Problem 36P The piston of a machine exerts a constant force on a ball as it moves horizontally through a distance of 15 cm. You use a motion detector to measure the speed of five different balls as they come off the piston; the data are shown below. Use theory to find two quantities that, when grap

Imagine that this world is perfectly rigid, uniform, and spherical and is spinning about its usual axis at its usual rate. A huge mountain of mass 10-8 earth masses is now added at colatitude 60, causing the earth to begin the free precession described in Section 10.8. How long will it take the North
