A constant force of strength \( 20 \) \( \text{N} \) acts on an object of mass \( 3 \) \( \text{kg} \) as it moves a distance of \( 4 \) \( \text{m} \). If this force is applied perpendicular to the \( 4 \) \( \text{m} \) displacement, the work done by the force is equal to:
A karate master is about to split a piece of wood with her hand. Select all she must do in order to deliver the maximum force to split the wood.
Using only work and energy, find the velocity of the masses after they have traveled \(0.8 \, \text{m}\). Refer to the image above.
In which one of the following circumstances does the principle of conservation of mechanical energy apply, even though a nonconservative force acts on the moving object?
A toy car moves off the edge of a table that is \(1.25 \, \text{m}\) high. If the car lands \(0.40 \,\text{m}\) from the base of the table…
An object of mass 2 kg is thrown vertically downwards with an initial kinetic energy of 100 J. What is the distance fallen by the object at the instant when its kinetic energy has doubled?
Rex, an auto mechanic, is raising a \( 1200 \) \( \text{kg} \) car on his hydraulic lift so that he can work underneath. If the area of the input piston is \( 12.0 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \), while the output piston has an area of \( 700 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \), what force must be exerted on the input piston to lift the car?
A “doomsday” asteroid with a mass of \( 1010 \, \text{kg} \) is hurtling through space. Unless the asteroid’s speed is changed by about \( 0.20 \, \text{cm/s} \), it will collide with Earth and cause tremendous damage. Researchers suggest that a small “space tug” sent to the asteroid’s surface could exert a gentle constant force of \( 2.5 \, \text{N} \). For how long must this force act?
A \( 60 \ \text{kg} \) person is riding in an elevator. At time \( t_1 \), the elevator is accelerating downward with a magnitude of \( 2 \ \text{m/s}^2 \). A short time later, at time \( t_2 \), the elevator is accelerating upward with a magnitude of \( 2 \ \text{m/s}^2 \). The ratio of the normal force exerted by the elevator on the person at time \( t_1 \) to that at time \( t_2 \) is most nearly
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 simple pendulum consists of a sphere tied to the end of a string of negligible mass. The sphere is pulled back until the string is horizontal and then released from rest. Assume the gravitational potential energy is zero when the sphere is at its lowest point.
What angle will the string make with the horizontal when the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the sphere-Earth system are equal?
A uniform solid cylinder of mass \( M \) and radius \( R \) is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A massless string is attached to the cylinder and is wrapped around it. The string is then pulled with a constant force \( F \) , causing the cylinder to rotate about its center of mass. After the cylinder has rotated through an angle \( \theta \), what is the kinetic energy of the cylinder in terms of \( F \) and \( \theta \)?
A rod of length \( L \) is rotated about its center with \( I = \frac{ML^{2}}{12} \). What is the moment of inertia at either end of the rod?
A ball falls straight down through the air under the influence of gravity. There is a retarding force \(F\) on the ball with magnitude given by \(F=bv\), where \(v\) is the speed of the ball and \(b\) is a positive constant. The ball reaches a terminal velocity after a time \(t\). The magnitude of the acceleration at time \(t/2\) is
Three blocks of masses \(m_3 = 1.0 \, \text{kg}\), \(m_2 = 2.0 \, \text{kg}\), and \(m_1 = 4.0 \, \text{kg}\) are connected by massless strings, one of which passes over a frictionless pulley of negligible mass, as shown above.
A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of \( 5.40 \) \( \text{m/s} \). At a height of \( 105 \) \( \text{m} \) above the Earth, a package is dropped from the helicopter. How much time does it take for the package to reach the ground?
A 2.0 kg wood box slides down a vertical wood wall while you push on it at a 45 ° angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction of wood µk = 0.200. What magnitude of force should you apply to cause the box to slide down at a constant speed?
If the acceleration of an object is \( 0 \), are no forces acting on it? Explain.
You drive \( 4 \) \( \text{km} \) at \( 30 \) \( \text{km/h} \) and then another \( 4 \) \( \text{km} \) at \( 50 \) \( \text{km/h} \). What is your average speed for the whole \( 8 \) \( \text{km} \) trip?
An ice sled powered by a rocket engine starts from rest on a large frozen lake and accelerates at \( +13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). At \( t_1 \), the rocket engine is shut down and the sled moves with constant velocity \( v \) until \( t_2 \). The total distance traveled by the sled is \( 5.30 \times 10^3 \, \text{m} \) and the total time is \( 90.0 \, \text{s} \).
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?
A \( 7.3 \) \( \text{kg} \) mass is placed on a spring with a spring constant of \( 34 \) \( \text{N/cm} \). How much does this stretch the spring?
A communications satellite orbits the Earth at an altitude of \(35{,}000 \, \text{km}\) above the Earth’s surface. Take the mass of Earth to be \(6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}\) and the radius of Earth to be \(6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}\). What is the satellite’s velocity?
