A wind turbine blade with a radius of 48 m and a mass of 850 kg is rotating at 0.75 rev/s. Assuming all of the mass is located at the end of the blade, what is the net force (in N) acting on the end of the turbine blade? (This net force, supplied by interatomic forces in the metal, is the centripetal force required to keep each atom in circular motion.)
The figure below shows a uniform disk, with mass M = 4 kg and radius R = 0.2 m, mounted on a fixed horizontal axle.

A 25.5 kg mass (m) is suspended by the cable assembly as shown in the figure. The cables have no mass of their own. 0, The cable to the left (T¡ ) of the mass makes an angle of 0.00° with the horizontal, and the cable to the right (T2) makes an angle (02) of 40.6". If the mass is at rest, what is the tension in T, T, each of the cables, Tị and T2? The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s². T = N m T2 = N
Zorch, an archenemy of Superman, decides to slow Earth’s rotation to once per 28.0 h by exerting an opposing force at and parallel to the equator. Superman is not immediately concerned, because he knows Zorch can onlyexert a force of 4.00×107 N (a little greater than a Saturn V rocket’s thrust). How long must Zorch push with this force to accomplish his goal? (This period gives Superman time to devote to other villains.) Explicitly show how you follow the steps found in Problem-Solving Strategy for Rotational Dynamics.
The polar ice caps have a combined mass of about 2.55 x 1019 kg. If all of the ice in the polar ice caps melted, by how much time would the length of a day (Earth's rotational period) change? For simplicity, assume each ice cap is an identical thin solid disk with a radius of 6.40 x 105 m. Find the change both in seconds and as a percentage of duration of a day. change in time percent change S %
