By considering the torques about the centers of the ball : By considering the torques about the centers of the ball joints in your shoulders, estimate the force your deltoid muscles (those muscles on top of the shoulder) should exert on your upper arm to keep your arm held out and extended at shoulder level.

A solid cylinder is rolling on a surface : A solid cylinder is rolling on a surface. What fraction of its total kinetic energy is in the form of rotational kinetic energy about the center of mass?

Density equals that of water and it absorbs the radiation : Laser light can be focused (at best) to a spot with radius r equal to its wavelength lambda. Suppose that a 1.0-W beam of green laser light (lambda=5*E-7m) is utilized to form such a spot and that a cylindrical particle of about that size (let the ra..

Disregard friction between the ice and the skates : A 65.0-kg person throws a 0.045 0-kgsnowball forward by a ground speed of 30.0 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 60.0 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward by a speed of 2.50 m/s, and the..

Which is sufficient to produce ionization : Electric breakdown (sparks) occur in air if the electric field reaches 3×106 N/C. At this field strength, free electrons present in the atmosphere are rapidly accelerated to such large speeds that upon impact with atoms they knock electrons off of th..

When the plane of the loop and the magnetic field vector : A circular loop of radius 0.10 m is rotating in a uniform magnetic field of 0.20 T. Find the magnetic flux during the loop when the plane of the loop and the magnetic field vector are at an angle of 30 degrees?
