A simple pendulum consists of a light rod of length L = 0.9 m anchored at a fixed point (like the ceiling), and a small mass m = 0.5 kg attached to the free end. The configuration is moved to an angle θ = 39 degrees from the vertical and released from re...

In the configuration shown (10m incline for m1 and 8m vertical length for m2 with a spring under it, both masses are linked by a rope and a pulley at the top), the 52.0 N/m spring is unstretched, and the system is released from rest. The mass of the block...

You are riding a merry-go-round on the rim which is turning counterclockwise at a constant angular speed of 0.5 rad/s. Your dog sees you at the 12 o'clock position when he is at the 3 o'clock position. He starts running counterclockwise from rest with an...

A Ferris wheel (a vertical circle for the purposes of this question) with a radius 42.2 m is initially rotating at a constant rate, completing one revolution every 33.2 seconds. Suppose the Ferris wheel begins to decelerate at the rate of 0.0542 rad/s2. [...

A sphere with a moment of inertia 0.465mr2 and mass m and radius r rolls without slipping along an inclined track that is followed by a circular loop (like a roller coaster) of radius R. This happens on a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is g....

A uniform 2.20 kg sign of height 0.600 m hangs freely from a frictionless pivot. (Its extension into the page is irrelevant: treat it as a thin uniform rod of ‘length’ 0.600 m, pivoted about one end.) You throw a point-like 0.248 kg snowball at the sign....

Sadly you have become trapped inside the gravity well of a star of mass M = 6.435×10^30kg. At a distance of r0 = 7.543×10^10m from the center of the star you find yourself moving directly towards it at 5.876×10^4m/s (relative to the star). How fast are yo...

It's actually wf=wi(1/.54^2)=wi(3.43) I can't seem to get the second part though.

If the puck had twice the height, how would the submerged depth change? If the puck had twice the radius, how would the submerged depth change?
