You are making a circular turn in your car on a horizontal road when you hit a big patch of ice, causing the force of friction between the tires and the road to become zero. While the car is on the ice, it

A) moves along a straight-line path in its original direction.

A) moves along a straight-line path away from the center of the circle.

A) moves along a straight-line path toward the center of the circle.

A) continues to follow a circular path, but with a radius larger than the original radius.

A system consists of a disk rotating on a frictionless axle and a piece of clay moving toward it, as shown in the figure above. The outside edge of the disk is moving at a linear speed v, and the clay is moving at speed v/2. The clay sticks to the outside edge of the disk. How does the angular momentum of the system after the clay sticks compare to the angular momentum of the system before the clay sticks, and what is an explanation for the comparison?

It is the same because there is no external torque acting on the system

It is greater because the rotating mass increases, which increases the rotational inertia.

It is less because the speed of the disk decreases when the clay sticks to it.

It is less because the angular momentum if the clay opposes that of the disk.

A long rod is suspended by a frictionless bearing near its top. A lump of clay is projected from the right, collides with the block and sticks to it. Which one of the following statements is correct about the clay and rod system for this collision?

The linear momentum and the angular momentum remain constant but the mechanical energy changes.

The mechanical energy, linear momentum and angular momentum remain constant.

Only the angular momentum remains constant.

None of the quantities of mechanical energy, linear momentum, or angular momentum remain constant.

Two uniform solid balls, one of radius R and mass M, the other of radius 2R and mass 8M, roll down a high incline. They start together from rest at the top of the incline. Which one will reach the bottom of the incline first?

The small sphere arrives first.

The large sphere arrives first.

Both reach the bottom at the same time.

A person sits on a freely spinning lab stool that has no friction in its axle. When this person extends her arms,

her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed decreases.

her moment of inertia decreases and her angular speed increases.

her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed increases.

her moment of inertia increases and her angular speed remains the same.
