In the game of tetherball, a ball is hung from a vertical pole via a 0.75m rope. The rope is allowed to pivot freely from the top of the pole so the ball can swing around the pole. If the angle of the rope is 30° with respect to the pole, how much time does it take the ball to make one complete revolution around the pole?

A light rod is 88 cm long. Its top end is pivoted on a low-friction horizontal axle. The rod hangs straight down at rest with a small massive ball attached to its bottom end. You strike the ball, suddenly giving it a horizontal velocity so that it swing around in full circle. What minimum speed (m/s) at the bottom is required to make the ball go over the top of the circle? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
The world's tallest Ferris wheel is the High Roller in Las Vegas, NV. It has a radius of about 79 m If the ride time is 8 minutes (480 s), then how many revolutions does the wheel make and how many radians has it rotated?
A Ferris wheel has a radius of 30 m and its centre is 32 m above the ground. It rotates once every 48 s. Ethan gets on the Feris wheel at the lowest point and then the wheel starts to rotate. The amount of time it takes Ethan to reach 38 m above the ground for the first time, to the nearest tenth of a second, is S. Your answer
A plane with a wingspan of d = 16 m loses control in flight and begins to spiral in a circle around the cockpit while in a vertical dive. It completes one rotation every t = 3.1 s.
The blades in a blender rotate at a rate of 6300 rpm. When the motor is turned off during operation, the blades slow to rest in 3.4 s. What is the angular acceleration as the blades slow down?
A light, rigid rod is 68.5 cm long. Its top end is pivoted on a frictionless horizontal axle. The rod hangs straight down at rest with a small, massive ball attached to its bottom end. You strike the ball, suddenly giving it a horizontal velocity so that it swings around in a full circle. What minimum speed at the bottom is required to make the ball go over the top of the circle?

A turntable has a diameter of 40.0 cm. It rotates at a rate of 40 revolutions per second (rps) thanks to the action of a motor. It slows its speed evenly to 15 rps in 10 seconds. Calculate: d) The magnitude of the total acceleration vector.e) The angle, in radians, for the turns in that time interval.f) The arc length traveled by a point on the saucer in that time interval.
On the International Space Station an object with mass m = 440 g is attached to a massless string of length L = 0.61 m. The string can handle a tension of T = 5.8 N before breaking. The object undergoes uniform circular motion, being spun around by the string horizontally.What is the maximum speed v the mass can have before the string breaks? Give your answer in units of m/s.
In 2010, the Sikorsky's X2 helicopter became the world's fastest helicopter, flying at 249 miles per hour. When flying over 230 mph, the rotor speed is reduced from 446 to 360 RPM to keep tip speed below Mach 0.9. If each one of the six rotor blades is about 4.02 m long, how fast is the blade tip actually moving when the rotational speed is 360 RPM?
In a classic carnival ride, patrons stand against the wall in a cylindrically shaped room. Once the room gets spinning fast enough, the floor drops from the bottom of the room! Friction between the walls of the room and the people on the ride make them the "stick" to the wall so they do not slide down. In one ride, the radius of the cylindrical room is R = 7.6 m and the room spins with a frequency of 19.7 revolutions per minute. 1) What is the speed of a person "stuck" to the wall? m/s Submit 2) What is the normal force of the wall on a rider of m = 47 kg? N Submit 3) What is the minimum coefficient of friction needed between the wall and the person? Submit Submit 5) Which of the following changes would decrease the coefficient of friction needed for this ride? 4) If a new person with mass 94 kg rides the ride, what minimum coefficient of friction between the wall and the person would be needed? increasing the rider's mass increasing the radius of the ride increasing the speed of the…
A spinning wheel is set into rotational motion with the beginning of the angular section labeled “1” at the marker at the top of the wheel. The wheel then decelerates and eventually comes to a halt on one of the numbered sections. The wheel in the drawing is divided in to twelve sections with 30 degrees in each section. Determine the numbered section on which the wheel comes to a halt when the deceleration of the wheel has a magnitude of 0.3 rev/s2 and initial angular speed is 7 rev/s.(Attached is a photo of a wheel) The marker stops at REGION:
