Q: A 20-kg ladder leans against a frictionless wall at an angle of $$\theta = 60^\circ. $$The coefficient of friction between the ladder and the floor is $$\mu. $$What is the minimum value of $$\mu$$ required to prevent the ladder from sliding?

$$\mu = \frac{1}{2 \tan \theta}$$

Question 1

A 1.0-kg solid disk of diameter 20.0 cm rotates at 200 rpm. A 1.0-kg circular loop of the same diameter is dropped onto the disk and accelerates due to friction until it rotates together with the disk. What is the final angular velocity of the combined system? (Assume no external torques.)

Accepted Answer

$$\omega_f = 7.0\ \mathrm{rad/s}$$

Question 2

Which equation correctly expresses the conservation of angular momentum for the disk and loop system described above?

Accepted Answer

$$I_1$$ \$$omega_1$$ = ($$I_1$$ + $$I_2$$) \$$omega_2$$

Question 3
