Consider a rigid object consisting of two masses m₁ = 5.5 kg and m₂ = 2.5 kg joined by a massless rod of length d = 0.5 m (i.e. a "dumbbell").
It is positioned in the y-z plane with the rod's midpoint at the origin, making an angle of 45° to the x-axis, as shown in the figure below.

A particle of mass m is located at x = 1, y = 0,2 = 2. Find the tensor of inertia for the
particle relative to the origin. The particle rotates about the z axis through a small angle
a <<1 as shown below.
Show that the moments of inertia are unchanged to second order in a but the products of
inertia can change linearly with a.

- A small bead of mass m=1g moves without friction along the inner surface of a deep spherical cup, which is motionless with respect to the Earth’s surface. The curvature of the cup has radius R=98 mm and center O. For ease of description, let’s pick a coordinate system with origin at the center of curvature of the cup, and a z axis pointing vertically down. a)The bead is deflected from equilibrium and released. Prove that the resulting motion is confined to a vertical plane (say the xz plane) containing the equilibrium and the initial position (point of release).(hint: use forces or torque & angular momentum) b)Prove explicitly that for small deviations from the equilibrium, the system in part “a” behaves as a simple harmonic oscillator (SHO) c)For the system in part “b”, derive the equation of motion x(t) based on the given initial conditions.

It must be strong enough to carry the bending moment exerted by the rower without breaking and it must have the right stiffness. The function is identified to be a beam, loaded in bending. The length L and stiffness S are fixed by the design, leaving the radius R as the only dimensional variable. The mass m of the oar is minimized by choosing materials with large values of the material index. E1/2 %3Darrow_forward
