At time \( t = 0 \), an object is released from rest at position \( x = +x_{\text{max}} \) and undergoes simple harmonic motion along the \( x \)-axis about the equilibrium position of \( x = 0 \). The period of oscillation of the object is \( T \). Which of the following expressions is equal to the object’s position at time \( t = \dfrac{T}{8} \)?
A mine shaft is known to be 57.8 m deep. If you dropped a rock down the shaft, how long would it take for you to hear the sound of the rock hitting the bottom of the shaft knowing that sound travels at a constant velocity of 345 m/s?
A horizontal uniform rod of length L and mass M is pivoted at one end and is initially at rest. A small ball of mass M (same masses) is attached to the other end of the rod. The system is released from rest. What is the angular acceleration of the rod just immediately after the system is released?
A simple Atwood’s machine remains motionless when equal masses \(M\) are placed on each end of the chord. When a small mass \(m\) is added to one side, the masses have an acceleration \(a\). What is \(M\)? You may neglect friction and the mass of the cord and pulley.
A ring of negligible mass remains in static equilibrium under the influence of three coplanar forces, as shown in the accompanying diagram. Two forces, each with a magnitude of \(10 \, \text{N}\), act on the ring at an angle \(\theta\) above the horizontal—one directed to the right and the other to the left. A third force, \(F\), acts vertically downward. Determine the magnitude of force \(F\).
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 car accelerates from rest with an acceleration of \( 3.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) for \( 10 \, \text{s} \). After this, it continues at a constant speed for an unknown amount of time. The driver notices a ramp \( 50 \, \text{m} \) ahead and takes \( 0.6 \, \text{s} \) to react. After reacting, the driver hits the brakes, which slow the car with an acceleration of \( 7.2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Unfortunately, the driver does not stop in time and goes off the \( 3 \, \text{m} \) high ramp that is angled at \( 27^\circ \).
An eagle is flying horizontally at \(6 \, \text{m/s}\) with a fish in its claws. It accidentally drops the fish.
Why do pilots sometimes black out while pulling out at the bottom of a dive?
A person stands on a scale in an elevator. His apparent weight will be the greatest when the elevator
Two spheres of equal size and equal mass are rotated with an equal amount of torque. One of the spheres is solid with its mass evenly distributed throughout its volume, and the other is hollow with all of its mass concentrated at the edges. Which sphere would rotate faster if the same amount of torque is applied for the same period of time for both?
A ladder 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?
The angular velocity of a rotating disk of radius \(20 \, \text{cm}\) increases from \(1 \, \text{rad/s}\) to \(3 \, \text{rad/s}\) in \(0.5 \, \text{s}\). What is the linear tangential acceleration of a point on the rim of the disk during this time interval?
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?
A person is trying to judge whether a picture (mass = 1.42 kg) is properly positioned by temporarily pressing it against a wall. The pressing force is perpendicular to the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the picture and the wall is 0.62. What is the minimum amount of pressing force that must be used?
A rescue plane wants to drop supplies to isolated mountain climbers on a rocky ridge that is \( 235 \) \( \text{m} \) below. The plane is traveling horizontally with a speed of \( 250 \) \( \text{km/h} \). How far in advance of the recipients (horizontal distance) must the goods be dropped?
Above is the graph of the velocity vs. time of a duck flying due south for the winter. At what point might the duck begin reversing directions?
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.
You throw a rock straight up with an initial velocity of \( 5.0 \, \text{m/s} \).
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 |
During lunch, Alex and Jordan argue about inertia. Alex says if she spins a basketball faster, it will have greater inertia. Jordan argues that inertia only depends on the ball’s mass, not its speed. Who is correct?
A large beach ball is dropped from the ceiling of a school gymnasium to the floor about 10 meters below. Which of the following graphs would best represent its velocity as a function of time? (do not neglect air resistance)
The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere (mass \( M \), radius \( R \)) about a diameter is \( \frac{2}{5}MR^2 \). The sphere is placed on an inclined plane (angle \( \theta \)) and released from rest.
The graph in the figure shows the position of a particle as it travels along the x-axis. At what value of \(t\) is the speed of the particle equal to \(0 \, \text{m/s}\)?
note that the slope of position vs time is velocity. And the graph most closely reemsbles a flat or 0 slope at 3 seconds
