Copy the problem below into a text editor or word processor.
• This form accepts only text so a text editor such as Notepad is fine.
• You might prefer for your own reasons to use a word processor (for example the formatting features might help you organize your answer and explanations), but note that formatting will be lost when you submit your work through the form.
• If you use a word processor avoid using special characters or symbols, which would require more of your time to create and will not be represented correctly by the form.
• As you will see within the first few assignments, there is an easily-learned keyboard-based shorthand that doesn't look quite as pretty as word-processor symbols, but which gets the job done much more efficiently.
You should enter your answers using the text editor or word processor. You will then copy-and-paste it into the box below, and submit.
The situation here is similar to that depicted above, though the distances of the rubber bands from the center are different. The die on which the strap rotates is not visible, but is attached to the tabletop; the blue push pin constrains the system to rotate about a vertical axis through the center of the die.
The problem:
The metal strap used in the Angular Velocity of a Strap experiment is constrained by a vertical push pin to rotate about a hole in a die. The die is glued in place to a massive tabletop. A rubber band is attached to a point 15 cm from the axis and stretched so that it exerts a force of 3 Newtons, directed perpendicular to the rod. If this force is unopposed it will accelerate the system rapidly. You want to attach a second rubber band 5 cm from the axis to prevent the system from rotating.
• How much force will that rubber band have to exert?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
0.45 m N / (.05 m) = 9 N

• Once both of these forces are in place and the system is stationary, what (if anything) will happen if the glue holding the die to the tabletop comes loose?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
It would go towards the side of the most net force.
