A mine shaft is known to be 57.8 m deep. If you dropped a rock down the shaft, how long would it take for you to hear the sound of the rock hitting the bottom of the shaft knowing that sound travels at a constant velocity of 345 m/s?
One end of a string is wrapped around a pulley that is free to rotate with negligible friction about an axle at its center. The other end of the string is attached to a block. The block is released from rest and moves downward with constant acceleration. Which of the following correctly indicates whether the amount of work done on the pulley by the string during each successive complete rotation remains constant or increases, and provides a valid justification?
A block with mass \( m \) slides at speed \( v_0 \) on a smooth surface and hits a stationary block with mass \( M \). They stick together and move at speed \( \frac{v_0}{3} \). Find \( M \) in terms of \( m \).

In both cases, a massless rod is supported by a fulcrum, and a \(200 \, \text{kg}\) 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 \(50 \, \text{cm}\) long, and the rod in Case B is \(40 \, \text{cm}\) long (each rod is marked at \(10 \, \text{cm}\) intervals). The magnitude of each vertical force \(F\) exerted on the rod will be
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.
A construction worker spins a square sheet of metal of mass 0.040 kg with an angular acceleration of 10.0 rad/s2 on a vertical spindle (pin). What are the dimensions of the sheet if the net torque on the sheet is 1.00 N·m? Assume that the moment of inertia of a rectangle is \( I = \frac{1}{12}M(a^2+b^2) \)
A pool cue ball, mass \(0.7 \, \text{kg}\), is traveling at \(2 \, \text{m/s}\) when it collides head-on with another ball, mass \(0.5 \, \text{kg}\), traveling in the opposite direction with a speed of \(1.2 \, \text{m/s}\). After the collision, the cue ball travels in the opposite direction at \(0.3 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the velocity of the other ball?
A car moving at 30 m/s makes a head-on collision with a stone wall. From what height would the car have to fall in order to make an equally hard collision with the ground?
A \(2 \, \text{kg}\) object slides east at \(4 \, \text{m/s}\) and collides with a stationary \(3 \, \text{kg}\) object. After the collision, the \(2 \, \text{kg}\) object is traveling at an unknown velocity at \(15^\circ\) north of east and the \(3 \, \text{kg}\) object is traveling at \(38^\circ\) south of east. What is each object’s final velocity?
A \( 35 \) \( \text{kg} \) suitcase rests on a luggage‑loading ramp inclined \( 30.0^\circ \) above the horizontal. To keep it from sliding, a baggage‑handler pushes straight into the ramp (perpendicular to the surface) with a force of \( 45 \) \( \text{N} \). Find the coefficient of static friction \( \mu_s \) between the suitcase and the ramp.
A solid ball and a cylinder roll down an inclined plane. Which reaches the bottom first?
Why do pilots sometimes black out while pulling out at the bottom of a dive?
When the speed of a rear-wheel-drive car is increasing on a horizontal road, what is the direction of the frictional force on the tires?
An airplane with a speed of \( 97.5 \, \text{m/s} \) is climbing upward at an angle of \( 50.0^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal. When the plane’s altitude is \( 732 \, \text{m} \), the pilot releases a package.
A \(25.0 \, \text{kg}\) box is released on a \(23.5^\circ\) incline and accelerates down the incline at \(0.35 \, \text{m/s}^2\). Find the friction force impeding its motion. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
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 solid metal bar is at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. It is free to rotate about a vertical axis at the left end. The figures below show forces of different magnitudes that are exerted on the bar at different locations. In which case does the bar’s angular speed about the axis increase at the fastest rate?
A coffee cup on the dashboard of a car slides forward when the driver decelerates from \(45 ~ \frac{\text{km}}{\text{hr}}\) to rest in \(3.5 \, \text{s}\) or less. What is the coefficient of static friction between the cup and the dash? Assume the road and the dashboard are completely horizontal.
In a town’s water system, pressure gauges in still water at street level read \( 150 \) \( \text{kPa} \). If a pipeline connected to the system breaks and shoots water straight up, how high above the street does the water shoot?
If I weigh \( 741 \) \( \text{N} \) on Earth at a place where \( g = 9.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \) and \( 5320 \) \( \text{N} \) on the surface of another planet, what is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?
Three blocks are stacked on top of one another. The top block has a mass of \( 4.6 \, \text{kg} \), the middle one has a mass of \( 1.2 \, \text{kg} \), and the bottom one has a mass of \( 3.7 \, \text{kg} \).
Identify and calculate any normal forces between the objects.
The driver of a car traveling at \( 30.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) applies the brakes and undergoes a constant negative acceleration of \( 2.00 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). How many revolutions does each tire make before the car comes to a stop, assuming that the car does not skid and that the tires have radii of \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \)?
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 \(I = M R^2\)
A projectile is launched at an upward angle of \( 30^\circ \) to the horizontal with a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How does the horizontal component of its velocity \( 1.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch compare with its horizontal component of velocity \( 2.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch, ignoring air resistance?
