1 1 About what axis is the rotational inertia of your body the least? Vertical Axis 5 The figure shows three small spheres that rotate about a vertical axis. The perpendicular distance between the axis and the center of each sphere is given. Rank the three spheres according to their rotational inertia about that axis, greatest first. 2 If two circular disks of the same weight and thickness are made from metals having different densities, which disk, if either, will have the larger rotational inertia about its central axis? For both disks I = 1/2MR 2. The disk with the greater density has the smaller radius and the smaller rotational inertia. All the same 3 Five solids are shown in cross section (shown in the figure). The cross sections have equal heights and equal maximum widths. The solids have equal masses. (a) Which one has the largest rotational inertia about a perpendicular axis through the center of mass?

Explain your logic 6 The figure shows three kg particles that have been glued to a rod of length L = 6.00 cm and negligible mass. The assembly can rotate around a perpendicular axis through point 0 at the left end. We remove one particle (that is, 33% of the mass). (a) By what percentage does the rotational inertia of the assembly around the rotation axis decrease when that removed particle is the innermost one? (b) By what percentage does the rotational inertia of the assembly around the rotation axis decrease when that removed particle is the outermost one? The hoop has the largest rotational inertia since all of the matter is at a large distance form the axis. On the other hand, most of the matter comprising the prism is relatively close to the axis so this object has the smallest rotational inertia. 4 Why is it more difficult to do a sit-up with your hands behind your head than when they are outstretched in front of you?

22 118 The center of oscillation of a physical pendulum has this interesting property: if an impulsive force (assumed horizontal and in the plane of oscillation) acts at the center of oscillation, no reaction is felt at the point of support. Baseball players (and players of many other sports) know that unless the ball hits the bat at this point (called the "sweet spot" by athletes), the reaction due to the impact will sting their hands. To prove this property, let the stick in the figure at the left simulate a baseball bat. Suppose that a horizontal force F (due to impact with the ball) acts toward the right at P, the center of oscillation. The batter is assumed to hold the bat at 0, the point of support of the stick. (a) What acceleration does point 0 undergo as a result of F? (b) What angular acceleration is produced by F about the center of mass of the stick? (c) As a result of the angular acceleration in (b), what linear acceleration does point 0 undergo? (d) Considering the magnitudes and directions of the accelerations in (a) and (c), convince yourself that P is indeed the "sweet spot." s
