Chapter 7, Problem 64AP
Casting of molten metal is important in many industrial processes. Centrifugal casting is used for manufacturing pipes, bearings, and many other structures. A cylindrical enclosure is rotated rapidly and steadily about a horizontal axis, as in Figure P7.62. Molten metal is poured into the rotating cylinder and then cooled, forming the finished product. Turning the cylinder at a high rotation rate forces the solidifying metal strongly to the outside. Any bubbles are displaced toward the axis so that unwanted voids will not be present in the casting. Suppose a copper sleeve of inner radius 2.10 cm and outer radius 2.20 cm is to be cast. To eliminate bubbles and give high structural integrity, the centripetal acceleration of each bit of metal should be 100g. What rate of rotation is required? State the answer in revolutions per minute.

The figure shows a 100 g puck revolving in a 20 cm radius circle on a frictionless table. The string passes through a hole in the center of the table and is tied to two 200 g weights. The lower weight is a light bag filled with sand. Suppose a pin pokes a hole in the bag and the sand slowly leaks out while the puck is revolving. What will be the puck's speed after all of the sand is gone?
The spin cycle of a clothes washer extracts the water in clothing by greatly increasing the water’s apparent weight so that it is efficiently squeezed through the clothes and out the holes in the drum. In a top loader’s spin cycle, the 45-cm-diameter drum spins at 1200 rpm around a vertical axis. What is the apparent weight of a 1.0 g drop of water?

- A variation of the amusement park ride discussed in Problem 11 is the Gravitron, which consists of a rotating cylinder, where riders stand with their backs against the inner surface of the cylinder (see image). As the cylinder rotates faster, riders get stuck to the wall. The effect is great enough, that in some rides, the floor even drops away. Let’s model the Gravitron as a rotating cylinder with vertical walls. The radius of the cylinder is 5.5 m. At one point during the ride, the speed of the Gravitron is 24 rpm, at which point a rider slides down the wall at constant speed.

Upon rotation, the level of water will not remain flat; it will be curved such that it has an increasingly higher level as one moves away from the centre towards the walls of the cylinder. Consider a coordinate system that is fixed at the cylinder and rotates with at the same angular velocity. Take the z' axis to be aligned with the axis of the cylinder such that the angular velocity points along the +z' direction. The x'y plane is, hence, parallel to the cylinder base. Place your coordinate system such that the lowest point on the water surface is at the origin. Solve the following questions: (a) Consider a point mass m that is located at the surface of the water at the coordinates (x', 0, z').
