3. Given the system shown. If the pulley has frictionless bearings, find a. the magnitude of the acceleration of the masses. [3.2 m/s2] b. the tensions T1 and T2. (Note: In this situation T1 and T2 are NOT equal since the pulley is NOT massless and its rotational inertia must be taken into account). [9.6 N, 27.2 N] 4. In the Atwood's machine at the right, one block has a mass of 0.50 kg and the other 0.46 kg. The pulley is mounted on horizontal frictionless bearings and has a radius of 0.05 meter.

A "Hula Hoop" of mass 0.2 kg and radius 0.5 meter rolls without slipping along a horizontal floor so that the speed of its center of mass is 2 m/s. How much work must be done on the Hula Hoop to bring it to rest? [-0.8 J] 7. A body of mass M and radius R is rolling horizontally without slipping with speed v. It then rolls up a hill to a maximum vertical height equal to 3v2/4g. Show that the body is a disk. [Hint: Find its moment of inertia] 8. A disk of mass M and radius R starts from rest at height h above the bottom of the path shown at the right. It rolls without slipping down the left side of the path.

Trudy Uelmen, infamous bowling champ, super Mom, and gal about town, practices for physically rigorous bowling tournaments by repeatedly tossing her Official "Trudy Uelmen" Signature Bowling Ball onto the roof of her house. On one toss it momentarily comes to rest on the roof in the position shown in the sketch at the right. a. What is its velocity as it rolls off the roof?
