The beetle and disk form a closed isolated system and hence must have a constant total angular momentum (b) Increases. The beetle is now moving around the centre of the disk faster than it was before, hence its angular momentum must increase. π£ππππππ = ππ but π£πππ‘ππ = π€π + π£π€ππππππ > π£ππππππ and π = πππ£ sin π. (c) Decreases. Since πππππ‘ππ increases and πΏmust be a constant then ππππ π decreases (πΏ = ππππ π + πππππ‘ππ ) (d) Remains the same. Decreases. Increases. The beetle and disk form a closed isolated system and hence must have a constant total angular momentum. The beetle is now moving around the centre of the disk slower than it was before, hence its angular momentum must decrease. π£ππππππ = ππ but π£πππ‘ππ = π€π − π£π€ππππππ > π£ππππππ and π = πππ£ sin π. Since πππππ‘ππ decreases and πΏmust be a constant then ππππ π increases (πΏ = ππππ π + πππππ‘ππ ) Q9. D, B, A=C. π = ππΏ ππ‘ thus the steeper the gradient the grater the magnitude of the torque acting on the wheel. P41. (a) For the hoop, we use Table 10-2(h) and the parallel-axis theorem to obtain I1 ο½ I com ο« mh 2 ο½ 1 3 mR 2 ο« mR 2 ο½ mR 2 . 2 2 Of the thin bars (in the form of a square), the member along the rotation axis has (approximately) no rotational inertia about that axis (since it is thin), and the member farthest from it is very much like it (by being parallel to it) except that it is displaced by a distance h; it has rotational inertia given by the parallel axis theorem: I 2 ο½ I com ο« mh2 ο½ 0 ο« mR 2 ο½ mR 2 . Now the two members of the square perpendicular to the axis have the same rotational inertia (that is I3 = I4). We find I3 using Table 10-2(e) and the parallel-axis theorem: 1 π 2 1 2 πΌ3 = πΌπππ + ππ = ππ + π ( ) = ππ 2 12 2 3 2 Therefore, the total rotational inertia is I1 ο« I 2 ο« I 3 ο« I 4 ο½ 19 mR 2 ο½ 16 . kg ο m2 . 6 (b) The angular speed is constant: ο·ο½ οο± 2 ο° ο½ ο½ 2.5 rad s. οt 2.5 Thus, L ο½ I totalο· ο½ 4.0 kg ο m2 s. P43. We assume that from the moment of grabbing the stick onward, they maintain rigid postures so that the system can be analyzed as a symmetrical rigid body with center of mass midway between the skaters. (a) The total linear momentum is zero (the skaters have the same mass and equal and opposite velocities). Thus, their center of mass (the middle of the 3.0 m long stick) remains fixed and they execute circular motion (of radius r = 1.5 m) about it. (b) Using Eq. 10-18, their angular velocity (counterclockwise as seen in Fig. 11-47) is ο·ο½ v 1.4 m/s ο½ ο½ 0.93 rad/s. r 1.5 m (c) Their rotational inertia is that of two particles in circular motion at r = 1.5 m, so Eq. 10-33 yields I ο½ ο₯ mr 2 ο½2 ο¨ 50 kg ο©ο¨1.5 m ο© ο½ 225 kg ο m 2 . 2 Therefore, Eq. 10-34 leads to Kο½ 1 2 1 2 I ο· ο½ ο¨ 225 kg ο m 2 ο© ο¨ 0.93rad/s ο© ο½ 98 J. 2 2 (d) Angular momentum is conserved in this process. If we label the angular velocity found in part (a) ο· i and the rotational inertia of part (b) as Ii, we have I iο·i ο½ ο¨ 225 kg ο m 2 ο© ο¨ 0.93rad/s ο© ο½ I f ο· f . The final rotational inertia is ο₯ mr 2 f where rf = 0.5 m so I f ο½ 25 kg ο m2 . Using this value, the above expression gives ο· f ο½ 8.4 rad s. (e) We find Kf ο½ 1 1 2 I f ο· 2f ο½ ο¨ 25 kg ο m 2 ο© ο¨ 8.4 rad/s ο© ο½ 8.8 ο΄102 J. 2 2 (f) We account for the large increase in kinetic energy (part (e) minus part (c)) by noting that the skaters do a great deal of work (converting their internal energy into mechanical energy) as they pull themselves closer — “fighting” what appears to them to be large “centrifugal forces” trying to keep them apart. Chapter 16 Q1. (a) 1, 4, 2, 3. π£ = π π where ωis simply the coefficient of t and k the coefficient of x. Q2. (a) 2. The greatest valley corresponds to when the two waves would interfere constructively in the negative y direction. This means that a valley in 1 must overlap will a valley in the left going wave. The wave 2 has the greatest of all the left going waves meaning that as the two waves overlap there will be a stage where the valley is larger than any valley produced by any other wave. (b) 4. Overlapping these two waves completely results in completely destructive interference. This is not possible with any of the other waves. (c) 3. This will require partial cancelation of the peaks of each wave with a valley in the other wave. The only wave in which this overlap would be possible is 3 and the results of other overlaps is either completely constructive or completely destructive. Q3. a and b move upwards while c and d move downwards. As the wave moves to the right, a and b are approached by a crest (peak) and hence are pushed upwards, whereas c and d are approached by a valley and move downwards. e and f are moving downwards, g and h are moving upwards. The direction motion for the particle is given by the velocity of the particle which is ππ¦ ππ‘ hence the sign of the slope dictates direction of travel Q5. Intermediate (almost destructive). Any shift by a multiple of a full wavelength means that the two waves would be out of phase by 0 rad and the waves would undergo constructive interference. Any shift by half a wavelength will mean that they are out of phase by π rad and they would undergo completely destructive interference. Any shift between these two produces intermediate interference but since we know that it is almost a half multiple shift then the interference is very close to destructive interference Q8 (a) A node. sin 5(0) = sin 0 = 0 hence y’=0 regardless of time. π π (b) An antinode. sin(5(0) + 2 ) = sin( 2 ) = 1 hence π¦ ′ (π‘) = 3 cos 4π‘. Q10 (a) 8 nodes. For the nth harmonic there are n+1 nodes as there are n half wavelengths in the given length (b) An antinode. If n is even then there exists a node at the midpoint while if n is odd then there exists an antinode (c) Longer. Since L is the same and π = 2πΏ π then the higher n the smaller the wavelength. (d) Higher. Since π = π£/π and v has remained the same (the same string is used) then f is higher. P1. Let y1 = 2.0 mm (corresponding to time t1) and y2 = –2.0 mm (corresponding to time t2). Then we find kx + 600t1 + ο¦ = sinο1(2.0/5.0) and kx + 600t2 + ο¦ = sinο1(–2.0/5.0) . Subtracting equations gives 600(t1 – t2) = sinο1(2.0/5.0) – sinο1(–2.0/5.0). Thus we find t1 – t2 = 0.0014 s (or 1.4 ms). P13. Using v = fο¬, we find the length of one cycle of the wave is ο¬ = 320/500 = 0.640 m = 640 mm. From f = 1/T, we find the time for one cycle of oscillation is T = 1/500 = 2.00 ο΄ 10–3 s = 2.00 ms. (a) A cycle is equivalent to 2ο° radians, so that ο°/3 rad corresponds to one-sixth of a cycle. The corresponding length, therefore, is ο¬/6 = 640/6 = 107 mm. (b) The interval 1.00 ms is half of T and thus corresponds to half of one cycle, or half of 2ο° rad. Thus, the phase difference is (1/2)2ο° = ο° rad. P31. The displacement of the string is given by y ο½ ym sin(kx ο ο·t ) ο« ym sin(kx ο ο·t ο« ο¦ ) ο½ 2 ym cos ο¨ 12 ο¦ ο© sin ο¨ kx ο ο·t ο« 12 ο¦ ο© , where ο¦ = ο°/2. The amplitude is A ο½ 2 ym cos ο¨ 12 ο¦ ο© ο½ 2 ym cos(ο° / 4) ο½ 1.41ym .
