Above is the graph of the velocity vs. time of a duck flying due south for the winter. At what point might the duck begin reversing directions?
Two identical metal balls are being held side by side at the top of a ramp. Alex lets one ball, \( A \), start rolling down the hill. A few seconds later, Alex’s partner, Bob, starts the second ball, \( B \), down the hill by giving it a push. Ball \( B \) rolls down the hill along a line parallel to the path of the first ball and passes it. At the instant ball \( B \) passes ball \( A \):
A car is driving to the right at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \). A motorcycle starts \( 30 \) \( \text{m} \) behind the car and is moving at \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \) in the same direction.
A person is running on a track. Which of the following forces propels the runner forward?
A spherical balloon of mass \( 226 \) \( \text{kg} \) is filled with helium gas until its volume is \( 325 \) \( \text{m}^3 \). Assume the density of air is \( 1.29 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \) and the density of helium is \( 0.179 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \).
Five forces act on a rod that is free to pivot at point \( P \), as shown in the figure. Which of these forces is producing a counter-clockwise torque about point \( P \)?
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?
Refer to the diagram above and solve all equations in terms of \(R\), \(M\), \(k\), and constants.
A bullet moving with an initial speed of \( v_o \) strikes and embeds itself in a block of wood which is suspended by a string, causing the bullet and block to rise to a maximum height \( h \). Which of the following statements is true of the collision.
Determine the sum of the three vectors given below. Calculate the resultant \( \vec{R} \) expressed as:
(a) Vector components
(b) Resultant vector (its total magnitude and direction)

An egg dropped on the road usually beaks, while one dropped on the grass usually does not break because for the egg dropped on the grass:
A solid plastic cube with uniform density (side length = \(0.5\) \(\text{m}\)) of mass \(100\) \(\text{kg}\) is placed in a vat of fluid whose density is \(1200\) \(\text{kg/m}^3\). What fraction of the cube’s volume floats above the surface of the fluid?
Two people, one of mass \( 88 \) \( \text{kg} \) and the other of mass \( 55 \) \( \text{kg} \), sit in a rowboat of mass \( 70 \) \( \text{kg} \). With the boat initially at rest, the two people, who have been sitting at opposite ends of the boat \( 3.1 \) \( \text{m} \) apart from each other, now exchange seats.
A \(90 \, \text{kg}\) individual is cycling up a hill inclined at \(30^\circ\) on a \(12 \, \text{kg}\) bicycle. The hill is quite steep, and the coefficient of static friction is \(0.85\). The cyclist ascends \(12 \, \text{m}\) up the hill and then pauses at the summit. They then start descending from rest and travel \(9 \, \text{m}\) before firmly applying the brakes, causing the wheels to lock.
An \(80 \, \text{kg}\) person sits on a swing ride that moves in a horizontal circle. The swing is suspended by a chain of length \(8 \, \text{m}\). While in motion, the chain makes a \(40^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. What is the speed of the person?
A \( 6.00 \, \text{m} \) long, \( 500 \, \text{kg} \) steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new building under construction. A \( 70 \, \text{kg} \) construction worker stands at the far end of the beam. What is the magnitude of the torque about the bolt due to the worker and the weight of the beam?
A \(0.5 \, \text{kg}\) cart, on a frictionless \(2 \, \text{m}\) long table, is being pulled by a \(0.1 \, \text{kg}\) mass connected by a string and hanging over a pulley. The system is released from rest. After the hanging mass falls \(0.5 \, \text{m}\), calculate the speed of the cart on the table. Use ONLY forces and energy.
When a horizontal force of \( 4.5 \, \text{N} \) acts on a block on a resistance-free surface, it produces an acceleration of \( 2.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Suppose a second \( 4.0 \, \text{kg} \) block is dropped onto the first. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the combination if the same force continues to act? Assume that the second block does not slide on the first block.
A stone is thrown horizontally at \(8.0 \, \text{m/s}\) from a cliff \(80 \,\text{m}\) high. How far from the base of the cliff will the stone strike the ground?
Consider a rigid body that is rotating. Which of the following is an accurate statement?
A small block slides without friction along a track toward a circular loop. The block has more than enough speed to remain firmly in contact with the track as it goes around the loop. The magnitude of the block’s acceleration at the top of the loop is
A projectile is launched at \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 45^\circ \). It lands on a slope \( 5 \) \( \text{m} \) below the launch height. On landing, it rebounds vertically with \( 80\% \) of its speed and falls straight down from there. Find the total time from launch to final impact at the base of the slope.
