6 Mass in coÿg
j/ A particle of mass m slides without friction on the inside of a cone.
The axis of the cone is vertical, and gravity is directed downward.
The apex half-angle of the cone is 0, as shown.
The path of the particle happens to be a circle in a horizontal
plane. The speed of the particle is v0. Draw a force diagram and
find the radius of the circular path in terms of v0, g, and 0.

.2.8 Two masses and two pulleys*
Masses M1 and 3/ÿ2 are connected to a system of strings and pul-
leys as shown. The strings are massless and inextensible, and the
pulIeys are massless and fricfionless. Find the acceleration of Mz.

2.12 Painter on scaj]'oM*
A painter of mass M stands on a scaffold of mass m and pulls
himseK up by two ropes which hang over pulleys, as shown.
He pulls each rope with force F and accelerates upward with
a uniform acceleration a. Find a--neglecting the fact that no one
could do this for long.
