Question 6

Which of the following objects is hardest to rotate about its center: a solid sphere, a solid cylinder, or a thin hoop, all with the same mass and radius?

Accepted Answer

The thin hoop

Question 7

A force $$F is $$applied at a distance $$r$$ from the axis of rotation, making an angle $$	heta$$ with the lever arm. What is the torque produced?

Accepted Answer

$$	au = rF\sin	heta$$

Question 8

Question 9

A solid disk and a thin hoop, both with mass $$M$$ and radius $$R$$, roll down an incline. Which reaches the bottom first and why?

Accepted Answer

The solid disk, because it has a smaller moment of inertia

Question 10

Which of the following statements about torque is correct?

Accepted Answer

Torque is positive if it causes counterclockwise rotation

Question 11

A force of $$20\ \mathrm{N} is $$applied at $$2\ \mathrm{m}$$ from the axis of rotation at an angle of $$60^\circ to $$the lever arm. What is the magnitude of the torque?

Accepted Answer

Dumbbell B

Question 13

A dumbbell-shaped object is composed of two equal masses $$m$$ connected by a rod of negligible mass and length $$R. If$$ $$I_1 is $$the moment of inertia about the center and $$I_2$$ about one mass, which is true?

Accepted Answer

$$I_2$$ \u003e $$I_1$$

Question 14
