Two ladybugs, one red and one blue but otherwise on a disk of radius R that...
Two ladybugs sit on a rotating disk, as shown in the figure (the ladybugs are at rest with respect to the surface of the disk and do not slip). (Figure 1) Ladybug 1 is halfway between ladybug 2 and the axis of rotation. What is the angular speed of ladybug 1? one-half the angular speed of ladybug the same as the angular speed of ladybug 2 twice the angular speed of ladybug 2 one-quarter the angular speed of ladybug 2...
1). A metal disk with radius, r, is spinning with a constant angular velocity. A red magnet is placed on the disk at and a blue magnet is placed at r. If you compare the tangential speed of the two magnets, a. the red magnet is going half as fast b. the magnets are going the same speed c. the blue magnet is going twice as fast d. the blue magnet is going four times as fast 2). In the...
A solid disk with mass M (1.00 kg) and radius R (0.200 m) is sitting on a frictionless surface. We analyzed the situation at left below, where a force F (2.00 N) is applied for four seconds, by a string that has been wrapped around the outer surface of a cylindrical disk. Two students are debating the following question. ‘The same force is applied for the same amount of time, but this time by a string attached to the edge...
A child pushes her friend (m = 25 kg) located at a radius r = 1.5 m on a merry-go-round (rmgr = 2.0 m, Imgr = 1000 kg*m2) with a constant force F = 90 N applied tangentially to the edge of the merry-go-round (i.e., the force is perpendicular to the radius). The merry-go-round resists spinning with a frictional force of f = 10 N acting at a radius of 1 m and a frictional torque τ = 15 N*m...
