Particle in hemispherical bowl

4 A particle \(P\) of mass \(m\) is moving in a horizontal circle with angular speed \(\omega\) on the smooth inner surface of a hemispherical shell of radius \(r\). The angle between the vertical and the normal reaction of the surface on \(P\) is \(\theta\).

1. Show that \(\cos \theta = \frac { \mathrm { g } } { \omega ^ { 2 } \mathrm { r } }\).
   The plane of the circular motion is at a height \(x\) above the lowest point of the shell. When the angular speed is doubled, the plane of the motion is at a height \(4 x\) above the lowest point of the shell.
2. Find \(x\) in terms of \(r\).

The centre of the circular rim is \(O\) and the point \(A\) on the surface of the bowl is vertically below \(O\). A particle \(P\) moves in a horizontal circle, with centre \(C\), on the smooth inner surface of the bowl. The particle moves with constant angular speed \(\sqrt { \frac { g } { 4 r } }\). The point \(C\) lies on \(O A\), as shown in Figure 1. Find, in terms of \(r\), the distance \(O C\)

6. \begin{figure}[h] \end{figure} Figure 3 represents the path of a skier of mass 70 kg moving on a ski-slope \(A B C D\). The path lies in a vertical plane. From \(A\) to \(B\), the path is modelled as a straight line inclined at \(60 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. From \(B\) to \(D\), the path is modelled as an arc of a vertical circle of radius 50 m . The lowest point of the \(\operatorname { arc } B D\) is \(C\). At \(B\), the skier is moving downwards with speed \(20 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). At \(D\), the path is inclined at \(30 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal and the skier is moving upwards. By modelling the slope as smooth and the skier as a particle, find

1. the speed of the skier at \(C\),
2. the normal reaction of the slope on the skier at \(C\),
3. the speed of the skier at \(D\),
4. the change in the normal reaction of the slope on the skier as she passes \(B\). The model is refined to allow for the influence of friction on the motion of the skier.
5. State briefly, with a reason, how the answer to part (b) would be affected by using such a model. (No further calculations are expected.)

The first arc \(A B\) is a quarter of a circle of radius \(\frac { 1 } { 8 } a\) and centre \(O\). The second arc \(B C\) is a quarter of a circle of radius \(a\) and centre \(Q\). The two arcs are smoothly joined at \(B\). The point \(Q\) is vertically below \(O\) and the two arcs are in the same vertical plane. The particle \(P\) is projected vertically downwards from \(A\) with speed \(u\). When \(P\) is on the \(\operatorname { arc } B C\), angle \(B Q P\) is \(\theta\) (see diagram). Given that \(P\) loses contact with the surface when \(\cos \theta = \frac { 5 } { 6 }\), find \(u\) in terms of \(a\) and \(g\).

2 A fixed hollow sphere with centre O has an inside radius of 2.7 m . A particle P of mass 0.4 kg moves on the smooth inside surface of the sphere. At first, P is moving in a horizontal circle with constant speed, and OP makes a constant angle of \(60 ^ { \circ }\) with the vertical (see Fig. 2.1). \begin{figure}[h] \end{figure}

2. Find the speed of P . The particle P is now placed at the lowest point of the sphere and is given an initial horizontal speed of \(9 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). It then moves in part of a vertical circle. When OP makes an angle \(\theta\) with the upward vertical and P is still in contact with the sphere, the speed of P is \(v \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) and the normal reaction acting on P is \(R \mathrm {~N}\) (see Fig. 2.2). \begin{figure}[h]

\includegraphics{figure_10} A hollow sphere has centre O and internal radius \(r\). A bowl is formed by removing part of the sphere. The bowl is fixed to a horizontal floor, with its circular rim horizontal and the centre of the rim vertically above O. The point A lies on the rim of the bowl such that AO makes an angle of \(30°\) with the horizontal (see diagram). A particle P of mass \(m\) is projected from A, with speed \(u\), where \(u > \sqrt{\frac{gr}{2}}\), in a direction perpendicular to AO and moves on the smooth inner surface of the bowl. The motion of P takes place in the vertical plane containing O and A. The particle P passes through a point B on the inner surface, where OB makes an acute angle \(\theta\) with the vertical.

1. Determine, in terms of \(m\), \(g\), \(u\), \(r\) and \(\theta\), the magnitude of the force exerted on P by the bowl when P is at B. [7]

The difference between the magnitudes of the force exerted on P by the bowl when P is at points A and B is \(4mg\).
