A hollow sphere of mass M and radius R is hit by a pendulum of mass m and length L that is raised at an angle θ. After the collision the pendulum comes to a stop and the sphere rolls forward into a spring with stiffness k on an incline of ϕ. Find an expression for how far ∆x the spring compresses along the incline. Use only m, L, M, R, θ, ϕ, k and appropriate constants.

Consider a hollow, infinite sphere of radius R. the hollow space is free of charge, but a surface charge sigma = sigma not cos theta exists on the inside surface of the conductor at s =R. Can this sphere be a conductor? ( I.e, can you induce this charge on a conducting surface somehow)

A sphere of mass M, radius r, and moment of inertial I = Mr2 (where is a dimensionless constant which depends on how the mass is distributed in the sphere) is placed on a track at a height h above the lowest point on the track. The sphere is released, and rolls without slipping. It reaches a horizontal surface which subsequently bends into a vertical loop-the-loop of radius R, as in Fig. 2 below. a) When it reaches the top...

An insulating sphere of mass M and radius R is wrapped with N coils of wire around its equator. The sphere is placed on an incline at an angle θ in a uniform magnetic field of strength B. The goal is to keep the sphere from rolling down the incline by having a current in the coils. [Recall, the force of static friction at the point of contact creates a torque about the center of the sphere, which is what...

Consider a conducting hollow sphere with radius R that is placed in a homogeneous electric field E_0 = E_0 e_z a) Calculate the electrostatic potential φ_0(r) for the homogeneous electric field E_0= E_0 e_z only and write the result in spherical coordinates. b) Assume that the sphere is grounded i.e. put the potential φ(R)=0 and calculate the electrostatic potential φ(r)=0 inside and outside the sphere. Hint: Consider that the electrostatic potential far away from the sphere should just give rise...

A hollow ball has mass M=2.0kg, radius R=0.35m, and moment of inertia about the center of mass I=(2/3)MR2. The ball is thrown without bouncing, to the right with an initial speed 2.0m/s and backspin. The hoop moves across the rough floor (coefficient of sliding friction = 0.25) and returns to its original position with a speed of 0.5 m/s. All surfaces and the hoop may be treated as ideally rigid. Develop an expression for angular velocity of the hoop as...
