Question
A monkey climbs up a slippery pole for 3 seconds and subsequently slips for 3 seconds. Its velocity at time t is given by v(t) = 2t(3 - t); 0 < t < 3 and v(t) = -(t - 3)(6 - t) for 3 < t < 6s in m/s. It repeats this cycle till it reaches the height of 20m.
How many cycles (counting fractions) are required to reach the top?

Answer

Given velocity
$\text{v}(\text{t})=2\text{t}(3-\text{t})=6\text{t}-2\text{t}^2$
Distance covered in 0 to 3s = 9m
Distance covered in 3 to 6s
$=\int_3^6(18-9\text{t}+\text{t}^2)\text{dt}=\Big(18\text{t}-\frac{9\text{t}^2}{2}+\frac{\text{t}^3}{3}\Big)^6$
$=18\times6-\frac{9}{2}\times6^2+\frac{6^3}{3}-\Big(18\times3-\frac{9\times3^2}{2}+\frac{3^3}{3}\Big)$
$=108-9\times18+\frac{6^3}{3}-18\times3+\frac{9}{2}\times9-\frac{27}{3}$
$=-4.5\text{m}$
$\therefore$ Total distance travelled in one cycle
$=\text{s}_1+\text{s}_2=9-4.5=4.5\text{m}$
Number of cycles to be covered in total distance $=\frac{20}{4.5}\approx4.44\approx5$

A cylinder rotating at an angular speed of 50rev/s is brought in contact with an identical stationary cylinder. Because of the kinetic friction, torques act on the two cylinders, accelerating the stationary one and decelerating the moving one. If the common magnitude of the acceleration and deceleration be one revolution per second square, how long will it take before the two cylinders have equal angular speed?

A man walking briskly in rain with speed v must slant his umbrella forward making an angle $\theta$ with the vertical. A student derives the following relation between $\theta$ and v: $\tan \theta = \text{v}$ and checks that the relation has a correct limit: as $\text{v}\rightarrow 0,\ \theta \rightarrow0,$ as expected. (We are assuming there is no strong wind and that the rain falls vertically for a stationary man). Do you think this relation can be correct? If not, guess the correct relation.
