A thin rod of length L = 2 m, mass m = 3 kg, and moment of inertia I = 4.0 kg⋅m2 is hinged at the top. It is held in place at an angle θ = 40∘ to the horizontal by a horizontal wire, as shown at right. The wire is attached to the rod a distance z = 1.6 m from the hinge. The hinge exerts a force on the top of the rod as well as a constant magnitude frictional torque τ = 5 N⋅m that (along with the wire) tries to keep the rod from rotating. The wire is cut at time t = 0.2) What is the tension in the wire for t < 0? (Yes, you include the frictional torque in your analysis). 3) What is the horizontal component of the force exerted by the hinge on the rod just after the wire is cut? 4) What is the angular speed of the rod when it is vertical for the first time?

A pendulum bob of mass m is attached to a light string of length L and is also attached to a spring of force constant k. With the pendulum in the position shown in Figure, the spring is at its unstressed length. If the bob is now pulled aside so that the string makes a small angle ϑ with the vertical and released, what is the speed of the bob as it passes through the equilibrium position? Hint: Recall the small-angle approximations: if ϑ is expressed in radians, and if ϑ < 1, then sin⁡ϑ ≈ tan⁡ϑ ≈ ϑ and cos⁡ϑ ≈ 1 − 1/ θ2.

A child of mass m is sitting at rest on a swing of length L. Their parent pulls them back making an angle of θ with the vertical as shown in the diagram. The parent uses a force that is perfectly horizontal. a) Find an expression for the force required to pull the child back as a function of the angle made by the swing. θ, m, L, and any fundamental can be in your answer. b) (Calculus version) i. Set up but do not solve an integral that could be used to calculate the work done on the child. ii. Now execute the integral showing that the work done will equal the resulting increase in potential energy. c) (Non calculus version) i. Find an expression for the height of the child above their lowest position as a function of θ and L. ii. Find an expression for the potential energy of the child in terms of m, θ, L, and any fundamental constants. d) The child is released and swings down to the lowest position. i. What is the tension in the cable the instant they are released? (Hint: their velocity the instant they are released is zero, but the net force is unbalanced. ) ii. What is the acceleration of the child the instant the parent releases them? iii. What is the speed of the child at the bottom of their swing? iv. What is the tension in the cable at the bottom of their swing?
