The 60-kg unbalanced wheel rolls without slipping on the horizontal plane. The radius of gyration of the wheel about its mass center G is 240 mm. Calculate the kinetic energy of the wh

Foreshadowing. the prologue states that this is the story of "star-crossed lovers." there are four strong foreshadowings of evil in act 1. identify at least two foreshadowings and explain their purpose.

Under the action of a constant force an object accelerates at 7.8 m/s2. what will the acceleration be if (a) the force is halved? (b) the object's mass is halved? (c) the force and the object's mass are both halved? (d) the force is halved and the object's mass is doubled?

Asolid cylinder and a cylindrical shell have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. the cylindrical shell has light-weight spokes connecting the shell to the axle. a rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to blocks of equal masses that are held the same height above the ground. both blocks are released simultaneously. the ropes do not slip. which block hits the ground first? or is it a tie?
