Does anyone want a wonderful dog?

Posted on August 4, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

He is a really great dog. He is current on his shots, neutered and 1 1/2 years old. He is a black lab x. He is very cute, friendly and good with people and kids. He would never hurt a fly. We just found out that my baby is allergic to him so we can’t have him in the house anymore. He loves to be outside, but where we live he has to be tied up. He weights 130 lbs and he needs his room to run. He has been a great dog for us and we are really sad to see him go, but I can’t watch him everyday on that chain, only getting to come off when we walk him. Now that it is getting colder outside I really want to find him a go home. He has a nice dog house that my husband buildt for him and we will give him free to a good home. Please email me if you are interested in him his name is Onyx. Thank you. My email is kaiser2befreed@yahoo.com

some circular motion problems?

Posted on March 24, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

1. An athlete whirls in a 7.00 kg hammer tied to the end of a 1.3 m chain in a horizontal circle. The hammer makes one revolution in 1.0 s.
(a) What is the centripetal acceleration of the hammer?
(b) What is the tension in the chain?

2. A coin is placed on a vinyl stereo record making 32 1/3 revolutions per minute.
(a) In what direction is the acceleration of the coin?
(b) Find the magnitude of the acceleration when the coin is placed 5.0, 10, and 17 cm from the center of the record.
(c) What force accelerates the coin?
(d) In which of the three radii listed in (b) would the coin be most likely to fly off? Why?

3. The carnival ride shown in Figure 7-18 has a 2.5 m radius and rotates once each 0.85 s.
(a) Find the speed of a rider.
(b) Find the centripetal acceleration of a rider.
(c) What produces this acceleration?
(e) What coefficient of static friction is needed to keep the riders from slipping?

What aircraft did you learn to fly in?

I learned to fly in a 1946 Talyorcraft. At the time I hated that plane. It had separate brake pedals from the rudder pedals, but that didn’t matter because the brakes didn’t work. When ever I flew it solo I had to wrap a tie down chain to the tail wheel when I propped it (I know dangerous as hell). My flight instructor weighed about 75 lbs more than me, so it was a whole different flight when he was in or out of the plane. No radio, just a handheld, and of the instruments it had I think the airspeed and altimeter were the only ones that worked correctly.

I hated that plane at the time, now I wish I had one
