    This document provides instructions for Problem Set 12 in physics. It lists the chapter number, announcements about including free-body diagrams and an upcoming midterm, and due date. It then provides 3 physics problems to solve - the first involves a "flying pig" mass attached to strings, the second involves a gravatron ride, and the third finds the minimum speed for a car to make a turn based on radius, bank angle, and coefficient of static friction. It finishes by listing required reading and a lecture ticket question.

    Problem Set 12

    E, P :Exercises and Problems


    Q :Conceptual Questions Number given in book

    Chapter _#.##

    Announcements :

    For each problem on this problem set make sure that you have drawn a free-body
    diagram for each of the objects involved.

    The first midterm will be Friday, October 6th.

    Due: We 9/27/2017
    Problems:
    12.1) P 8.45 (flying pig or mass with two strings)

    12.2) P 8.49 (gravitron)

    12.3) Consider a car driving around a curve of radius r banked at an angle . The
    coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is s . Find an expression for
    the minimum speed at which the car may make the turn without slipping.
    [Your answer should be in terms of r, , s and g. In addition to the maximum speed
    example done in class, Examples 8.3 and 8.4 in Knight deal with turning corners. Does
    your result agree with example 8.4 in the limit of zero friction?]

    Reading: Read Knight chapter 9

    Lecture Ticket: Question 9.6
