Аннотация

The lateral deflection of a rotating cylindrical shell sliding on one of its ends is considered and both theoretical and experimental results are presented. The coefficient of kinetic friction between a curling rock and an ice surface is then derived and compared with experiment. Current models of the motion of a curling rock are discussed and an alternate hypothesis is presented. (C) 2001 American Association of Physics Teachers.
