A solid sphere of mass \( 1.5 \, \text{kg} \) and radius \( 15 \, \text{cm} \) rolls without slipping down a \( 35^\circ\) incline that is \( 7 \, \text{m} \) long. Assume it started from rest. The moment of inertia of a sphere is \( I= \frac{2}{5}MR^2 \).
A rock is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius \(R\) with a constant period \(T\). If the radius of the circle is reduced to \(R/3\), while the period remains \(T\), what happens to the centripetal acceleration (\(a_c\)) of the rock?
A textbook is launched up with a speed of 20 m/s, at an angle of 36°, from a 12 m high roof.
Nancy is using a turkey baster (a kitchen tool with a rubber bulb on one end and a tube on the other) to collect juices from a roasting turkey. When she squeezes and then releases the rubber bulb, it creates suction with a pressure of \( 99{,}800 \) \( \text{Pa} \). This suction causes the turkey juice to rise \( 9 \) \( \text{cm} \) up the tube. Based on this information, what is the density of the turkey juice?
The motions of a car and a truck along a straight road are represented by the velocity–time graphs in the figure. The two vehicles are initially alongside each other at time \(t = 0\). At time \(T\), what is true of the distances traveled by the vehicles since time \(t = 0\)?
The speed of a \(40 \, \text{N}\) hockey puck, sliding across a level ice surface, decreases at the rate of \(0.61 \, \text{m/s}^2\). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and ice is
A wheel of radius \( R \) and negligible mass is mounted on a horizontal frictionless axle so that the wheel is in a vertical plane. Three small objects having masses \( m \), \( M \), and \( 2M \), respectively, are mounted on the rim of the wheel, as shown above. If the system is in static equilibrium, what is the value of \( m \) in terms of \( M \)?
On Saturday, Ashley rode her bicycle to visit Maria. Maria’s house is directly east of Ashley’s. The graph shows how far Ashley was from her house after each minute of her trip. (Hint – Use the standard units of velocity \(\text{m/s}\) for all parts)
The figure shows a container filled with water to a depth \( d \). The container has a hole a distance \( y \) above its bottom, allowing water to exit with an initially horizontal velocity. Which of the following correctly predicts and explains how the speed of the water as it exits the hole would change if the distance \( y \) above the bottom of the container increased?
A cardinal (Richmondena cardinalis) of mass \( 3.80 \times 10^{-2} \) \( \text{kg} \) and a baseball of mass \( 0.150 \) \( \text{kg} \) have the same kinetic energy. What is the ratio of the cardinal’s magnitude \( p_c \) of momentum to the magnitude \( p_b \) of the baseball’s momentum?
A system consists of two small disks, of masses \( m \) and \( 2m \), attached to a rod of negligible mass of length \( 3l \) as shown above. The rod is free to turn about a vertical axis through point \( P \). The two disks rest on a rough horizontal surface; the coefficient of friction between the disks and the surface is \( \mu \). At time \( t = 0 \), the rod has an initial counterclockwise angular velocity \( \omega_0 \) about \( P \). The system is gradually brought to rest by friction. Develop expressions for the following quantities in terms of \( \mu \), \( m \), \( l \), \( g \), and \( \omega_0 \).

Seo-Jun throws a ball to her friend Zuri. The ball leaves Seo-Jun’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground with an initial speed \( \vec{v}_{s,0} = 12 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( \theta = 25^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal. Zuri catches the ball at a height of \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
After catching the ball, Zuri throws it back to Seo-Jun. The ball leaves Zuri’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground. The ball is moving with a speed of \( 15 \) \( \text{m/s} \) when it reaches a maximum height of \( 5.8 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
At what height \( h’ \) above the ground will the ball be when the return throw reaches Seo-Jun?
A block is attached to a horizontal spring and is initially at rest at the equilibrium position \( x = 0 \), as shown in Figure \( 1 \). The block is then moved to position \( x = -A \), as shown in Figure \( 2 \), and released from rest, undergoing simple harmonic motion. At the instant the block reaches position \( x = +A \), another identical block is dropped onto and sticks to the block, as shown in Figure \( 3 \). The two–block–spring system then continues to undergo simple harmonic motion. Which of the following correctly compares the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},2} \) of the two–block–spring system after the collision to the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},1} \) of the one–block–spring system before the collision?

Assume each piston has a cylindrical shape, i.e., a circular cross-sectional area. Note: The two pistons are at the same height. Also, the diameter of the wider piston is given in the figure to be \( 2.0 \) \( \text{m} \).
