A ski lift carries skiers along a \(695 \, \text{m}\) slope inclined at \(34^\circ\). To lift a single rider, it is necessary to move \(72 \, \text{kg}\) of mass to the top of the lift. Under maximum load conditions, five riders per minute arrive at the top. If \(65\%\) of the energy supplied by the motor goes to overcoming friction, what average power must the motor supply?
On a harsh winter day, a \( 1500 \) \( \text{kg} \) vehicle takes a circular banked exit ramp (radius \( R = 150 \) \( \text{m} \); banking angle of \( 10^\circ \)) at a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{mph} \), since the speed limit is \( 35 \) \( \text{mph} \). However, the exit ramp is completely iced up (frictionless). To make matters worse, a wind is blowing parallel to the ramp in a downward direction. The wind exerts a force of \( 3000 \) \( \text{N} \). Under these conditions, can the driver continue to follow a safe horizontal circle on the exit ramp and stay below the speed limit?
To convert \( \text{mph} \) into \( \text{m/s} \), use \( 1 \) \( \text{mi} = 1607 \) \( \text{m} \) and \( 1 \) \( \text{hr} = 3600 \) \( \text{s} \).
A mine shaft is known to be 57.8 m deep. If you dropped a rock down the shaft, how long would it take for you to hear the sound of the rock hitting the bottom of the shaft knowing that sound travels at a constant velocity of 345 m/s?
The experimental diving rig is lowered from rest at the ocean’s surface and reaches a maximum depth of \(80\) \(\text{m}\). Initially it accelerates downward at a rate of \(0.10\) \(\text{m/s}^2\) until it reaches a speed of \(2.0\) \(\text{m/s}\), which then remains constant. During the descent, the pressure inside the bell remains constant at \(1\) atmosphere. The top of the bell has a cross-sectional area \(A = 9.0\) \(\text{m}^2\). The density of seawater is \(1025\) \(\text{kg/m}^3\).
A brick slides on a horizontal surface. Which of the following will increase the magnitude of the frictional force on it?
A spring is connected to a wall and a horizontal force of \( 80.0 \) \( \text{N} \) is applied. It stretches \( 25 \) \( \text{cm} \); what is its spring constant?
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:
The system in the Figure is in equilibrium. A concrete block of mass \(225 \, \text{kg}\) hangs from the end of a uniform strut whose mass is \(45.0 \, \text{kg}\).
A pendulum with a period of \( 1 \) \( \text{s} \) on Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is \( g \), is taken to another planet, where its period is \( 2 \) \( \text{s} \). The acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is most nearly
A compressed spring mounted on a disk can project a small ball. When the disk is not rotating, as shown in the top view above, the ball moves radially outward. The disk then rotates in a counterclockwise direction as seen from above, and the ball is projected outward at the instant the disk is in the position shown above. Which of the following best shows the subsequent path of the ball relative to the ground?
The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder about its axis is given by \( 0.5MR^2 \). If this cylinder rolls without slipping, the ratio of its rotational kinetic energy to its translational kinetic energy is
A body starting from rest moves along a straight line under the action of a constant force. After traveling a distance \( d \) the speed of the body is \( v \). The speed of the body when it has travelled a distance \( \dfrac{d}{2} \) from its initial position is
A truck of mass 3500 kg hits the back of a small car of mass 1400 kg. Which car exerted more force on the other and why?
A person’s back is against the inner wall of a spinning cylinder with no support under their feet. If the radius is \(R\), find an expression for the minimum angular speed so the person does not slide down the wall. The coefficient of static friction is \(\mu_s\).
If you haven’t studied angular velocity \(\omega\) yet, just find the minumum linear velocity \(v\).
At what distance from the Earth will a spacecraft traveling directly from the Earth to the Moon experience zero net force because the Earth and Moon pull in opposite directions with equal force?
A \( 2 \, \text{kg}\) mass is attached to a spring with spring constant \( k = 100 \, \text{N/m}\) and negligible mass.
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:
At time \( t = 0 \), a cart is at \( x = 10 \, \text{m} \) and has a velocity of \( 3 \, \text{m/s} \) in the \( -x \) direction. The cart has a constant acceleration in the \( +x \) direction with magnitude \( 3 \, \text{m/s}^2 < a < 6 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Which of the following gives the possible range of the position of the cart at \( t = 1 \, \text{s} \)?
The coefficient of static friction between hard rubber and normal street pavement is about \(0.85\). On how steep a hill (maximum angle) can you leave a car parked?
A student uses a pendulum to determine the acceleration due to gravity, \( g \). They measure the pendulum’s length \( L \) and its period \( T \). Which equation should they use to calculate \( g \)?
The axle (the black dot) in Figure 1 is half the distance from the center to the rim. Suppose \( d = 30 \) \( \text{cm} \). What is the torque that the axle must apply to prevent the disk from rotating? Express your answer in newton-meters. Use positive value for the counterclockwise torque and negative value for the clockwise torque.
A pendulum consists of a mass \( M \) hanging at the bottom end of a massless rod of length \( \ell \) which has a frictionless pivot at its top end. A mass \( m \), moving with velocity \( v \), impacts \( M \) and becomes embedded. In terms of the given variables and constants, what is the smallest value of \( v \) sufficient to cause the pendulum (with embedded mass \( m \)) to swing clear over the top of its arc?
The International Space Station has a mass of \(4.2 \times 10^{5} \, \text{kg}\) and orbits Earth at a distance of \(4.0 \times 10^{2} \, \text{km}\) above the surface. Earth has a radius of \(6.37 \times 10^{6} \, \text{m}\) and a mass of \(5.97 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}\). Calculate the following:
A driver is traveling at a speed of \( 18.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) when she sees a red light ahead. Her car is capable of decelerating at a rate of \( 3.65 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). If it takes her \( 0.350 \) \( \text{s} \) to get the brakes on and she is \( 20.0 \) \( \text{m} \) from the intersection when she sees the light, will she be able to stop in time? How far from the beginning of the intersection will she be, and in what direction?
