If I weigh \( 741 \) \( \text{N} \) on Earth at a place where \( g = 9.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \) and \( 5320 \) \( \text{N} \) on the surface of another planet, what is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?
A car of mass \( M \) moves around a circularly banked curve on a freeway off-ramp. The off-ramp has a radius of curvature \( R \) and is raised to an angle \( \theta \) from the horizontal. The road is slick, and friction is negligible.
Three students are pulling on a bag of skittles. Each is pulling with a horizontal force. If student 1 pulls Eastward with \(170 \, \text{N}\), student 2 pulls Southward with \(100 \, \text{N}\) and student 3 pulls with \(200 \, \text{N}\) at an angle of \(20^\circ\) west of north, what is the net force caused by the three students on the bag of skittles?
Which of the following best explains why astronauts experience weightlessness while orbiting the earth?
A force \(F\) is used to hold a block of mass \(m\) on an incline as shown in the diagram above. The plane makes an angle of \(\theta\) with the horizontal and \(F\) is perpendicular to the plane. The coefficient of friction between the plane and the block is \(\mu\). What is the minimum force \(F\) necessary to keep the block at rest?
A person is making homemade ice cream. She exerts a force of magnitude \(23 \, \text{N}\) on the free end of the crank handle on the ice-cream maker, and this end moves on a circular path of radius \(0.25 \, \text{m}\). The force is always applied parallel to the motion of the handle. If the handle is turned once every \(1.7 \, \text{s}\), what is the average power being expended?
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 the hill along a line parallel to the path of the first ball and passes it. At the instant ball \( B \) passes ball \( A \):
A car is going through a dip in the road whose curvature approximates a circle of radius \( 200 \) \( \text{m} \). At what velocity will the occupants of the car appear to weigh \( 20\% \) more than their normal weight \( (1.2\,W) \)?
A loop-de-loop roller coaster has a radius of \( 30 \) \( \text{m} \). Determine the apparent weight a \( 500 \) \( \text{N} \) person will feel at the bottom of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) and at the top of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
A boy of mass \( m \) and a girl of mass \( 2m \) are initially at rest at the center of a frozen pond. They push each other so that she slides to the left at speed \( v \) across the frictionless ice surface and he slides to the right. What is the total work done by the children?
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?
An object is thrown upward at \( 65 \, \text{m/s} \) from the top of a \( 800 \, \text{m} \) tall building.
Above is the graph of an object’s velocity as a function of time. Which of the following is true about the motion?
The distance from earth to sun is \(1 \, \text{AU}\). The distance from Saturn to sun is \(9 \, \text{AU}\). Find the period of Saturn’s orbit in years. You can assume that the orbits are circular.
An \(80 \, \text{kg}\) person sits on a swing ride that moves in a horizontal circle. The swing is suspended by a chain of length \(8 \, \text{m}\). While in motion, the chain makes a \(40^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. What is the speed of the person?
Two racing boats set out from the same dock and speed away at the same constant speed of 101 km/h for half an hour (0.5 hr). Boat 1 is headed 27.6° south of west, and Boat 2 is headed 35.3° south of west, as shown in the graph above. During this half-hour calculate:
The drawing above shows a spherical reservoir that contains \( 455,000 \) \( \text{kg} \) of water when full. The reservoir is vented to the atmosphere at the top. Assuming the reservoir is full and the diameter of the reservoir is much larger than any of the pipes on the ground.
You are piloting a small plane, and you want to reach an airport \(450 \, \text{km}\) due south in \(3.0 \,\text{hours}\). A wind is blowing from the west at \(50.0 \,\text{km/h}\). What heading and airspeed should you choose to reach your destination in time?
A \( 200 \)\( \text{ lb} \) block is resting on a \( 30^{\circ} \) incline. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is \( \mu_s = 0.8 \). Will the block remain at rest?
A Christmas ornament made from a thin hollow glass sphere hangs from a thin wire of negligible mass. It is observed to oscillates with a frequency of \( 2.50 \) \( \text{Hz} \) in a city where \( g = 9.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). What is the radius of the ornament? The moment of inertia of the ornament is given by \( I = \frac{5}{3} mr^2 \).
An elevator carrying a person of mass \( m \) is moving upward and slowing down. How does the magnitude \( F \) of the force exerted on the person by the elevator floor compare with the magnitude \( mg \) of the gravitational force?
Can an object’s average velocity equal zero when object’s speed is greater than zero? Explain using the formula for average velocity vs speed.
An object of unknown mass is acted upon by multiple forces:
The coefficients of friction are \(\mu_s = 0.6\) and \(\mu_k = 0.2\). Starting from rest, the object travels \(10 \, \text{m}\) in \(4.5 \, \text{s}\). What is the mass of the unknown object?
