Can an object have a non-zero distance and zero average speed?
A bullet at speed \( v_0 \) trikes 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?
An object is thrown straight upward at 64 m/s.
A \( 25.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) block is placed at the top of an inclined plane set at an angle of \( 35 \) degrees to the horizontal. The block slides down the \( 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) slope at a constant rate. How much work did friction do on the block?
Priscilla the Penguin stands at the edge of a rock ledge and tosses a small ice cube directly upward with an initial velocity of \( v_0 \). The ice cube’s initial height above the ground is \( 3.25 \, \text{m} \), and it reaches its maximum height above the ground \( 0.586 \, \text{s} \) after being thrown. The ice cube then plummets to the ground, missing the edge of the rock ledge on its way down.

The elliptical orbit of a comet is shown above. Positions 1 and 2 are, respectively, the farthest and nearest positions to the Sun, and at position 1 the distance from the comet to the Sun is 10 times that at position 2. At position 2, the comet’s kinetic energy is
A block of mass \( m \), acted on by a force \( F \) directed horizontally, slides up an inclined plane that makes an angle \( \theta \) with the horizontal. The coefficient of sliding friction between the block and the plane is \( \mu \).
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.
A javelin thrower standing at rest holds the center of the javelin behind her head, then accelerates it through a distance of \( 70 \, \text{cm} \) as she throws. She releases the \( 600 \, \text{g} \) javelin \( 2.0 \, \text{m} \) above the ground traveling at an angle of \( 30^\circ \) above the horizontal. In this throw, the javelin hits the ground \( 54 \, \text{m} \) away. Find the following:

A pump, submerged at the bottom of a well that is \( 35 \) \( \text{m} \) deep, is used to pump water uphill to a house that is \( 50 \) \( \text{m} \) above the top of the well, as shown to the right. The density of water is \( 1000 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). All pressures are gauge pressures. Neglect the effects of friction, turbulence, and viscosity.
A force \(F\) is exerted by a broom handle on the head of a broom, which has a mass \(m\). The handle is at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal. The work done by the force on the head of the broom as it moves a distance \(d\) across a horizontal floor is
A loop-de-loop roller coaster has a radius of \( 30 \) \( \text{m} \). Determine the apparent weight a \( 500 \) \( \text{N} \) person will feel at the bottom of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) and at the top of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
Find the downward acceleration of an elevator, given that the ratio of a person’s stationary weight to their weight in the elevator is \(5:4\).
The cart with mass \( M = 3 \, \text{kg} \) is pulled by a massless string and moving on a horizontal track. A weight with mass \( m = 1 \, \text{kg} \) is hung from the other end of the string through a pulley system. Due to the gravitational force acting on the weight of mass \( m \), the cart is accelerated to the left. Find the tension in the string.
A circus cannon fires an acrobat into the air at an angle of \( 45^\circ \) above the horizontal, and the acrobat reaches a maximum height \( y \) above her original launch height. The cannon is now aimed so that it fires straight up, at an identical speed, into the air at an angle of \( 90^\circ \) to the horizontal. In terms of \( y \), what is the acrobat’s new maximum height?
A simple Atwood’s machine remains motionless when equal masses \(M\) are placed on each end of the chord. When a small mass \(m\) is added to one side, the masses have an acceleration \(a\). What is \(M\)? You may neglect friction and the mass of the cord and pulley.
A \(100 \, \text{kg}\) person is riding a \(10 \, \text{kg}\) bicycle up a \(25^\circ\) hill. The hill is long and the coefficient of static friction is \(0.9\). The person rides \(10 \, \text{m}\) up the hill then takes a rest at the top. If she then starts from rest from the top of the hill and rolls down a distance of \(7 \, \text{m}\) before squeezing hard on the brakes locking the wheels, how much work is done by friction to bring the bicycle to a full stop, knowing that the coefficient of kinetic friction is \(0.65\)?
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 object moves at constant speed in a circular path of radius \( r \) at a rate of \( 1 \) revolution per second. What is its acceleration in terms of \(r\)?
Determine the distance from the Earth’s center to a point outside the Earth where the gravitational acceleration due to the Earth is \( \dfrac{1}{10} \) of its value at the Earth’s surface.
An object at rest suddenly explodes into two fragments (\(m_1\) and \(m_2\)) by an explosion. Fragment \(m_1\) acquires \(3\) times the kinetic energy of the other. What is the ratio of \(m_1\) to \(m_2\)?
A baseball is hit high and far across a field. Which of the following statements is true? At the highest point:
A sample of an unknown material appears to weigh \( 285 \) \( \text{N} \) in air and \( 195 \) \( \text{N} \) when immersed in alcohol of specific gravity \( 0.700 \).
