A \( 7.3 \) \( \text{kg} \) mass is placed on a spring with a spring constant of \( 34 \) \( \text{N/cm} \). How much does this stretch the spring?
A car accelerates from \( 0 \) to \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) in \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). If the car’s tires have a diameter of \( 70 \) \( \text{cm} \), how many revolutions does a tire make while accelerating?
A skydiver reaches a terminal velocity of \(55.0\, \mathrm{m/s}\). At terminal velocity, the skydiver no longer accelerates. The mass of the skydiver and her equipment is \(87.0\, \mathrm{kg}\). What is the force of friction acting on her?

The diagram above shows a top view of a child of mass \(M\) on a circular platform of mass \(2M\) that is rotating counterclockwise. Assume the platform rotates without friction. Which of the following describes an action by the child that will increase the angular speed of the platform-child system and gives the correct reason why?

What is the net torque acting on the pivot supporting a \(10 \, \text{kilogram}\) beam \(2 \, \text{meters}\) long as shown above? Assume that the positive direction is clockwise.

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 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?
A pendulum bob of mass m on a cord of length L is pulled sideways until the cord makes an angle \( \theta \) with the vertical. The change in potential energy of the bob during the displacement is:
When a box is about to slide but hasn’t moved yet, which friction is acting?
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?
| Speed | \( 10 \, \mathrm{m/s} \) | \( 20 \, \mathrm{m/s} \) | \( 30 \, \mathrm{m/s} \) |
| Braking Distance | \( 6.1 \, \mathrm{m} \) | \( 23.9 \, \mathrm{m} \) | \( 53.5 \, \mathrm{m} \) |
A car of mass \( 1500 \, \mathrm{kg} \) is traveling at one of the speeds listed when the brakes are first applied. Using the data above, what is the magnitude of the average braking force required to stop the car?

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.
What is the defining characteristic of the restoring force that causes an object to undergo Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)?
A horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing 500 N is sitting on the board. The tension in the right chain is 250 N. How far from the left end of the board is the person sitting?
A skier is accelerating down a \( 30.0^{\circ} \) hill at \( 3.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \).

A conical pendulum is formed by attaching a ball of mass \( m \) to a string of length \( \ell \), then allowing the ball to move in a horizontal circle of radius \( r \). The following figure shows that the string traces out the surface of a cone, hence the name.
A boat can row across a still \( 1 \, \text{km} \) wide river at a maximum speed of \( 5 \, \text{km/hr} \). If a current of \( 4 \, \text{km/hr} \) flows east as you try to directly cross the river, how long would it take?
A person stands on a scale in an elevator. His apparent weight will be the greatest when the elevator
A ball is tossed straight up while the thrower is standing in a moving train car that is moving at a constant velocity. Neglecting air resistance, what is the path of the ball relative to the ground outside the train?
A pendulum has a period of \(2.0 \, \text{s}\) on Earth. What is its length?
For linear motion the term “inertia” refers to the same physical concept of
A \(2 \, \text{kg}\) object slides east at \(4 \, \text{m/s}\) and collides with a stationary \(3 \, \text{kg}\) object. After the collision, the \(2 \, \text{kg}\) object is traveling at an unknown velocity at \(15^\circ\) north of east and the \(3 \, \text{kg}\) object is traveling at \(38^\circ\) south of east. What is each object’s final velocity?
An Olympic bobsled team goes through a horizontal curve at a speed of \( 120 \) \( \text{km/hr} \). If the radius of curvature is \( 10.0 \) \( \text{m} \), what is the apparent weight the crew experiences—express in terms of \( mg \)?
