Atrap-jaw ant has mandibles that can snap shut with some force, as you might expect from its name. the formidable snap is good for more than capturing prey. when an ant snaps its jaws against the ground, the resulting force can launch the ant into the air. here are typical data: an ant rotates its mandible, of length 1.30 mm and mass 130 μg (which we can model as a uniform rod rotated about its end), at a high angular speed. as the tip strikes the ground, it undergoes an angular acceleration of 3.5×108rad/s2. if we assume that the tip of the mandible hits perpendicular to the ground, what is the force on the tip?

Consider two less-than-desirable options. in the first you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into an identical car also going 30 mph. in the second option you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into a stationary brick wall. in neither case does your car bounce off the thing it hits, and the collision time is the same in both cases. which of these two situations would result in the greatest impact force?

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. these cyclotrons typically accelerate h- (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5 mev to 20 mev. this ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible—about 1 2000 of the proton’s mass. a typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9 t. (a) what is the speed of a 5.0-mev h-? (b) if the h- has energy 5.0 mev and b = 1.9 t, what is the radius of this ion’s circular orbit?
