Chapter 10 Problem 87GP

Question

Problem 87GP

Referring to the previous problem, (a) estimate the linear speed of a point on the rim of the rotating disk. (b) By comparing the arc length between the two white lines to the distance covered by the BB, estimate the speed of the BB. (c) What radius must the disk have for the linear speed of a point on its rim to be the same as the speed of the BB? (d) Suppose a1.0-g lump of putty is stuck to the rim of the disk. What centripetal force is required to hold the putty in place?

Solution

Step 1 of 5)

The first step in solving 10 problem number 97 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Problem 87GPReferring to the previous problem, (a) estimate the linear speed of a point on the rim of the rotating disk. (b) By comparing the arc length between the two white lines to the distance covered by the BB, estimate the speed of the BB. (c) What radius must the disk have for the linear speed of a point on its rim to be the same as the speed of the BB? (d) Suppose a1.0-g lump of putty is stuck to the rim of the disk. What centripetal force is required to hold the putty in place?
From the textbook chapter Rotational Kinematics and Energy you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
