Ian has suggested another improvement for the game of hockey. Instead of the usual two-minute penalty, he would like to see an offender placed in a barrel at mid-ice and then spun in a circle by the other team. When the offender is silly with dizziness, he is put back into the game. Assume that a penalized player in a barrel approximates a uniform, 100-kg cylinder of radius 0.60 m, and that the ice is smooth (Figure). Ropes are wound around the barrel, so that pulling them causes rotation. If two players simultaneously pull the ropes with forces of 40 N and 60 N for 6 s, describe the motion of the barrel. Give its acceleration, velocity, and the position of its center of mass as functions oftime.
