Chapter 6, Problem 67PQ
Problems 67. 70. 71. and 72 are grouped.
A A block of mass M is placed on a frictionless plane. The plane is inclined at an angle θ, and the block is a distance d from its end. Of course, we would expect the block to slip down the plane. Suppose we revolve the incline around the vertical axis shown in Figure P6.67 instead. At what period of revolution will the block remain in place on the plane?

Wrecking balls are used to demolish old buildings. A 720 kg steel ball is suspended from a
10-m-long cable on a crane. A hook on the crane slowly pulls the ball back, then releases
it. The ball's speed at the lowest point in its arc, just before striking the building, is
4.5 m/s
Part A
At the lowest point in the ball's arc,
O the tension in the cable is less than mg because the ball is moving down.
O the tension in the cable is equal to mg because tension and gravity are the only forces and they balance.
O the tension in the cable is greater than mg because there has to be a net upward force.
Submit
Part B
What is the tension in the cable when the ball is at its lowest point?

- Two masses, m and M, are released from rest at a height H above the ground. Mass m slides down a curved surface while M slides down an incline as shown. Both surfaces are frictionless and M > m. 45° L Which of the following statements is true? O The time it takes for m to reach the end of the surface is longer because the path it takes is longer. O The time it takes is the same since both masses are released from the same height. sinc O The time it takes for M to reach the end of the incline is less because its horizontal acceleration is larger. Work O The time it takes form to reach the end of the surface is shorter because it has a larger acceleration initially and Work therefore builds speed more quickly. so False O The time it takes is the same since both masses have the same displacement.
