A block rests on a flat plane inclined at an angle of \(30^\circ\) with respect to the horizontal. What is the minimum coefficient of friction necessary to keep the block from sliding?
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 projectile is launched at an upward angle of \( 30^\circ \) to the horizontal with a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How does the horizontal component of its velocity \( 1.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch compare with its horizontal component of velocity \( 2.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch, ignoring air resistance?
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.
Three blocks are stacked on top of one another. The top block has a mass of \( 4.6 \, \text{kg} \), the middle one has a mass of \( 1.2 \, \text{kg} \), and the bottom one has a mass of \( 3.7 \, \text{kg} \).
Identify and calculate any normal forces between the objects.
During projectile motion (neglecting air resistance), what is the vertical acceleration at the highest point, assuming the initial velocity is upwards in the positive direction?
Two forces produce equal torques on a door about the door hinge. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at the doorknob. Both forces are applied perpendicular to the door. Which force has a greater magnitude?
The object shown in the diagram below consists of a cylinder of mass \( 100 \) \( \text{kg} \) and radius \( 25.0 \) \( \text{cm} \) connected by four thin rods, each of mass \( 5.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) and length \( 0.75 \) \( \text{m} \), to a thin-outer ring of mass \( 20.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). A small chunk of metal of mass \( 1.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) is welded to the outer ring. Determine the moment of inertia of the entire assembly about the center of the inner cylinder, treating the metal chunk as a point mass. Hint: The moment of inertia of a disk about it center is \(\tfrac{1}{2} M R^2\), a thin rod about it center is \(\tfrac{1}{12}ML^2\), and a thin hoop about its center is \(I = MR^2\).
Four systems are in rotational motion. Which of the following combinations of rotational inertia and angular speed for each of the systems corresponds to the greatest rotational kinetic energy?
| System | Rotational Inertia | Angular Speed |
|---|---|---|
| A | \( I_0 \) | \( \omega_0 \) |
| B | \( I_0 \) | \( 4\, \omega_0 \) |
| C | \( 2 I_0 \) | \( 2\, \omega_0 \) |
| D | \( 6 I_0 \) | \( \omega_0 \) |
A student designs an experiment to determine the density of an unknown fluid. The student pours the fluid into a graduated cylinder and attaches an object to a force probe. The object has a density greater than the density of the fluid. The student partially submerges the object into the fluid and records both the volume of fluid displaced in the graduated cylinder and the reading on the force probe. The student then submerges the object further and, at each trial, records the new values of displaced volume and force probe reading until the object is fully submerged. The student constructs a graph of force probe reading (vertical axis) as a function of volume of fluid displaced (horizontal axis). Which of the following statements correctly describes how a feature of this graph is related to the density of the fluid?
Two workers are holding a thin plate with length \(5 \, \text{m}\) and height \(2 \, \text{m}\) at rest by supporting the plate in the bottom corners. The workers are standing at rest on a slope of \(10^\circ\). Treat these supporting forces as vertical normal forces and calculate their magnitudes and state if both workers are sharing “the job” fairly.
When we refer to an object’s speed, we’re talking about:
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 merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, it is true to say that
Why do raindrops fall with constant speed during the later stages of their descent?
A forward horizontal force of \(12 \, \text{N}\) is used to pull a \(240 \, \text{N}\) crate at constant velocity across a horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction is
A \(350\ \text{g}\) ball is attached to the end of a thin, uniform rod of mass \(500\ \text{g}\) and length \(1.2\ \text{m}\). The system is rotated in a horizontal circle about the opposite end of the rod. Calculate the moment of inertia of the system about the axis of rotation. Hint: the moment of inertia of a thin rod about the end of the rod is \(I = \tfrac{1}{3} m L^2\).
A ladder at rest is leaning against a wall at an angle. Which of the following forces must have the same magnitude as the frictional force exerted on the ladder by the floor?
A solid sphere \( I = 0.06 \, \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) spins freely around an axis through its center at an angular speed of \( 20 \, \text{rad/s} \). It is desired to bring the sphere to rest by applying a friction force of magnitude \( 2.0 \, \text{N} \) to the sphere’s outer surface, a distance of \( 0.30 \, \text{m} \) from the sphere’s center. How much time will it take the sphere to come to rest?
If a constant net torque is applied to an object it will (select all that applies):
A cannon fires a cannonball forward. The recoil of the cannon is backward. Why doesn’t the cannon move backward as fast as the cannonball moves forward?
The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of \( 5.0 \) \( \text{rev/s} \) in \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \). At this point, the person doing the laundry opens the lid, and a safety switch turns off the washer. The tub slows to rest in \( 12.0 \) \( \text{s} \). Through how many revolutions does the tub turn during the entire \( 20 \)-s interval? Assume constant angular acceleration while it is starting and stopping.
Water circulates throughout a house in a hot water heating system. If the water is pumped at a speed of \( 0.5 \) \( \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}} \) through a \( 2 \) \( \text{cm} \) diameter pipe in the basement under a pressure of \( 3 \) \( \text{atm} \), what will be the flow speed and pressure in a \( 1.3 \) \( \text{cm} \) diameter pipe on the second floor \( 5 \) \( \text{m} \) above?
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.
