Which pair of quantities will always have the same magnitude if motion is in a straight line and in one direction?
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 lighter car and a heavier truck, each traveling to the right with the same speed \( v \) hit their brakes. The retarding frictional force F on both cars turns out to be constant and the same. After both vehicles travel a distance \( D \) (and both are still moving), which of the following statements is true?
When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth’s surface of \( 3.00 \) times the Earth’s radius, what is its acceleration due to the Earth’s gravitation?
When can the motion of a pendulum be modeled as simple harmonic motion?
A car with speed \( v \) and an identical car with speed \( 3v \) both travel the same circular section of an unbanked (flat) road. If the frictional force required to keep the faster car on the road without skidding is \( F \), then the frictional force required to keep the slower car on the road without skidding is
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?
While Santa was delivering presents to the children of Nashville, Tennessee he experienced a strong wind perpendicular to his motion.
A horizontal \( 300 \) \( \text{N} \) force pushes a \( 40 \) \( \text{kg} \) object across a horizontal \( 10 \) \( \text{meter} \) frictionless surface. After this, the block slides up a \( 20^\circ \) incline. Assuming the incline has a coefficient of kinetic friction of \( 0.4 \), how far along the incline will the object slide?
A plane, 220 meters high, is dropping a supply crate to an island below. It is traveling with a horizontal velocity of 150 m/s. At what horizontal distance must the plane drop the supply crate for it to land on the island? Use \( g = 9.81 \, m/s^2\).
The International Space Station has a mass of \(4.2 \times 10^{5} \, \text{kg}\) and orbits Earth at a distance of \(4.0 \times 10^{2} \, \text{km}\) above the surface. Earth has a radius of \(6.37 \times 10^{6} \, \text{m}\) and a mass of \(5.97 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}\). Calculate the following:
An arrow is shot horizontally from a distance of \( 20 \, \text{m} \) away. It lands \( 0.05 \, \text{m} \) below the center of the target. If air resistance is negligible, what was the initial speed of the arrow?
A \(25 \, \text{g}\) steel ball is attached to the top of a \(24 \, \text{cm}\)-diameter vertical wheel of negligible mass. Starting from rest, the wheel accelerates at \(470 \, \text{rad/s}^2\). The ball is released after \(\frac{3}{4}\) of a revolution. How high does it go above the center of the wheel?
3 clay balls, labeled A, B, and C are launched from the same height at the same speed as shown above. A is launched at \( 30^\circ \) above horizontal, B is launched horizontally, and C is launched \( 30^\circ \) below the horizontal. They all hit the wall (before reaching the ground) in times \( t_A \), \( t_B \), and \( t_C \) respectively. Rank these times from least to greatest.
A ball is attached to the end of a string. It is swung in a vertical circle of radius \( 0.33 \) \( \text{m} \). What is the minimum velocity that the ball must have to make it around the circle?

The motion of a particle is described in the velocity vs. time graph shown above. Over the nine-second interval shown, we can say that the speed of the particle…
A pendulum has a period of \(2.0 \, \text{s}\) on Earth. What is its length?
A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of \( 5.40 \) \( \text{m/s} \). At a height of \( 105 \) \( \text{m} \) above the Earth, a package is dropped from the helicopter. How much time does it take for the package to reach the ground?
In archery, should the arrow be aimed directly at the target? How should your angle of aim depend on the distance to the target? Explain without using equations.
A 135.0 N force is applied to a 30.0 kg box at 42 degree angle to the horizontal. If the force of friction is 85.0, what is the net force and acceleration? If the object starts from rest, how far has it traveled in 3.3 sec?
A \(4 \, \text{kg}\) mass is traveling at \(10 \, \text{m/s}\) to the right when it collides elastically with a stationary \(7 \, \text{kg}\) mass. The \(7 \, \text{kg}\) mass then travels at \(2 \, \text{m/s}\) at an angle of \(22^\circ\) below the horizontal. What is the velocity of the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) mass?
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 small boat coasts at constant speed under a bridge. A heavy sack of sand is dropped from the bridge onto the boat. The speed of the boat will
A stone hangs by a fine thread from the ceiling, and a section of the same thread dangles from the bottom of the stone. If a person gives a sharp pull on the dangling thread, where is the thread likely to break: below the stone or above it? What if the person gives a slow and steady pull?
