The coefficientof kinetic friction between the ball and the table is ?, and you are toassume that there is no work done by friction for pure rolling motion.At time ? = 0, the ball is struck with cue, which delivers a force pulseof short duration.Its impulse is ? = ∫-E+E F(t) dt a) The point of contact between the cue and the ball is at the“equator” and the direction of the force is toward the center ofthe ball. Calculate the time at which pure rolling begins. What isthe final speed of the center of mass of the ball? b) At what height ℎ above the center must the cue strike the ball sothat rolling motion starts immediately (see Figure)arrow_forwardOne astronaut is 75kg, and another who is 3.4 m away in the x-direction is 85kg. How far from the first astronaut is their mutual center of mass? Do not actually solve the problem numerically or algebraically, just pick the one equation and define the relevant knowns and single unknown.arrow_forwardSome asteroid is moving towards a base in space, such that the base is positioned on the xaxis and is 2000 meters wide on the xaxis. This asteroid, moving at 500 m/s along the yaxis, is on a collision course targeted at the center of the base. However, explosives are planted on the asteroid, which makes it explode into two separate pieces. The two separate pieces will have masses of of m and 2m. 1. Please draw the trajectory of the CM of the asteroid as well as the system after the explosion (with the two separate masses). 2. At the same time, the two split pieces of asteroid reach the base. The piece with mass, m, passes by the right side of the bass at 1800m from the edge of the bass. Will the asteroid piece with mass, 2m, hit the base? Please prove if it will or will not. 3. The asteroid piece of mass, m, will be moving at a direction that is makes a 30 degree angle along the x axis, and its speed will be 1000 m/s. What is the speed of the split asteroid of mass, 2m?arrow_forward
- Two circular plates, each of mass 4 kg, are rigidly connected by a rod AB of negligible mass and are suspended from point A as shown. Knowing that an impulse is applied at point D is applied at point, determine (a) the velocity of the mass center G of the assembly, (b) the angular velocity of the assembly.arrow_forwardA rod 2 meters long has a linear density of p(x) = 8 - 3x. How far, in meters, is the center of mass of the rod if measured from the left?arrow_forwardThree spheres of masses 2 kg, 6 kg and 12 kg are moving with velocities of 12 m/s, 4 m/s and 2 m/s respectively in a straight line. Show that after impact of first and second as well as second and third, the first two spheres will be brought to rest. Take e = 1.0.arrow_forward
