-During a certain period of time, the angular position of a point object, rotating in a circular orbit of radius 2 m, is given by  θ = 5 + 4 t + 2 t 2, where θ is in radians and t is in seconds. At t = 0, what are the magnitudes of the tangential component and the radial component of the acceleration of the point object?

-The mass of a car, including its four wheels, is 1000 kg. If all wheels have the same moments of inertia as four uniform disks of the same mass [10 kg each] and size as the wheels, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to rotation of the wheels about their axles?

-A disc-shaped pulley, of mass 12 kg and radius 0.2 m, is wrapped around by a long string with one mass connected on each end. The part of the string that is connected to the larger mass has a tension of 5.0 N, while the part of the string connected to the smaller mass has a tension of 3.5 N. What is the angular acceleration, α, of the pulley?

A body of mass 15.0 kg is traveling at 5.3 m/s along the positive x-axis with no external force acting. At a certain instant an internal explosion occurs, splitting the body into two chunks of 7.5 kg mass each. The explosion gives the chunks an additional 16 J of kinetic energy. Neither chunk leaves the line of original motion. Determine the speed and direction of motion of each of the chunks after the explosion. Enter the larger velocity. Enter the...
