Chapter 11, Problem 71P
A ride at a carnival has four spokes to which pods are attached that can hold two people. The spokes are each 15 m long and are attached to a central axis. Each spoke has mass 200.0 kg, and the pods each have mass 100.0 kg. If the ride spins at 0.2 rev/s with each pod containing two 50.0-kg children, what is the new spin rate if all the children jump off the ride?

Figure P9.75 shows a 100 g puck revolving at 100 rpm on a 20-cm-radius circle on a frictionless table. A string attached to the puck passes through a hole in the middle of the table. The end of the string below the table is then slowly pulled down until the puck is revolving in a 10-cm-radius circle. How many revolutions per minute does the puck make at this new radius?
A 2.0 kg , 20-cm-diameter turntable rotates at 130 rpm on frictionless bearings. Two 510 g blocks fall from above, hit the turntable simultaneously at opposite ends of a diameter, and stick.
What is the turntable's angular velocity, in rpm, just after this event?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
There is a CD-rom that's spinning a CD at 2,000 rpm. There is a bit of dirt, weighing 0.220 g, attached to the CD 3.50 cm from the centre. What must the force of friction between the CD and the dirt be so that the bit of dirt continues to rotate in a circle and doesn't fly off? Give your answers in units of mN (millinewton), to three significant figures
