The flying bird in the cage
� You have a bird in a cage that is resting on your upward turned palm. The cage is completely sealed to the outside (at least while we run the experiment!). The bird is initially sitting at rest on the perch. It decides it needs a bit of exercise and starts to fly.
Question: How does the weight of the cage plus bird vary when the bird is flying up, when the bird is flying sideways, when the bird is flying down?
� So, what is holding the airplane up in the sky?

Example with pulley
� A mass M is held in place by a force F. Find the tension in each segment of the massless ropes and the magnitude of F.� Assume the pulleys are
massless and frictionless.• The action of a massless
frictionless pulley is to change the direction of a tension.
• This is an example of static equilibrium.

� A mass M is held in place by a force F. Find the tension in each segment of the rope and the magnitude of F.� Assume the pulleys are massless
and frictionless.� Assume the rope is massless.
• The action of a massless frictionless pulley is to change the direction of a tension.
• Here F = T1 = T2 = T3 = T
• Equilibrium means Σ F = 0 for x, y & z• For example: y-dir ma = 0 = T2 + T3 – T5
and ma = 0 = T5 – Mg • So T5 = Mg = T2 + T3 = 2 F � T = Mg/2

Short word problems
� After breakfast, I weighed myself and the scale read 588 N. On my way out, I decide to take my bathroom scale in the elevator with me. What does the scale read as the elevator accelerates downwards with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2 ?
(500 N assuming g=10 m/s2)� A bear starts out and walks 1st with a velocity of
0.60 j m/s for 10 seconds and then walks at 0.40 i m/s for 20 seconds.
What was the bear’s avg. velocity on the walk? (0.33 m/s)What was the bear’s avg. speed on the walk? (0.47 m/s)

Conceptual ProblemThe pictures below depict cannonballs of identical mass which are
launched upwards and forward. The cannonballs are launched at various angles above the horizontal, and with various velocities, but all have the same vertical component of velocity. Do not consider the effect of air resistance.

Another question to ponder
How high will it go? � One day you are sitting somewhat pensively in an
airplane seat and notice, looking out the window, one of the jet engines running at full throttle. From the pitch of the engine you estimate that the turbine is rotating at 3000 rpm and, give or take, the turbine blade has a radius of 1.00 m. If the tip of the blade were to suddenly break off (it occasionally does happen with negative consequences) and fly directly upwards, then how high would it go (assuming no air resistance and ignoring the fact that it would have to penetrate the metal cowling of the engine.)
