The large blade of a helicopter is rotating in a horizontal circle.The length of the blade is 6.5 m, measured from its tip to thecenter of the circle. Find the ratio of the centripetalacceleration a1 at the end of the blade to the centripetalacceleration a2 which exists at a point located 4.0 m from thecenter of the circle.
a1/a2=

A helicopter has blades of length 3.00 m, extending out from a central hub and rotating at 2.00 rev/s. If the vertical component of the Earth’s magnetic field is         

50.0 . what is the emf induced between the blade tip and the center hub?

A helicopter has blades of length 1.1 m, rotating at 3.5 rev/sabout a central hub.
If the vertical component of Earth’s magnetic field is 5.5×10^-5 T,what emf is induced between the blade tip and the centralhub?
Answer in units of mV.

1-Our balance is maintained, at least in part, by the endolymph fluid in the inner ear. Spinning displaces this fluid, causing dizziness. Suppose a dancer (or skater) is spinning at a very fast 2.6 revolutions per second about a vertical axis through the center of his head. Although the distance varies from person to person, the inner ear is approximately 7.0 cm from the axis of spin.

Part A What is the radial acceleration (in m/s2 ) of the endolymph fluid?

Part B.What is the radial acceleration (in g's) of the endolymph fluid?

 

2-A model of a helicopter rotor has four blades, each of length 4.00m from the central shaft to the blade tip. The model is rotated in a wind tunnel at a rotational speed of 540rev/min.

A-What is the linear speed of the blade tip?

B-What is the radial acceleration of the blade tip expressed as a multiple of the acceleration of gravity, g?
