A cylindrical soda can has a radius of 6cm and a height of 12cm. When the can is full of soda, the center of mass of the contents of the can is 6cm above the base on the axis of the can (halfway along the axis of the can). As the can is drained, the center of mass descends for a while. However, when the can is empty (filled only with air), the center of mass is once again 6cm above the base on the axis of the can. Find the depth of soda in the can for which the center of mass is at its lowest point. Neglect the mass of the can, and assume the density of the soda is 1g/cm3 and the density of air is 0.001g/cm3.

A long straight cylindrical shell has an inner radius Ri and an outer radius R0.

A long straight cylindrical shell has an inner radius Ri and an outer radius R0. It carries a current I, uniformly distributed over its cross section. A wire is parallel to the cylinder axis, in the hollow region (r < Ri). The magnetic field is zero everywhere outside the shell (r > R0).We conclude that the wire: A) is on the cylinder axis and carries current I in the same direction as the current in the shell B) may be anywhere in...
