Two identical metal balls are being held side by side at the top of a ramp. Alex lets one ball, \( A \), start rolling down the hill. A few seconds later, Alex’s partner, Bob, starts the second ball, \( B \), down the hill by giving it a push. Ball \( B \) rolls down an identical, parallel path to the first ball and passes it. At the instant ball \( B \) passes ball \( A \) (select all that apply):
When a skier skis down a hill, the normal force exerted on the skier by the hill is
The driver of a car traveling at \( 30.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) applies the brakes and undergoes a constant negative acceleration of \( 2.00 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). How many revolutions does each tire make before the car comes to a stop, assuming that the car does not skid and that the tires have radii of \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \)?
A car is safely negotiating an unbanked circular turn at a speed of 21 m/s. The road is dry, and the maximum static frictional force acts on the tires. Suddenly a wet patch in the road decreases the maximum static frictional force to one-third its dry road value. If the car is to continue safely around the curve, to what speed must the driver slow the car?
A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at \(4.0 \, \text{m/s}^2\) for \(5.0 \, \text{s}\). It next maintains the velocity it has reached for \(10 \, \text{s}\). Then it slows down at a steady rate of \(2.0 \, \text{m/s}^2\) for \(4.0 \, \text{s}\). What is the final speed of the car?
Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diameter \(8.0 \, \text{m}\). The room is spinning horizontally about an axis through its center at a rate of \(45 \, \text{rev/min}\) when the floor drops so that it no longer provides any support for the riders. What is the minimum coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rider required so that the rider does not slide down the wall?
A solid plastic cube with uniform density (side length = \(0.5\) \(\text{m}\)) of mass \(100\) \(\text{kg}\) is placed in a vat of fluid whose density is \(1200\) \(\text{kg/m}^3\). What fraction of the cube’s volume floats above the surface of the fluid?
A ball is kicked at a speed of \( v_0 \) at an angle \( \theta \) above the horizontal. The ball travels 25 meters horizontally. If the ball is kicked at \( 2v_0 \), what will the horizontal displacement be?
The maximum acceleration a pilot can withstand without blacking out is about \( 7.0 \) \( g \). In an endurance test for a jet plane’s pilot, what is the maximum speed he can tolerate if he is spun in a horizontal circle of diameter \( 85 \) \( \text{m} \)?
Which pair of graphs represents the same 1-dimensional motion?
Find the following three values using just rotational kinematics.
Late one morning, a mosquito collides with the windshield of a speeding truck. The force of the truck on the mosquito is ____ the force of the mosquito on the truck; the resulting acceleration of the mosquito is ____ the acceleration of the truck.

Two blocks, A and B, are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley. Block A, of mass \( 10 \) \( \text{kg} \), rests on a rough plane that makes an angle of \( 45^{\circ} \) with the horizontal, while block B, of mass \( 17 \) \( \text{kg} \), hangs vertically. Starting from rest, what is the minimum coefficient of static friction between block A and the plane required to keep the system in static equilibrium?

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
An object travels along a path shown above, with changing velocity as indicated by vectors \( A \) and \( B \). Which vector best represents the net acceleration of the object from time \( t_A \) to \( t_B \)?
A pump is used to send water through a hose, the diameter of which is \( 10 \) times that of the nozzle through which the water exits. If the nozzle is \( 1 \) \(\text{m}\) higher than the pump, and the water flows through the hose at \( 0.4 \) \(\text{m/s}\), what is the difference in pressure between the pump and the atmosphere?
An egg dropped on the road usually beaks, while one dropped on the grass usually does not break because for the egg dropped on the grass:
You drive \( 4 \) \( \text{km} \) at \( 30 \) \( \text{km/h} \) and then another \( 4 \) \( \text{km} \) at \( 50 \) \( \text{km/h} \). What is your average speed for the whole \( 8 \) \( \text{km} \) trip?

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 coffee cup on the dashboard of a car slides forward when the driver decelerates from \(45 ~ \frac{\text{km}}{\text{hr}}\) to rest in \(3.5 \, \text{s}\) or less. What is the coefficient of static friction between the cup and the dash? Assume the road and the dashboard are completely horizontal.
Find the net gravitational force on a \(2.0 \, \text{kg}\) sphere midway between a \(4.0 \, \text{kg}\) sphere and a \(7.0 \, \text{kg}\) sphere that are \(1.2 \, \text{m}\) apart.
An elevator starts at rest on the ground floor. It accelerates upward smoothly for \( 2 \) \( \text{s} \) until reaching a steady upward speed. It continues at that constant speed for \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \) before gently slowing to rest at the next floor in \( 3 \) \( \text{s} \). Draw the velocity vs. time graph.

A uniform rod of mass \( M_0 \) and length \( L \) is free to rotate about a pivot at its left end and is released from rest when the rod is \( 30^{\circ} \) below the horizontal, as shown in the figure. With respect to the pivot, the rod has rotational inertia \( I_0 = \dfrac{1}{3} M_0 L^2 \). Which of the following expressions correctly represents the magnitude of the net torque exerted on the rod about the pivot at the moment the rod is released?
A \(5.0 \, \text{g}\) coin is placed \(15 \, \text{cm}\) from the center of a turntable. The coin has coefficients of static and kinetic friction of \(\mu_s = 0.80\) and \(\mu_k = 0.50\). The turntable slowly speeds up to \(60 \, \text{rpm}\). Does the coin slide off the turntable?
