A woman places her briefcase on the backseat of her car. As she drives to work, the car negotiates an unbanked curve in the road

that can be regarded as an arc of a circle of radius 54.5 m. While on the curve, the speed of the car is 12.4 m/s at the instant the briefcase starts to slide across the backseat toward the side of the car. What force causes the centripetal acceleration of the briefcase when it is stationary relative to the car? Under what condition does the briefcase begin to move relative to the car?

Answer:

The force that cause the centripetal acceleration is the static friction, and the briefcase begin to move if the force of centripetal acceleration exceeds the force due to the static friction

Explanation:

Given data:

r = radius = 54.5 m

v = speed of the car = 12.4 m/s

The force due to the static friction that is exerted on the curve in the road is what causes the centripetal acceleration. If the force due to centripetal acceleration is greater than the force of static friction, then the briefcase will begin to roll.

- \frac{mR^2 }{I  } \ vAnswer:

a)      w = - \frac{m r }{I} v  ,  b)   W = - ½ m_woman R² (1 + m_woman R / I²) v²

Explanation:

a) To solve this exercise, let's use the conservation of angular momentum.

We define a system formed by the table and the woman, therefore the torques are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Before starting to move the woman

         L₀ = 0

final instant. After starting to move

         L_f = I w + m v r

the moment is preserved

        L₀ = L_f

         0 = Iw + m v r

         w = - \frac{m r }{I} v                    (1)

the direction of the angular velocity is opposite to the direction of the linear velocity, that is, counterclockwise

b) for this part we use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

        W = ΔK

in this case the initial speed is zero and the final speed of the table, using the relationship between linear and angular variables

         v = w r

we substitute

          W = 0 - ½ I_total w²

          I_total = I + m_{woman} R²

          W = - ½ (I + m_woman R²)  ( \frac{m_{woman} R}{I} \ v) ²

          W = - ½ (m_woman² R² + m_woman³ R³ / I²) v²

          W = - ½ m_woman R² (1 + m_woman R / I²) v²
