A car accelerates uniformly from rest to \( 29.4 \) m/s in \( 6.93 \) s along a level stretch of road. Ignoring friction, determine the average power in both watts and horsepower (\( 1 \text{ horsepower} = 745.7 \text{ Watts} \)) required to accelerate the car if:
A car slows down uniformly from a speed of \( 28.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) to rest in \( 8.00 \) \( \text{s} \). How far did it travel in that time?
Two satellites are in circular orbits around Earth. Satellite A has speed \(v_A\). Satellite B has an orbital radius nine times that of satellite A. What is the speed of satellite B?
A bald eagle in level flight at a height of \(135 \, \text{m}\) drops the fish it caught. If the eagle’s speed is \(25.0 \, \text{m/s}\) how far from the drop point will the fish land?
A motorcycle has tires with a diameter of \( 44.0 \) \( \text{cm} \). Cruising down the highway, they are rotating at \( 1150 \) \( \text{rpm} \) (revolutions per minute).
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 car travels east at a steady \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \) for \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). What is its acceleration during this motion?
In a controlled experiment, engineers test a firecracker. The firecracker has mass \( m \) and is placed at rest on a horizontal surface. When the firecracker is lit, it explodes and breaks apart into two pieces. In the first trial, one piece with mass \( \frac{m}{2} \) moves to the left with speed \( v_L \) and the other piece moves to the right with speed \( v_R \). A second trial is performed with an identical firecracker, and one piece with mass \( \frac{3m}{4} \) moves to the left, again with speed \( v_L \). What will the speed of the other piece be in this second trial?
An isolated spherical star of radius \( R_o \), rotates about an axis that passes through its center with an angular velocity of \( \omega_o \). Gravitational forces within the star cause the star’s radius to collapse and decrease to a value \( r_o < R_o \), but the mass of the star remains constant. A graph of the star’s angular velocity as a function of time as it collapses is shown. Which of the following predictions is correct about the angular momentum \( L \) of the star immediately after the collapse?
A high-speed flywheel in a motor is spinning at \( 500 \) \( \text{rpm} \) when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has a mass of \( 40 \) \( \text{kg} \) and a diameter of \( 75 \) \( \text{cm} \). The power is off for \( 30 \) \( \text{s} \) and during this time the flywheel slows due to friction in its axle bearings. During this time the flywheel makes \( 200 \) complete revolutions.
A car accelerates from rest with an acceleration of \( 4.3 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) for a time of \( 6.8 \, \text{s} \). The car then slows to a stop with an acceleration of \( 5.1 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). What is the total distance traveled by the car?
A spinning ice skater on extremely smooth ice is able to control the rate at which she rotates by pulling in her arms. Which of the following statements are true about the skater during this process?
Rex, an auto mechanic, is raising a \( 1200 \) \( \text{kg} \) car on his hydraulic lift so that he can work underneath. If the area of the input piston is \( 12.0 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \), while the output piston has an area of \( 700 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \), what force must be exerted on the input piston to lift the car?
A cart begins to move from rest on a horizontal track. Which of the following correctly indicates the magnitude of the average velocity of the cart during the interval shown and provides a valid explanation?
Hint: when solving this, its consider that the area of the acceleration vs time graph tells you the change in velocity.
Gregory was walking through the halls of the school when he realized that he was walking in perpendicular directions and he could easily calculate his displacement using the incredibly useful techniques he learned in physics. He recognized that he walked \(12.5\ \text{m}\) left and then \(18.9\ \text{m}\) down. How far must he walk to the right so that his resultant displacement is \(20.1\ \text{m}\)?
Two balls are thrown off a building with the same speed, one straight up and one at a 45° angle. Which statement is true if air resistance can be ignored?
Find the following three values using just rotational kinematics.
A sphere starts from rest and rolls down an incline of height \( H = 1.0 \) \( \text{m} \) at an angle of \( 25^\circ \) with the horizontal, as shown above. The radius of the sphere \( R = 15 \) \( \text{cm} \), and its mass \( m = 1.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). The moment of inertia for a sphere is \( \frac{2}{5}mR^2 \). What is the speed of the sphere when it reaches the bottom of the plane?
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
A hungry bear weighing 700 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of goodies hanging at the end of the beam. The beam is uniform, weighs 200 N, and is 6.00 m long. The goodies weigh 80 N.
Late one morning, a mosquito collides with the windshield of a speeding truck. The force of the truck on the mosquito is ____ the force of the mosquito on the truck; the resulting acceleration of the mosquito is ____ the acceleration of the truck.
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?
In which of the following cases does a car have a negative velocity and a positive acceleration? A car that is traveling in the:
