Question: A 500 g steel block rotates on a steel table while attached to a 2.0-m-long massless rod. Compressed air fed through the rod is ejected
A 500 g steel block rotates on a steel table while attached to a 2.0-m-long massless rod. Compressed air fed through the rod is ejected from a nozzle on the back of the block, exerting a thrust force of 3.5 N. The nozzle is 70° from the radial line, as shown in FIGURE P8.62. The block starts from rest.
a. What is the blocks angular velocity after 10 rev?
b. What is the tension in the rod after 10 rev?
