A horizontal, uniform board of weight \( 125 \, \text{N} \) and length \( 4 \, \text{m} \) is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing \( 500 \, \text{N} \) is hanging from the board. The tension in the right chain is \( 250 \, \text{N} \).
If you stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator, does its reading change?
What is a man’s apparent weight at the equator if his weight is 500 N? The earth’s radius is 6.37 x 106 m.
An object in simple harmonic motion obeys the following position versus time equation: \( y = (0.50 \text{ m}) \sin \left( \frac{\pi}{2} t \right) \). What is the amplitude of vibration?
Two masses, \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \), are suspended on either side of a pulley with a radius \( R \), as shown. The heavier mass, \( m_2 \), is initially held at rest above the ground by a distance \( h \) before being released. An student measures that it takes an amount of time \( t \) for the heavier mass to hit the ground after being released.
An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. Three forces are exerted on the object. One force is \( 10 \) \( \text{N} \) directed due north, and another is \( 10 \) \( \text{N} \) directed due west. What is the magnitude and direction of the third force if the object is to continue moving to the west at a constant speed?
A cat chases a mouse across a 1.0 m high table. The mouse steps out of the way, and the cat slides off the table and strikes the floor 2.2 m from the edge of the table. When the cat slid off the table, what was its speed?
A 250 newton centripetal force acts on a car moving at a constant speed in a horizontal circle. If the same force is applied, but the radius is made smaller, what happens to the speed v and the frequency f of the car?
Find the downwards acceleration of an elevator, given that the ratio of a person’s stationary weight to their weight in the elevator is 5:4.
An object at rest suddenly explodes into two fragments (m1 and m2) by an explosion. Fragment m1 acquires 3 times the kinetic energy of the other. What is the ratio of m1 to m2?
In both cases, a massless rod is supported by fulcrum, and a 200-kg hanging mass is suspended from the left end of the rod by a cable. A downward force F keeps the rod in rest. The rod in Case A is 50 cm long, and the rod in case B is 40 cm long (each rod is marked at 10-cm intervals). The magnitude of each vertical force F exerted on the rod will be
A car traveling to the right with a speed \( v \) brakes to a stop in a distance \( d \). What is the work done on the car by the frictional force \( F \)? (Assume that the frictional force is constant)
