Question 12: During its fall, the mechanical energy of the yoyo is
conserved. Why?
ABecause the net torque exerted on the yoyo is zero.
BBecause the net force exerted on the yoyo is zero.
CBecause all the forces exerted on the yoyo are
conservative.
DBecause, although at least one force applied to the
yoyo is not conservative, it does no work.
EBecause none of the forces exerted on the yoyo does
any work.

v=R2.
D-
v=(R2+d).
E-
v=(R1+R2).
Question 15: When the yoyo is halfway through its fall, at z=L/2,
the thickness of the layer of wound-up string is d = 0.030 m, but
at z=0 it has decreased to d = 0.000 m. Making use of this
information, calculate the downward speed of the yoyo at z=L/2
and z=0 (these speeds will be noted v1 and v2, according to the
notation in Fig. 3).
