What is the rotational inertia \( I \) of a disk with a radius \( R = 4 \) \( \text{m} \) and a mass \( 2 \) \( \text{kg} \)? The same disk is rotated around an axis that is \( 0.5 \) \( \text{m} \) from the center of the disk. What is the new rotational inertia \( I \) of the disk? What would the rotational inertia be if the disk axis was \( 3.75 \) \( \text{m} \) from the center?
A theme park ride consists of a large vertical wheel of radius \( R \) that rotates counterclockwise on a horizontal axle through its center. The cars on the wheel move at a constant speed \( v \). Points \( A \) and \( D \) represent the position of a car at the highest and lowest point of the ride, respectively. While passing point \( A \), a student releases a small rock of mass \( m \), which falls to the ground without hitting anything. Which of the following best represents the kinetic energy of the rock when it is at the same height as point \( D \)?

A Venturi meter is a device used for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at a speed \( v_2 \) through a horizontal section of pipe with a cross-sectional area \( A_2 = 542 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \). The gas has a density of \( 1.35 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of \( A_1 = 215 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \) and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections \( P_2 – P_1 = 145 \) \( \text{Pa} \).
A pendulum bob of mass \(m\) on a cord of length \(L\) is pulled sideways until the cord makes an angle \(\theta\) with the vertical. The change in potential energy of the bob during the displacement is:
Wanda watches the fish in her fish tank and notices that the angelfish like to feed at the water’s surface, while the catfish feed \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \) below at the bottom of the tank. If the average density of the water in the tank is \( 1000\) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \), what is the absolute pressure on the catfish?
Two identical arrows, one with \( 2 \) times the speed of the other, are fired into a bale of hay. Assuming the hay exerts a constant “frictional” force on the arrows, the faster arrow will penetrate how much farther than the slower arrow?

The graph above represents the motion of an object traveling in a straight line as a function of time. What is the average speed of the object during the first four seconds?

A meterstick is supported at its center, which is aligned with the center of a cradle located at position \( x = 0 \) \( \text{m} \). Two identical objects of mass \( 1.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) are suspended from the meterstick. One object hangs \( 0.25 \) \( \text{m} \) to the left of the support point, and the other object hangs \( 0.50 \) \( \text{m} \) to the right of the support point. The system is released from rest and is free to rotate. Which of the following claims correctly describes the subsequent motion of the system containing the meterstick, cradle, and the two objects?
A ball is dropped off a high cliff, and \( 2 \) \( \text{s} \) later another ball is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How long will it take the second ball to overtake the first?
A force of \(17 \, \text{N}\) is applied to the end of a \(0.63 \, \text{m}\) long torque wrench at an angle \(45^\circ\) from a line joining the pivot point to the handle. What is the magnitude of the torque about the pivot point produced by this force?
A runner is moving at \( 4 \) \( \text{m/s} \). She is opposed by magic in the form of air resistance, which exerts a constant \( 20 \) \( \text{Newtons} \) force in the direction opposite her velocity. At what rate is she using energy to remain at constant velocity?
A student is watching their hockey puck slide up and down an incline. They give the puck a quick push along a frictionless table, and it slides up a \( 30^\circ \) rough incline (\( \mu_k = 0.4 \)) of distance \( d \), with an initial speed of \( 5 \) \( \text{m/s} \), and then it slides back down.
A golfer hits her ball in a high arcing shot. Air resistance is negligible. When the ball is at its highest point, which of the following is true?
An ice skater performs a pirouette (a fast spin) by pulling in his outstretched arms close to his body. What happens to his angular momentum about the axis of rotation?
A solid sphere, solid cylinder, and a hollow pipe all have equal masses and radii. If the three of them are released simultaneously at the top of an inclined plane and do not slip, which one will reach the bottom first? \( I_{sphere} = \frac{2}{5}MR^2\), \( I_{cylinder} = \frac{1}{2}MR^2\), \( I_{pipe} = MR^2\)
Suppose you place a ball in the middle of a wagon, and then accelerate the wagon forward. Describe the motion of the ball relative to the ground. Describe its motion relative to the wagon.
You throw a rock straight up with an initial velocity of \( 5.0 \, \text{m/s} \).

In the diagram shown, a \(20 \, \text{N}\) force is applied to block \(B\) (\(7 \, \text{kg}\)). Block \(A\) has a mass of \(3 \, \text{kg}\). Assume frictionless conditions.
In which of the following cases does a car have a negative velocity and a positive acceleration? A car that is traveling in the:

The figure shows a graph of the position \(x\) of two cars, \(C\) and \(D\), as a function of time \(t\). According to this graph, which statements about these cars must be true? (There could be more than one correct choice.)
A block sliding down an frictionless inclined plane is experiencing both gravitational and normal forces; which force’s magnitude changes when the angle of the incline is increased?
A small boat coasts at constant speed under a bridge. A heavy sack of sand is dropped from the bridge onto the boat. The speed of the boat
A projectile is launched at an angle of \( 30^{\circ} \) and hits a vertical wall \( 40 \) \( \text{m} \) away. After bouncing back horizontally, it lands \( 15 \) \( \text{m} \) behind the launch point. How high up on the wall did the projectile strike?
