Question
A block hangs from a string wrapped on a disc of radius 20cm free to rotate about its axis which is fixed in a horizontal position. If the angular speed of the disc is 10rad/s at some instant, with what speed is the block going down at that instant?
✓

Answer

The Block is moving the rim of the pulley The pulley is moving at a $\omega=10\text{rad/s}$ Therefore the radius of the pulley = 20cm Therefore linear velocity on the rim = tangential velocity $=\text{r}_{\omega}=20\times20=200\text{cm/s}=2\text{m/s}.$

A calorie is a unit of heat (energy in transit) and it equals about $4.2 J$ where $1J = 1kg m^2 s^{–2}$. Suppose we employ a system of units in which the unit of mass equals $\alpha\text{ kg},$ the unit of length equals $\beta\text{ m},$ the unit of time is $\gamma\text{ s}.$ Show that a calorie has a magnitude $4.2\ \alpha^{-1}\ \beta^{-2}\ \gamma^2$ in terms of the new units.

Slowing down of neutrons: In a nuclear reactor a neutron of high speed (typically $10^7 m s ^{-1}$ ) must be slowed to $10^3 m s ^{-1}$ so that it can have a high probability of interacting with isotope ${ }_{92}^{235} U$ and causing it to fission. Show that a neutron can lose most of its kinetic energy in an elastic collision with a light nuclei like deuterium or carbon which has a mass of only a few times the neutron mass. The material making up the light nuclei, usually heavy water $\left( D _2 O \right)$ or graphite, is called a moderator.
