Solution:

A ball of mass M undergoes vertical circular motion (involving the effect of gravity). What velocity should be given to the ball at the lowest point of the motion so that it reaches the highest point of the motion? Given: Radius of the circular path is R, and acceleration due to gravity is g.

Solution:

A wheel of centroidal radius of gyration k is rolling on a horizontal surface with constant velocity. It comes across an obstruction of height h. Because of its rolling speed (v), it just overcomes the obstruction. To determine v, one should use the principle of conservation of

Solution:

Consider the following statements for two mass systems, m1 and m2:

  1. The effective mass, meff, is the sum of the two masses: meff = m1 + m2
  2. The effective mass, meff, is the absolute difference between the two masses: meff = |m1 - m2|
  3. The effective mass, meff, is the product of the two masses divided by their sum: meff = (m1 × m2) / (m1 + m2)
  4. None of the above three
