A cockroach starts walking with constant speed v , radially outwards from the center of a disc that's flat and horizontal. The disc rotates with angular speed OMEGA constant , relative to the vertical axis passing through its centre. Using the equations of the movement in non-inertial coordinate systems compute,

a- identify in one or more diagrams all the forces acting on the insect
b- if the coefficient of friction between the insect and the disc is MU ,
how far can the insect walk, before it starts to slip?

A block of mass 4m moves on a flat horizontal surface at speed v, and strikes another block of mass m, that is attached via a horizontal spring to another block of mass 2m. The two masses are stationary. The spring constant is k. All collisions are completely inelastic and there is no friction anywhere. What is the velocity of the center of mass when the spring is ¼ the way to max compression.

As your bus rounds a flat curve at constant speed, a package with mass 0.300kg , suspended from the luggage compartment of the bus by a string 50.0cm long, is found to hang at rest relative to the bus, with the string making an angle of 30.0? with the vertical. In this position, the package is 40.0mfrom the center of curvature of the curve. What is the speed of the bus?

An 10.6 kg object is pulled along a horizontal surface at constant speed. If the coefficient of friction is 0.11, what is the force of friction? An applied force of 10.9 N [right] provides a 9.46 kg object with a net acceleration of 2.31 m/s2 [right] on a flat surface. What is the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the object? A 6.2 kg object is pulled along a horizontal surface by a force of 22.0N. If its...

1) A cylinder of Mass M and radius R, and initial speed V, starts rolling up an incline of angle theta relative to horizontal. Assuming no slipping, how high up does the cylinder get? 2) teeter/totter a) Peewee has mass m and his big buddy Delilah has mass 2m. If Peewee sits at one end of a uniform teeter totter of length L and mass M, how far from the central pivot should Delilah sit (ie on the other end)...

Mass M moves to the right with speed =v along a frictionless horizontal surface and crashes into an equal mass M initially at rest. Upon colliding, the two masses stick together and move with speed V to the right. Notice that v and V denote different speeds. After the collision the magnitude of the momentum of the system is: (pick all correct answers) 2 M V M V 0 2 M v M v
