A rescue helicopter lifts a 79 kg person straight up by means of a cable. The person has an upward acceleration of 0.70 m/s2 and is lifted through a distance of 11 m.
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.
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?
What does displacement mean in the context of motion?
A \(5.0 \, \text{g}\) coin is placed \(15 \, \text{cm}\) from the center of a turntable. The coin has coefficients of static and kinetic friction of \(\mu_s = 0.80\) and \(\mu_k = 0.50\). The turntable slowly speeds up to \(60 \, \text{rpm}\). Does the coin slide off the turntable?
A point on the edge of a disk rotates around the center of the disk with an initial angular velocity of 3 rad/s clockwise. The graph shows the point’s angular acceleration as a function of time. The positive direction is considered to be counterclockwise. All frictional forces are considered to be negligible.
A student sets an object attached to a spring into oscillatory motion and uses a motion detector to record the velocity of the object as a function of time. The total change in the object’s speed between \(1.0 \, \text{s}\) and \(1.1 \, \text{s}\) is most nearly
A solid sphere, solid cylinder, and a hollow pipe all have equal masses and radii. If the three of them are released simultaneously from the top of an inclined plane and do not slip, which one will reach the bottom first?
Water at a gauge pressure of \( 3.8 \) \( \text{atm} \) at street level flows into an office building at a speed of \( 0.78 \) \( \text{m/s} \) through a pipe \( 5.0 \) \( \text{cm} \) in diameter. The pipe tapers down to \( 2.8 \) \( \text{cm} \) in diameter by the top floor, \( 16 \) \(\text{m} \) above, where the faucet has been left open. Calculate the flow velocity AND the gauge pressure in the pipe on the top floor. Assume no branch pipes and ignore viscosity.
If an elephant were chasing you, its enormous mass would be most threatening. But if you zigzagged, its mass would be to your advantage. Why?
From the top of a \( 74.0 \) \( \text{m} \) high building, a \( 1.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) ball is dropped in the presence of air resistance. The ball reaches the ground with a speed of \( 31.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \), indicating that drag was significant. How much energy was lost in the form of air resistance/drag during the fall?
At time \( t = 0 \) an object is traveling to the right along the \( +x \) axis at a speed of \( 10.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) with acceleration \( -2.0 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). Which statement is true?
A solid sphere, solid cylinder, and a hollow pipe all have equal masses and radii. If the three of them are released simultaneously at the top of an inclined plane and do not slip, which one will reach the bottom first? [katex] I_{sphere} = \frac{2}{5}MR^2[/katex], [katex] I_{cylinder} = \frac{1}{2}MR^2[/katex], [katex] I_{pipe} = MR^2[/katex]
What is the effect on the period of a pendulum if you double its length?
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 \( 1 \) \( \text{hr} = 3600 \) \( \text{s} \).
Consider a rigid body that is rotating. Which of the following is an accurate statement?
A big bird has a mass of about 0.021 kg. Suppose it does 0.36 J of work against gravity, so that it ascends straight up with a net acceleration of 0.625 m/s2. How far up does it move?
A solid ball and a cylinder roll down an inclined plane. Which reaches the bottom first?
A person stands on a scale in an elevator. If the scale reads \( 600 \, \text{N} \) when that person is riding upward at a constant velocity of \( 4 \, \text{m/s} \), what is the scale reading when the elevator is at rest? Hint: The reading on the scale is simply the normal force.
Consider a uniform hoop of radius \( R \) and mass \( M \) rolling without slipping. Which is larger, its translational kinetic energy or its rotational kinetic energy? Hint: The moment of inertia of a uniform hoop is \(I = M R^2\)
Police officers have measured the length of a car’s tire skid marks to be \( 23 \, \text{m} \). This particular car is known to decelerate at a constant \( 7.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). What was the car’s initial velocity?
If a small motor does 520 J of work to move a toy car 260 meters in a time of 37 seconds.
