A block is attached to a horizontal spring. The block is held so the spring is stretched and the block is released from rest, undergoing simple harmonic motion with a frequency of \( 2 \) \( \text{Hz} \). How long after release will the block first reach a point where it is momentarily at rest?
Find the downward acceleration of an elevator, given that the ratio of a person’s stationary weight to their weight in the elevator is \(5:4\).

An object’s velocity \(v\) as a function of time \(t\) is given in the graph. Which of the following statements is true about the motion of the object?
An elevator of height \(h\) ascends with constant acceleration \(a\). When it crosses a platform, it has acquired a velocity \(u\). At this instant a bolt drops from the top of the elevator. Find the time for the bolt to hit the floor of the elevator. Give your answer in terms of \(h\), \(a\), and any constant.
A ball rolls down a ramp and gains speed. Its velocity is increasing in the negative direction. What can be said about its acceleration?

The displacement \( x \) of an object moving in one dimension is shown above as a function of time \( t \). The acceleration of this object must be
In the lab, a student is given a glass beaker filled with water with an ice cube of mass \( m \) and volume \( V_c \) floating in it.
The downward force of gravity on the ice cube has magnitude \( F_g \). The student pushes down on the ice cube with a force of magnitude \( F_P \) so that the cube is totally submerged. The water then exerts an upward buoyant force on the ice cube of magnitude \( F_B \). Which of the following is an expression for the magnitude of the acceleration of the ice cube when it is released?
Two masses \(m_1\) and \(4m_1\) are on an incline. Both surfaces have the same coefficient of kinetic friction. Both objects start from rest at the same height. Which mass has the largest speed at the bottom?
Two closed containers look the same, but one is packed with lead and the other with a few feathers. How could you determine which has more mass if you and the containers were orbiting in a weightless condition in outer space?
A 75.0kg log floats downstream with a speed of 1.80 m/s. Eight frogs hop onto the log in a series of perfectly inelastic collisions. If each frog has a mass of 0.30 kg and an upstream speed of 1.3 m/s, what is the change in kinetic energy for this system?
A spring with spring constant \( k = 2.3 \) \( \text{N/m} \) is attached to an object of mass \( 10 \) \( \text{kg} \). If the object is hung from the ceiling by this spring, how much would the spring be stretched?
The steepest street in the world is Baldwin Street in Dunedin, New Zealand. It has an inclination angle of \( 38.0^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal. Suppose a wooden crate with a mass of \( 25.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) is placed on Baldwin Street. An additional force of \( 59 \) \( \text{N} \) must be applied to the crate perpendicular to the pavement in order to hold the crate in place. If the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the pavement is \( 0.599 \), what is the magnitude of the frictional force?
While Santa was delivering presents to the children of Nashville, Tennessee he experienced a strong wind perpendicular to his motion.
A \(350\ \text{g}\) ball is attached to the end of a thin, uniform rod of mass \(500\ \text{g}\) and length \(1.2\ \text{m}\). The system is rotated in a horizontal circle about the opposite end of the rod. Calculate the moment of inertia of the system about the axis of rotation. Hint: the moment of inertia of a thin rod about the end of the rod is \(I = \tfrac{1}{3} m L^2\).
Two workers are holding a thin plate with length \(5 \, \text{m}\) and height \(2 \, \text{m}\) at rest by supporting the plate in the bottom corners. The workers are standing at rest on a slope of \(10^\circ\). Treat these supporting forces as vertical normal forces and calculate their magnitudes and state if both workers are sharing “the job” fairly.
A plane, 220 meters high, is dropping a supply crate to an island below. It is traveling with a horizontal velocity of 150 m/s. At what horizontal distance must the plane drop the supply crate for it to land on the island? Use \( g = 9.81 \, m/s^2\).
A car’s velocity increases as follows each second: \( 2 \) \( \text{m/s} \), \( 4 \) \( \text{m/s} \), \( 6 \) \( \text{m/s} \), \( 8 \) \( \text{m/s} \). This pattern shows that the car is:

An isolated spherical star of radius \( R_o \), rotates about an axis that passes through its center with an angular velocity of \( \omega_o \). Gravitational forces within the star cause the star’s radius to collapse and decrease to a value \( r_o < R_o \), but the mass of the star remains constant. A graph of the star’s angular velocity as a function of time as it collapses is shown. Which of the following predictions is correct about the angular momentum \( L \) of the star immediately after the collapse?
A pendulum has a period of \(2.0 \, \text{s}\) on Earth. What is its length?
You are working out on a rowing machine. Each time you pull the rowing bar toward you, it moves a distance of \(1.25 \, \text{m}\) in a time of \(0.84 \, \text{s}\). The readout on the display indicates that the average power you are producing is \(76 \, \text{W}\). What is the magnitude of the force that you exert on the handle?
A Venturi tube has a pressure difference of \( 15\,000 \) \( \text{Pa} \). The entrance radius is \( 3 \) \( \text{cm} \), while the exit radius is \( 1 \) \( \text{cm} \). What are the entrance velocity, exit velocity, and flow rate if the fluid is gasoline \( (\rho = 700 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 ) \)?
Angular momentum cannot be conserved if
Person A throws a ball horizontally from a cliff \( 20 \) \( \text{m} \) tall at \( 12 \) \( \text{m/s} \). Person B is running to the right on the ground and catches the ball at the same height it would’ve landed after running \( 15 \) \( \text{m} \). How fast was Person B running?
