Given the graph above of angular acceleration versus time for a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis, which segment of the graph represents the time interval during which the largest magnitude of net torque is exerted on the rigid body?

Segment A

Four round objects of equal mass and radius roll without slipping along a horizontal surface that then bends upward and backward into an arc of a half circle. The objects all have the same linear speed initially. The objects are a hollow sphere, a solid cylinder, a solid sphere, and a hollow sphere. The objects go up the arc and exit the arc going in the opposite direction they entered without falling off the arc. Now, several trials are run for each object. For each trial, the initial speed of the object is reduced until the object does not make it through the full arc. The speed needed for each object to just make it through the arc is recorded. Which of the following correctly lists the objects in order from fastest to slowest speed needed to make it through the arc?

Solid sphere, solid cylinder, hollow sphere, hollow cylinder

In an experiment, students roll several hoops down the same incline plane. Each hoop has the same mass but a different radius. Each hoop rolls down the incline without slipping. Which of the following graphs best shows the linear speed v of the hoops at the bottom of the incline as a function of the radius r of the hoop?

Straight horizontal line

Two blocks of masses m1 and m2 are connected by a massless string that passess over a wheel of mass m, as shown above. The string does not slip on the wheel and exerts forces T1 and T2 on the blocks. When the wheel is released from rest in the position shown, it undergoes an angular acceleration and rotates clockwise. Which of the following statements about T1 and T2 is correct?

T2 is greater than T1 because an unbalanced clockwise torque is needed to accelerate the wheel clockwise.

A figure skater goes into a spin with arms fully extended. Which of the following describes the changes in the rotational kinetic energy and angular momentum of the skater as the skater's arms are brought toward the body?

The rotational kinetic energy increases and the angular momentum remains the same.

A sphere of mass M, radius r, and rotational inertia I is released from rest at the top of an inclined plane of height h as shown above. If the plane has friction so that the sphere rolls without slipping, what is the speed vcm of the center of mass at the bottom of the incline?

[(2Mghr^2)/(I +Mr^2)]^1/2

Planet X has a mass M, radius R, and no atmosphere. An object of mass m is located a distance 2R above the surface of planet X, as shown in the figure above. The object is released from rest and falls to the surface of the planet. What is the speed of the object just before it reaches the surface of planet X ?

[(4GM)/(3R)]^1/2

The elliptical orbit of a comet is shown above. Positions 1 and 2 are, respectively, the farthest and nearest positions to the Sun, and at position 1 the distance from the comet to the Sun is 10 times that at position 2. At position 2, the comet's kinetic energy is

at its maximum value for the orbit.

A person sits on a freely spinning lab stool that has no friction in its axle. When this person extends her arms,

her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed decreases.

What is a proper unit for rotational inertia?

kgm^2

A satellite S is in an elliptical orbit around a planet P, as shown above, with r1 and r2 being its closest and farthest distances, respectively, from the center of the planet. If the satellite has a speed v1 at its closest distance, what is its speed at its farthest distance?

r1v1/r2

Two identical starts, a fixed distance D apart, revolve in a circle about their mutual center of mass, as shown. Each star has a mass M and speed v. G is the universal gravitational constant. Which of the following is a correct relationship among these quantities?

v2 = GM/2D

A simple pendulum consists of a l.0 kilogram brass bob on a string about 1.0 meter long. It has a period of 2.0 seconds. The pendulum would have a period of 1.0 second if the

string were replaced by one about 0.25 meter long.

Two forces produce equal torques on a door about the door hinge. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at the doorknob. Both forces are applied perpendicular to the door. Which force has a greater magnitude?

the first force (at the midpoint)

A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, it is true to say that

the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.

A small uniform disk and a small uniform sphere are released simultaneously at the top of a high inclined plane, and they roll down without slipping. Which one will reach the bottom first?

the sphere

A solid cylinder of mass m and radius R has a string wound around it. A person holding the string pulls it vertically upward, as shown, such that the cylinder is suspended in midair for a brief time interval of Δt and its center of mass does not move. The tension in the string is T, and the rotational inertia of the cylinder about its axis is 0.5mR2. The net force on the cylinder during the time interval Δt is

zero
