4 Honos Physics/Cicula Motion & Toque Test Review Page 4 of 7 SOLUTIONS Solutions to Cicula Motion & Toque Test Review 1. a) When an object moves with unifom cicula motion, the net foce exeted on the object points towads the cente of the cicula path. Theefoe the fictional foce exeted on the ca points towads the cente of the cicula path. Thee ae no foces pointing away fom the cente of the cicula path. 1. b) Tue. 1. c) Tue. 1. d) False. An object is in equilibium when F = 0 N and τ = 0 N m. 2. C > A > B > D. Recall that the fomula fo the toque is τ = F l, whee F is the component of the foce that is pependicula to the leve am and l is the length of the leve am. The leve am is a vecto that points fom the pivot axis of otation) to the point whee the foce is applied. Since F D points paallel to its leve am, F D, = 0 N. Theefoe F D geneates the smallest toque. FA and F B ae closest to the pivot, and theefoe have the shotest leve am. FA points pependicula to the leve am, while F B points at an angle, theefoe F B, < F A, and, as a esult, τ B < τ A. FC has the lagest leve am aside fom F D ) and points pependicula to its leve am, as a esult F C geneates the lagest toque. 3. a) F N F g 3. b) When the ca dives ove the top of the bump, the ca is taveling along a cicula path. Wheneve an object tavels along a cicula path, the net foce acting on the object must point towads the cente of the cicula path neve away). Since the gavitational foce points towads the cente of the cicula path and the nomal foce points away fom the cente, the gavitational foce must be geate than the nomal foce so that the net foce acting on the ca points towads the cente of the cicula path. 3. c) The ca will just baely lose contact with the oad when the Nomal Foce exeted by the oad on the ca goes to zeo. When this happens the only foce acting on the ca is the gavitational foce. Since the gavitational foce points towads the cente of the cicula path, we can identify it as the centipetal foce and set it equal to m v 2 /. Using this to solve fo v gives: F g = m v2 m g = m v2 g = v2 v = g = 14 m s 4. a)

5 Honos Physics/Cicula Motion & Toque Test Review Page 5 of 7 SOLUTIONS F N F g 4. b) When the motocycle goes though the loop at the slowest possible speed, the bike momentaily loses contact with the gound at the vey top of the loop. At this point, the only foce exeted on the motocycle is the gavitational foce. Since the foce is pointing towads the cente of the cicula path, we may set it equal to m v 2 /. Using this to solve fo v gives: F g = m v2 m g = m v2 g = v2 v = g = 4.95 m s 4. c) When the motocycle exceeds the minimum speed, the motocycle pushes against the top of the loop. As a esult, the loop exets a downwad nomal foce on the motocycle. Since both of these foces point towads the cente of the cicula path, the nomal foce and gavitational foce combine to cause the cicula motion. Theefoe, F g + F N = m v 2 /. Reaanging this fomula to solve fo F N gives: F g + F N = m v2 F N = m v2 m g = 4530 N 5. a) Revolutions pe minute is a fequency. Since we will be doing calculations with this fequency, we should convet this numbe into SI units of evolutions pe second. Since thee ae 60 seconds in a evolution, we see that the fequency is: 45 ev. min 1 min ) 60 s = 0.75 ev. s The fequency is elated to the peiod accoding to: f = 1/T. Reaanging this to solve fo T gives: T = 1 f = 1.33 s

6 Honos Physics/Cicula Motion & Toque Test Review Page 6 of 7 SOLUTIONS 5. b) The angula fequency is simply ω = 2π f. So, ω = 4.71 adians second. 5. c) a = ω 2 = 0.09 m) = 2.0 m s adians ) 2 second 5. d) f When the coin sits on a spinning ecod, the fictional foce causes the coin to undego unifom cicula motion. Theefoe, the fictional foce equals m a c. The maximum acceleation is given by the maximum static fictional foce. Using f = m a c along with f = µ m g allows us to solve fo the maximum acceleation. f max s = m a c,max µ s m g = m a c,max a c,max = µ s g = 2.94 m s 2 Since the static fictional foce can geneate a maximum acceleation of 2.94 m s 2 and the centipetal acceleation of the coin esting on the oute edge of the ecod is only 2.0 m, the coin does not slide off s2 the edge of the ecod. 6. The poblem asks us to elate the peiod and adius of two obits. Keple s Thid Law of Planetay Motion says: R 3 /T 2 is the same fo any two satellites obiting the same body. Theefoe: R 3 A T 2 A R 3 B = R B = = R3 B TB 2 TB = T A TB T A ) 2 R 3 A 24.0 h 8.0 h ) 2 3 RA = ) m ) ) m)

7 Honos Physics/Cicula Motion & Toque Test Review Page 7 of 7 SOLUTIONS 7. a) The balance beam does not move, theefoe the beam must satisfy the conditions fo equilibium: F = 0 N and τ = 0 N. To find the total foce exeted by both of the suppots we use the fist condition. F F l F g,g F g,b F = 0 N F l + F F g,g F g,b = 0 N F l + F = F g,g + F g,b = m g g + m b g = 50 kg) 9.80 m ) s kg) 9.80 m ) s 2 = 5390 N 7. b) To find the foce exeted by the suppot on the ight end of the balance beam, we use τ = 0 N m. Recall that τ = F l, whee l is the length of the leve am. Also emembe that the gavitational foce exeted on the beam is applied to the cente of the beam 0.25 m fom eithe end). Since we ae inteested in the foce exeted on the ight end of the balance beam, I will choose to daw the axis of otation stating fom the the left end of the beam this way the toque caused by the foce on the ight side of the beam factos into the equation). As a esult, the toque geneated by the foce exeted on the left end of the beam is zeo since the leve am fo this foce will be zeo). Since the foce exeted by the suppot on the ight end of the beam tends to otate the beam counte-clockwise, while the gavitational foces of the beam and the gymnast end to otate the beam clockwise, these toques will have opposite signs. Futhemoe, since the beam is in equilibium, these toques must cancel so that τ = 0 N m. τ = τ g,g + τ g,b F ) = F g,g 0.3 m) + F g,b 0.25 m) ) ) 0.3 m 0.25 m F = F g,g + F g,b ) ) 0.3 m 0.25 m = m g g) + m b g) = 50 kg) 9.8 m ) ) 0.3 m s kg) 9.8 m ) ) 0.25 m s 2 = 2744 N 7. c) In pat a) we found that F l + F = 5390 N. Combining this with the esult we found fom pat b), we see that F l = 2646 N.
