Which pair of graphs represents the same 1-dimensional motion?
A high-speed flywheel in a motor is spinning at \( 500 \) \( \text{rpm} \) when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has a mass of \( 40 \) \( \text{kg} \) and a diameter of \( 75 \) \( \text{cm} \). The power is off for \( 30 \) \( \text{s} \) and during this time the flywheel slows due to friction in its axle bearings. During this time the flywheel makes \( 200 \) complete revolutions.
A car accelerates from \( 0 \) to \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) in \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). If the car’s tires have a diameter of \( 70 \) \( \text{cm} \), how many revolutions does a tire make while accelerating?
Four blocks of masses \( 20 \, \text{kg}, \, 30 \, \text{kg}, \, 40 \, \text{kg}, \, \text{and} \, 50 \, \text{kg} \) are stacked on top of one another in an elevator in order of decreasing mass with the lightest mass on the top of the stack. The elevator moves downward with an acceleration of \( 3.2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Find the contact force between the \( 30 \, \text{kg} \) and \( 40 \, \text{kg} \) masses.
Using only work and energy, find the velocity of the masses after they have traveled \(0.8 \, \text{m}\). Refer to the image above.
A solid ball and a cylinder roll down an inclined plane. Which reaches the bottom first? Hint the rotational inertia of a sphere about its center is \(I = \frac{2}{5}mR^{2}\) and the rotational inertia of a cylinder about its center is \(I = \frac{1}{2}mR^{2}\).
According to Newton’s third law, each team in a tug of war pulls with equal force on the other team. What, then, determines which team will win?
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?
Consider a solid uniform sphere of radius \(R\) and mass \(M\) rolling without slipping. Which form of its kinetic energy is larger, translational or rotational?
A block is attached to a horizontal spring and is initially at rest at the equilibrium position \( x = 0 \), as shown in Figure \( 1 \). The block is then moved to position \( x = -A \), as shown in Figure \( 2 \), and released from rest, undergoing simple harmonic motion. At the instant the block reaches position \( x = +A \), another identical block is dropped onto and sticks to the block, as shown in Figure \( 3 \). The two–block–spring system then continues to undergo simple harmonic motion. Which of the following correctly compares the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},2} \) of the two–block–spring system after the collision to the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},1} \) of the one–block–spring system before the collision?
On another planet, a ball is in free fall after being released from rest at time \( t = 0 \). A graph of the height of the ball above the planet’s surface as a function of time \( t \) is shown. The acceleration due to gravity on the planet is most nearly
An object weighing 120 N is set on a rigid beam of negligible mass at a distance of 3 m from a pivot, as shown above. A vertical force is to be applied to the other end of the beam a distance of 4 m from the pivot to keep the beam at rest and horizontal. What is the magnitude F of the force required?
Water circulates throughout a house in a hot water heating system. If the water is pumped at a speed of \( 0.5 \) \( \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}} \) through a \( 2 \) \( \text{cm} \) diameter pipe in the basement under a pressure of \( 3 \) \( \text{atm} \), what will be the flow speed and pressure in a \( 1.3 \) \( \text{cm} \) diameter pipe on the second floor \( 5 \) \( \text{m} \) above?
A baseball is tossed from street level by a student straight up at a speed of \(25.3 \text{ m/s}\). After reaching maximum height, it is caught by another student on the roof of a building, \(17.4 \text{ m}\) above the street. How long did this take?
Two wires are tied to the \(500 \, \text{g}\) sphere as shown above. The sphere revolves in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of \(7.2 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the tension in the upper wire? What is the tension in the lower wire?
A \(10 \, \text{kg}\) box is pushed to the right by an unknown force at an angle of \(25^\circ\) below the horizontal while a friction force of \(50 \, \text{N}\) acts on the box as well. The box accelerates from rest and travels a distance of \(4 \, \text{m}\) where it is moving at \(3 \, \text{m/s}\).
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?
A 75.0kg log floats downstream with a speed of 1.80 m/s. Eight frogs hop onto the log in a series of perfectly inelastic collisions. If each frog has a mass of 0.30 kg and an upstream speed of 1.3 m/s, what is the change in kinetic energy for this system?
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?
Ben’s favorite ride at the Barrel-O-Fun Amusement Park is the Flying Umbrella, which is lifted by a hydraulic jack. The operator activates the ride by applying a force of \( 72 \) \( \text{N} \) to a \( 3.0 \) \( \text{cm} \) wide cylindrical piston, which holds the \( 20,000 \) \( \text{N} \) ride off the ground. What is the diameter of the piston that holds the ride?
Two wires support an unknown mass as shown in the diagram. The tension in the left wire is measured to be \( 17.5 \) \( \text{N} \) and the tension in the right wire is \( 30.3 \) \( \text{N} \). The left wire makes an angle of \( 30^{\circ} \) with the horizontal, and the right wire makes an angle of \( 60^{\circ} \) with the horizontal. What is the mass of the object?
A boat can row across a still \( 1 \, \text{km} \) wide river at a maximum speed of \( 5 \, \text{km/hr} \). If a current of \( 4 \, \text{km/hr} \) flows east as you try to directly cross the river, how long would it take?
A \(81 \, \text{kg}\) student dives off a \(45 \, \text{m}\) tall bridge with an \(18 \, \text{m}\) long bungee cord tied to his feet and to the bridge. You can consider the bungee cord to be a flexible spring. What spring constant must the bungee cord have for the student’s lowest point to be \(2.0 \, \text{m}\) above the water?
During the experiment, students collect data about the angular momentum of a rigid, uniform spinning wheel about an axle as a function of time, which was used to create the graph that is shown. A frictional torque is exerted on the wheel. A student makes the following statement about the data. “The frictional torque exerted on the wheel is independent of the wheel’s angular speed.” Does the data from the graph support the student’s statement? Justify your selection.
