Q. 91. A car moves uniformly along a horizontal sine curve y = a sin (x/α), where a and α are certain constants. The coefficient of friction between the wheels and the road is equal to k. At what velocity will the car ride without sliding?

Ans. Since the car follows a curve, so the maximum velocity at which it can ride without sliding at the point of minimum radius of curvature is the sought velocity and obviously in this case the static friction between the car and the road is limiting.

Hence from the equation Fn = mw

so        (1)

We know that, radius of curvature for a curve at any point (x, y) is given as,

Q. 94. A particle of mass m moves along the internal smooth surface of a vertical cylinder of radius R. Find the force with which the particle acts on the cylinder wall if at the initial moment of time its velocity equals v0  and forms an angle α with the horizontal.

Ans. The force with which the cylinder wall acts on the particle will provide centripetal force necessary for the motion of the particle> and since there is no acceleration acting in the horizontal direction, horizontal component of the velocity will remain constant througout the motion.

At the moment t = 0 a horizontal force is applied to it, which varies with time as F = at, where a is a constant vector. Find the distance traversed by the body during the first t seconds after the force action began.

Ans. Since, the applied force is proportional to the time and the frictional force also exists, the motion does not start just after applying the force. The body starts its motion when F equals the limiting friction.

Let the motion start after time t0 , then

the body remains at rest and for t > t0 obviously

Q. 104. A body of mass m is thrown straight up with velocity vo. Find the velocity v' with which the body comes down if the air drag equals kv2, where k is a constant and v is the velocity of the body.

Let us find the projection of the acceleration on the derection of the tangent to the trajectory and on the x-axis :

It is seen fromthis that wt = - wx, which means that the velocity v and its projection vx differ only by a constant value C which does not change with time, i.e.

(a) the velocity of the body relative to the sphere at the moment of break-off;
(b) the angle θ0 between the vertical and the radius vector drawn from the centre of the sphere to the break-off point; calculate θ0 for w0 = g.

Ans. In the problem, we require the velocity of the body, realtive to the sphere, which itself moves with an acceleration w0 in horizontal direction (say towards left). Hence it is advisible to solve the problem in the frame of sphere (non-inertial frame).
At an arbitary moment, when the body is at an angle θ with the vertical, we sketch the force diagram for the body and write the second law of motion in projection form

Q. 109. A particle moves in a plane under the action of a force which is always perpendicular to the particle's velocity and depends on a distance to a certain point on the plane as 1/rn, where n is a constant. At what value of n will the motion of the particle along the circle be steady?

Ans. This is not central force problem unless the path is a circle about the said point. Rather here Ft (tangential force) vanishes. Thus equation of motion becomes,

and,

We can consider the latter equation as the equilibrium under two forces. When the motion is perturbed, we write r = r0 + x and the net force acting on the particle is,

This is opposite to the displacement   is an outward directed centrifiigul force while  is thd inward directed external force).

Ans. There are two forces on the sleeve, the weight F1 and the centrifugal force F2. We resolve both forces into tangential and normal component then the net downward tangential force on the sleeve is,

is always positive for small values of 0 and hence the net tangential force near θ = 0  opposes any displacement away from it. θ = 0 is then stable.

However  is stable because the force tends to bring the sleeve near the equilibrium position

If ω2R = g, the two positions coincide and becomes a stable equilibrium point.

Find the Coriolis force acting on the sleeve (in the reference frame fixed to the rotating rod) at the moment when the sleeve is located at the distance r = 50 cm from the rotation axis.

Find the centrifugal force of inertia and the Coriolis force at the moment when the body breaks off the surface of the sphere in the reference frame fixed to the sphere.

Ans. The equation of motion in the rotating coordinate system is,

(b) in what direction and with what velocity the train should move for the resultant of the inertial forces acting on the train in the reference frame fixed to the Earth to be equal to zero.

Ans. (a) When the train is moving along a meridian only the Coriolis force has a lateral component and its magnitude (see the previous problem) is,

So,
