A potter's wheel, with rotational inertia 46 kgm2, is spinning freely at 40 rpm. The potter drops a lump of clay onto the wheel, where it sticks a distance 1.2 m from the rotational axis.
 
  If the subsequent angular speed of the wheel and clay is 32 rpm what is the mass of the clay? A) 8.0 kg
  B) 5.4 kg
  C) 7.0 kg
  D) 8.8 kg

Question 2

A uniform solid sphere of mass 1.5 kg and diameter 30.0 cm starts from rest and rolls without slipping down a 35 incline that is 7.0 m long. (a) Calculate the linear speed of the center of the sphere when it reaches the bottom of the incline.
 
  (b) Determine the angular speed of the sphere about its center at the bottom of the incline. (c) Through what angle (in radians) does this sphere turn as it rolls down the incline? (d) Does the linear speed in (a) depend on the radius or mass of the sphere? Does the angular speed in (b) depend on the radius or mass of the sphere?

Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

(a) 7.5 m/s (b) 50 rad/s (c) 47 rad
(d) The linear speed depends on neither the radius nor the mass of the sphere. The angular speed depends on the radius of the sphere.

Patients who cannot swallow may receive nutrition via a parenteral route—usually, a catheter is inserted through the chest into a large vein going into the heart.

Did you know?

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates’s recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.

Did you know?

People with alcoholism are at a much greater risk of malnutrition than are other people and usually exhibit low levels of most vitamins (especially folic acid). This is because alcohol often takes the place of 50% of their daily intake of calories, with little nutritional value contained in it.

Did you know?

People with high total cholesterol have about two times the risk for heart disease as people with ideal levels.

Did you know?

Walt Disney helped combat malaria by making an animated film in 1943 called The Winged Scourge. This short film starred the seven dwarfs and taught children that mosquitos transmit malaria, which is a very bad disease. It advocated the killing of mosquitos to stop the disease.
