Problem 74P A student on a piano stool rotates freely with an angular speed of 2.95 rev/s. The student holds a 1.25-kg mass in the outstretched arm, 0.759 m from the axis of rotation. The combined moment of inertia of the student and the stool, ignoring the two masses, is 5.43 kg -m2, a value that re

A physical pendulum consists of an 85-cm-long, 240-g-mass, uniform wooden rod hung from a nail near one end (Fig. 14-38). The motion is damped because of friction in the pivot; the damping force is approximately t proportional to d6/dt. The rod is set in oscillation by displacing it 15 from its equil

Sensory receptors convert stimulus energy to action potentials. Sensory receptors are specialized cells that detect stimuli. Sensory transduction converts stimulus energy to receptor potentials, which trigger action potentials that are transmitted to the brain. Action potential frequency reflects sti
