The figure above shows a uniform beam of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) that hangs horizontally and is attached to a vertical wall. A block of mass \( M \) is suspended from the far end of the beam by a cable. A support cable runs from the wall to the outer edge of the beam. Both cables are of negligible mass. The wall exerts a force \( F_w \) on the left end of the beam. For which of the following actions is the magnitude of the vertical component of \( F_w \) smallest?
A 45 kg crate accelerates at 1.65 m/s2 when pulled by a rope with a force of 200 N. Find the angle the rope is pulled at. Friction is negligible.
A \( 60 \ \text{kg} \) person is riding in an elevator. At time \( t_1 \), the elevator is accelerating downward with a magnitude of \( 2 \ \text{m/s}^2 \). A short time later, at time \( t_2 \), the elevator is accelerating upward with a magnitude of \( 2 \ \text{m/s}^2 \). The ratio of the normal force exerted by the elevator on the person at time \( t_1 \) to that at time \( t_2 \) is most nearly
Which pulls harder gravitationally, the Earth on the Moon, or the Moon on the Earth? Which accelerates more?
The total energy of a system in SHM is given by \( E \). At what displacement from equilibrium is the kinetic energy equal to the potential energy?
A block of mass 3.0 kg is hung from a spring, causing it to stretch 12 cm at equilibrium. The 3.0 kg block is then taken off and the spring returns to its original height. Now a 4.0 kg block is placed on the spring and released from rest. How far will the 4.0 kg block fall before its direction is reversed?
One end of a spring is attached to a solid wall while the other end just reaches to the edge of a horizontal, frictionless tabletop, which is a distance \(h\) above the floor. A block of mass \(M\) is placed against the end of the spring and pushed toward the wall until the spring has been compressed a distance \(x\). The block is released and strikes the floor a horizontal distance \(D\) from the edge of the table. Air resistance is negligible. Derive expressions for the following quantities only in terms of \(M, x, D, h,\) and any constants.
A wheel of moment of inertia of \( 5.00 \) \( \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) starts from rest and accelerates under a constant torque of \( 3.00 \) \( \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) for \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \). What is the wheel’s rotational kinetic energy at the end of \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \)?
A cylindrical tank of water (height \( H \)) is punctured at a height \( h \) above the bottom. How far from the base of the tank will the water stream land (in terms of \( h \) and \( H \))? What must the value of \( h \) be such that the distance at which the stream lands will be equal to \( H \)?
A \(4.0 \, \text{kg}\) block is moving at \(5.0 \, \text{m/s}\) along a horizontal frictionless surface toward an ideal spring that is attached to a wall. After the block collides with the spring, the spring is compressed a maximum distance of \(0.68 \, \text{m}\). What is the speed of the block when the spring is compressed to only one-half of the maximum distance?
A car travels at \( 20 \, \text{m/s} \) for \( 5 \, \text{mins} \) and then travels another \( 2 \, \text{km} \) at \( 40 \, \text{m/s} \). What is the total distance traveled and time of travel for the car?

A person holds a book at rest a few feet above a table. The person then lowers the book at a slow constant speed and places it on the table. Which of the following accurately describes the change in the total mechanical energy of the Earth–book system?
A solid sphere of mass \( 1.5 \, \text{kg} \) and radius \( 15 \, \text{cm} \) rolls without slipping down a \( 35^\circ\) incline that is \( 7 \, \text{m} \) long. Assume it started from rest. The moment of inertia of a sphere is \( I= \frac{2}{5}MR^2 \).
The figure shows a truck pulling three crates across a rough road. Which of the following best describes the directions of all the horizontal forces acting on crate 2?
Two masses, \( m_y = 32 \) \( \text{kg} \) and \( m_z = 38 \) \( \text{kg} \), are connected by a rope that hangs over a pulley. The pulley is a uniform cylinder of radius \( R = 0.311 \) \( \text{m} \) and mass \( 3.1 \) \( \text{kg} \). Initially, \( m_y \) is on the ground and \( m_z \) rests \( 2.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
Two blocks, \( m_2 > m_1 \), having the same kinetic energy, move from a frictionless surface onto a surface having friction coefficient \( \mu_k \). Which block will travel further before stopping.
A \( 1.0 \, \text{kg} \) lump of clay is sliding to the right on a frictionless surface with a speed of \( 2 \, \text{m/s} \). It collides head-on and sticks to a \( 0.5 \, \text{kg} \) metal sphere that is sliding to the left with a speed of \( 4 \, \text{m/s} \). What is the kinetic energy of the combined objects after the collision?
A vertical rope of negligible mass supports a block that weighs \(30 N\). The breaking strength of the rope is \( 50 N\). The largest acceleration that can be given to the block by pulling up on it with the rope without breaking the rope is most nearly
There are two cables that lift an elevator, each with a force of \(10{,}000 \, \text{N}\). The \(1{,}000 \, \text{kg}\) elevator is lifted from the first floor and accelerates over \(10 \, \text{m}\) until it reaches its top speed of \(6 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the mass of the people in the elevator?
A friend is balancing a fork on one finger. Which of the following are correct explanations of how he accomplishes this? Select two answers.
Block \(m_1\) is stacked on top of block \(m_2\). Block \(m_2\) is connected by a light cord to block \(m_3\), which is pulled along a frictionless surface with a force \(F\) as shown in the diagram above. Block \(m_1\) is accelerated at the same rate as block \(m_2\) because of the frictional forces between the two blocks. If all three blocks have the same mass \(m\), what is the minimum coefficient of static friction between block \(m_1\) and block \(m_2\)?
The radius of the left piston is \( 0.12 \) \( \text{m} \) and the radius of the right piston is \( 0.65 \) \( \text{m} \). If \( f \) were raised by \( 14 \) \( \text{N} \), how much would \( F \) need to be increased to maintain equilibrium?
