Similarly, if we use the symbol A for the surface area of a cylinder and V for its volume, then [A] = L 2 and [V] = L 3 . If we use the symbol m for the mass of the cylinder and \(\rho\) for the density of the material from which the cylinder is made, then [m] = M and [\(\rho\)] = ML −3 .

(a) How much work has the force done at the instant the disk has completed three revolutions, starting from rest? (b) Determine the torque due to the force, then calculate the work done by this torque at the instant the disk has completed three revolutions? (c) What is the angular velocity at that instant? (d) What is the power output of the force at that instant?

      If we define a system that consists of both Philae and Comet 67/P, then there is no net external force on this system, and thus the momentum of this system is conserved. (We’ll neglect the gravitation...If we define a system that consists of both Philae and Comet 67/P, then there is no net external force on this system, and thus the momentum of this system is conserved. (We’ll neglect the gravitational force of the sun.) Thus, if we calculate the change of momentum of the lander, we automatically have the change of momentum of the comet.

      We must include the Mars rock in the calculation of the moment of inertia, so we have \[I_{Total} = I_{R} + I_{F} + I_{MR} = 3.17\; kg\; \cdotp m^{2}\] and \[L = I \omega = (3.17\; kg\; \cdotp m^{2})(...We must include the Mars rock in the calculation of the moment of inertia, so we have \[I_{Total} = I_{R} + I_{F} + I_{MR} = 3.17\; kg\; \cdotp m^{2}\] and \[L = I \omega = (3.17\; kg\; \cdotp m^{2})(0.1 \pi\; rad/s) = 0.32 \pi\; kg\; \cdotp m^{2}/s \ldotp\] Now the angular momentum vector is directed into the page in the \(- \hat{k}\) direction, by the right-hand rule, since the robot arm is now rotating clockwise.

(a) If the damping is small (b < \(\sqrt{4mk}\)), the mass oscillates, slowly losing amplitude as the energy is dissipated by the non-conservative force(s).

(a) Show that the spring exerts an upward force of 2.00mg on the object at its lowest point. (b) If the spring has a force constant of 10.0 N/m, is hung horizontally, and the position of the free end of the spring is marked as y = 0.00 m, where is the new equilibrium position if a 0.25-kg-mass object is hung from …
