A car rounds a curve at a steady \( 50 \) \( \text{km/h} \). If it rounds the same curve at a steady \( 70 \) \( \text{km/h} \), will its acceleration be any different?
A \(1200 \, \text{kg}\) car moving at \(15.6 \, \text{m/s}\) suddenly collides with a stationary car of mass \(1500 \, \text{kg}\). If the two vehicles lock together, what is their combined velocity immediately after the collision?
A \( 4 \)-\( \text{kg} \) ball and a \( 1 \)-\( \text{kg} \) ball are positioned a distance \( L \) apart on a bar of negligible mass. How far from the \( 4 \)-\( \text{kg} \) mass should the fulcrum be placed to balance the bar?
A system consists of a disk rotating on a frictionless axle and a piece of clay moving toward it, as shown in the figure above. The outside edge of the disk is moving at a linear speed \( v \), and the clay is moving at speed \( \frac{v}{2} \). The clay sticks to the outside edge of the disk. How does the angular momentum of the system after the clay sticks compare to the angular momentum of the system before the clay sticks, and what is an explanation for the comparison?
A net torque is applied to the edge of a spinning object as it rotates about its internal axis. The table shows the net torque exerted on the object at different instants in time. How can a student use the data table to determine the change in angular momentum of the object from \( 0 \) to \( 6 \) \( \text{s} \)? Justify your selection.
| Time \( (\text{s}) \) | Net Torque \( (\text{N} \cdot \text{m}) \) |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 1.5 |
| 4 | 3.0 |
| 6 | 4.5 |
If a small motor does 520 J of work to move a toy car 260 meters in a time of 37 seconds.
Ball 1 is dropped from rest at time \( t = 0 \) from a tower of height \( h \). At the same instant, ball 2 is launched upward from the ground with the initial speed \( v_0 \). If air resistance is negligible, at what time \( t \) will the two balls pass each other?
A box rests on the (frictionless) bed of a truck. The truck driver starts the truck and accelerates forward. The box immediately starts to slide toward the rear of the truck bed.
The side of an above-ground pool is punctured, and water gushes out through the hole. If the total depth of the pool is \( 2.5 \) \( \text{m} \), and the puncture is \( 1 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground level, what is the efflux speed of the water?
Consider a neutron star with a mass equal to the sun, a radius of 10 km, and a rotation period of 1.0 s. What is the radius of a geosynchronous orbit about the neutron star? The mass of the sun can be found in the formula sheet above.
Two balls are launched at the same time from opposite sides of a \( 100 \) \( \text{m} \) wide and \(1000 ~\text{m}\) canyon. Ball A is launched at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at \( 45^{\circ} \) from the left side. Ball B is launched at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at \( 45^{\circ} \) from the right side.
A \(30 \, \text{g}\) bullet is fired with a speed of \(500 \, \text{m/s}\) into a wall.

An object is released from rest near the surface of a planet. The velocity of the object as a function of time is expressed in the following equation. \( v_y = (-3) \, \text{m/s}^2 \, t \) All frictional forces are considered to be negligible. What distance does the object fall \( 10 \) \( \text{s} \) after it is released from rest?
By pressing a painting of mass \( 2.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) against a wall, a man is trying to determine whether it is appropriately positioned. The wall is perpendicular to the pushing force. The coefficient of static friction between the image and the wall is \( 0.660 \). What is the bare minimum pushing force that must be applied?
A person pulls a rope with a force \( F \) at an angle of \( 60^\circ \) to the horizontal. The rope is connected to a load over a frictionless pulley as shown in the diagram. The load is stationary. Which of the following is correct about the weight of the load and the net force exerted on the pulley by the rope?
The figure shows a horizontal pipe with sections with different cross-sectional areas. Small tubes extend from the top of each section. The cross-sectional area of the pipe at location C is half that at A, and the areas at A and D are the same. Water flows in the pipe from left to right. Which of the following correctly ranks the height \( h \) of the water in the tubes above the labeled locations?
Why do you tend to slide across the car seat when the car makes a sharp turn?
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 \( H \)?
Find the following three values using just rotational kinematics.
A pendulum has a period of \(2.0 \, \text{s}\) on Earth. What is its length?
