A string is wound tightly around a fixed pulley having a radius of 5.0 cm. As the string is pulled, the pulley rotates without any slipping of the string. What is the angular speed of the pulley when the string is moving at 5.0 m/s?
A block is attached to a horizontal spring and is initially at rest at the equilibrium position \( x = 0 \), as shown in Figure \( 1 \). The block is then moved to position \( x = -A \), as shown in Figure \( 2 \), and released from rest, undergoing simple harmonic motion. At the instant the block reaches position \( x = +A \), another identical block is dropped onto and sticks to the block, as shown in Figure \( 3 \). The two–block–spring system then continues to undergo simple harmonic motion. Which of the following correctly compares the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},2} \) of the two–block–spring system after the collision to the total mechanical energy \( E_{\text{tot},1} \) of the one–block–spring system before the collision?
A rod may freely rotate about an axis that is perpendicular to the rod and is along the plane of the page. The rod is divided into four sections of equal length of 0.2 m each, and four forces are exerted on the rod, as shown in the figure. Frictional forces are considered negligible. Which of the following describes an additional torque that must be applied in order to keep the rod from rotating?
Two blocks of the same size are floating in a container of water. The first block is submerged \( 80\% \) while the second block is submerged by \( 20\% \) beneath the water. Which of the following is a correct statement about the two blocks?
A meter stick of mass 200 grams is balanced at the 40-cm mark when a 100-gram mass is suspended from the 10-cm mark. What is the distance from the pivot point to the center of mass of the meter stick? Give your answer in centimeters.
What is the effect on the period of a pendulum if you double its length?
An object in simple harmonic motion obeys the following position versus time equation: \( y = (0.50 \text{ m}) \sin \left( \frac{\pi}{2} t \right) \). What is the amplitude of vibration?
Two identical arrows, one with \( 2 \) times the speed of the other, are fired into a bale of hay. Assuming the hay exerts a constant “frictional” force on the arrows, the faster arrow will penetrate how much farther than the slower arrow?
A uniform rope of weight \( 30 \, \text{N} \) hangs from a hook. A box of mass \( 40 \, \text{kg} \) is suspended from the rope. What is the tension in the rope?
Wile E. Coyote is (still) chasing after his arch-nemesis, the Roadrunner across a cliff that is \(125 \, \text{m}\) high. The Coyote is running in the horizontal direction towards the edge of a cliff when, at the last second, the Roadrunner steps out of the way and the witless coyote falls to the canyon floor.
In both cases, a massless rod is supported by a fulcrum, and a \(200 \, \text{kg}\) hanging mass is suspended from the left end of the rod by a cable. A downward force \(F\) keeps the rod in rest. The rod in Case A is \(50 \, \text{cm}\) long, and the rod in Case B is \(40 \, \text{cm}\) long (each rod is marked at \(10 \, \text{cm}\) intervals). The magnitude of each vertical force \(F\) exerted on the rod will be
A ball is launched at an angle. At the peak of its trajectory, which of the following is true?
You drop a rock off a bridge. When the rock has fallen \( 4 \) \( \text{m} \), you drop a second rock. As the two rocks continue to fall, what happens to their velocities?
A ball of mass \(m\) is released from rest at a distance \(h\) above a frictionless plane inclined at an angle of \(45^\circ\) to the horizontal as shown above. The ball bounces horizontally off the plane at point \(P_1\) with the same speed with which it struck the plane and strikes the plane again at point \(P_2\). In terms of \(g\) and \(h\), determine each of the following quantities:
A disk of radius \( R = 0.5 \) \( \text{cm} \) rests on a flat, horizontal surface such that frictional forces are considered to be negligible. Three forces of unknown magnitude are exerted on the edge of the disk, as shown in the figure. Which of the following lists the essential measuring devices that, when used together, are needed to determine the change in angular momentum of the disk after a known time of \( 5.0 \) \( \text{s} \)?
The figure above shows a uniform beam of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) that hangs horizontally and is attached to a vertical wall. A block of mass \( M \) is suspended from the far end of the beam by a cable. A support cable runs from the wall to the outer edge of the beam. Both cables are of negligible mass. The wall exerts a force \( F_w \) on the left end of the beam. For which of the following actions is the magnitude of the vertical component of \( F_w \) smallest?
A baseball is thrown vertically into the air with a velocity \( v \), and reaches a maximum height \( h \). At what height was the baseball moving with one-half its original velocity? Assume air resistance is negligible.
The figure shows a person’s foot. In that figure, the Achilles tendon exerts a force of magnitude F = 720 N. What is the magnitude of the torque that this force produces about the ankle joint?
The figure shows a truck pulling three crates across a rough road. Which of the following best describes the directions of all the horizontal forces acting on crate 2?
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?
A box of mass \(m\) is initially at rest at the top of a ramp that is at an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal. The block is at a height \(h\) and length \(L\) from the bottom of the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is \(\mu\). What is the kinetic energy of the box at the bottom of the ramp?

An object is moving in a horizontal circle at a constant speed. Which of the following correctly describes the linear and angular velocities of the object between any point along the circular path?
An airplane accelerates down a runway at \( 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). It reaches a final velocity of \( 200 \, \text{m/s} \) until it finally lifts off the ground. Determine the distance traveled before takeoff.
