A ring of mass M and radius R is suspended from a light inextensible thread, and two beads (each of mass m) are constrained to slide on it without friction, as shown in the figure below. The beads are released simultaneously from the top of the ring (at = 0) and they slide down opposite sides symmetrically. At the instant of release, the tension in the thread is initially positive. The ring may start to rise depending on the mass ratio M/m.

A uniform rod of mass 200 g and length 100 cm is free to rotate in a horizontal plane around a fixed vertical axis through its center, perpendicular to its length. Two small beads, each of mass 20 g, are mounted in grooves along the rod. Initially, the two beads are held by catches on opposite sides of the rod’s center, 10 cm from the axis of rotation. With the beads in this position, the rod is rotating with an angular velocity of 10.0 rad/s. When the catches are released, the beads slide outward along the rod. (a) What is the rod’s angular velocity when the beads reach the ends of the rod? (b) What is the rod’s angular velocity if the beads fly off the rod?
The mass of a hoop of radius 1.0 m is 6.0 kg. It rolls across a horizontal surface with a speed of 10.0 m/s. (a) How much work is required to stop the hoop? (b) If the hoop starts up a surface at 30 to the horizontal with a speed of 10.0 m/s, how far along the incline will it travel before stopping and rolling back down?

Answer the question in full details, thank you very much, Answer on the correct significant figures: A metal can containing condensed mushroom soup has a mass of m = 247 g, a height of h = 15.7 cm,and a diameter of D = 6.67 cm. Itis placed at rest on its side at the top of a L = 3.11 m-long incline thatis at an angle of Angle = 24.3 deg to the horizontal; the can is then released to roll down the incline, reachingthe bottom t = 1.53 s later. Assuming energy is conserved, calculate the moment of inertia of the can inkg-cm^2 (not kg-m^2).
A 12-kg mass package is in a non-atmosphere asteroid of mass 1.7 x 1014 kg and radius 2,000 m. The package is released with a powerful spring whose stiffness is 315 N / m. After being launched, the package is observed to have a speed of 3.0 m / s when it is at a distance of 5,000 m from the center of the asteroid. Calculate how much the spring was compressed to launch the package?
