A boy is sitting at a distance [katex] d_1 [/katex] from the fulcrum, and girl is sitting at a distance [katex] d_2 [/katex] from the fulcrum, with [katex] d_1 > d_2 [/katex]. The seesaw is level, with the two ends at the same height. Derive an equation for the minimum mass of the seesaw that will keep it balanced with the two children on it.
A tennis ball is thrown straight up with an initial speed of \( 22.5 \, \text{m/s} \). It is caught at the same distance above ground.
You are working out on a rowing machine. Each time you pull the rowing bar toward you, it moves a distance of 1.25 m in a time of 0.84 s. The readout on the display indicates that the average power you are producing is 76 W. What is the magnitude of the force that you exert on the handle?
A Corvette is traveling at a constant velocity \( 30 \, \text{m/s} \) when it passes a stationary supped up Civic. At that moment, the Civic puts the pedal to the floor and accelerates at \( 6 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). The Civic eventually catches up to the Corvette.
A ball is dropped from a window [katex]10 \, [/katex] above the sidewalk. Determine the time it takes for the ball to fall to the sidewalk.
In a 4.0-kilometer race, a runner completes the first kilometer in 5.9 minutes, the second kilometer in 6.2 minutes, the third kilometer in 6.3 minutes, and the final kilometer in 6.0 minutes. What is the average speed of the runner? Use standard units: m/s.
Two students push a 1750 kg car with a force of 758 N along a perfectly level road at a constant velocity of 4.00 m/s. Find the force of friction.
A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off an 85-meter high cliff, at a speed of 34 m/s. What was the ball’s final speed when it hit the ground below?
A child has a toy tied to the end of a string and whirls the toy at constant speed in a horizontal circular path of radius R. The toy completes each revolution of its motion in a time period T. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the toy (in terms of T, R, and g)?
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
A meter stick of mass 200 grams is balanced at the 40-cm mark when a 100-gram mass is suspended from the 10-cm mark. What is the distance from the pivot point to the center of mass of the meter stick? Give your answer in centimeters.
A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, it is true to say that
