A rope of negligible mass is wrapped around a 225-kg solid cylinder of radius 0.400 m. The cylinder is suspended several meters off the ground with its axis oriented horizontally, and turns on that axis without friction. (a) If a 75.0-kg man takes hold of the free end of the rope and falls under the force of gravity, what is his acceleration? m/s² (b) What is the angular acceleration of the cylinder? rad/s2 (c) If the mass of the rope were not neglected, what would happen to the angular acceleration of the cylinder as the man falls?

2. The flight of a model rocket can be modeled as follows. During the first 0.15 s the rocket is propelled upward by the rocket engine with a force of 16 N. The rocket then flies up while slowing down under the force of gravity. After it reaches the apex, the rocket starts to fall back down. When its downward velocity reaches 20 m/s, a parachute opens (assumed to open instantly), and the rocket continues to drop at a constant speed of 20 m/s until it hits the ground. Write a program that calculates and plots the speed and altitude of the rocket as a function of time during the flight.

An aluminum wire having a cross-sectional area equal to 4.60 x 10-6 m? carries a current of 7.50 A. The density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm³. Assume each aluminum atom supplies one conduction electron per atom. Find the drift speed of the electrons in the wire. 1.95E-4 The equation for the drift velocity includes the number of charge carriers per volume, which in this case is equal to the number of atoms per volume. How do you calculate that if you know the density and the atomic weight of aluminum? mm/s
Suppose that a parachutist with linear drag (m=50 kg, c=12.5kg/s) jumps from an airplane flying at an altitude of a kilometer with a horizontal velocity of 220 m/s relative to the ground. a) Write a system of four differential equations for x,y,vx=dx/dt and vy=dy/dt. b) If theinitial horizontal position is defined as x=0, use Euler’s methods with t=0.4 s to compute the jumper’s position over the first 40 s. c) Develop plots of y versus t and y versus x. Use the plot to graphically estimate when and where the jumper would hit the ground if the chute failed to open.
