A projectile is launched at angle \( \theta \) to the horizontal, with velocity \( v \), maximum vertical displacement \( s \), and angle \( \theta \) between \( 0^{\circ} \) and \( 45^{\circ} \). What will the maximum vertical displacement be if the projectile is now launched at an angle of \( 2 \theta \) from the horizontal with velocity \( v \)?
A solid sphere of mass \( 1.5 \, \text{kg} \) and radius \( 15 \, \text{cm} \) rolls without slipping down a \( 35^\circ\) incline that is \( 7 \, \text{m} \) long. Assume it started from rest. The moment of inertia of a sphere is \( I= \frac{2}{5}MR^2 \).
Two balls are dropped off a cliff, 3 seconds apart. The first ball dropped is twice as heavy as the second ball dropped. Air resistance is negligible. While both balls are falling, the distance between the two balls is
Consider a solid uniform sphere of radius \(R\) and mass \(M\) rolling without slipping. Which form of its kinetic energy is larger, translational or rotational?
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.
A solid titanium sphere of radius \( 0.35 \) \( \text{m} \) has a density \( 4500 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). It is held suspended completely underwater by a cable. What is the tension in the cable?

A platform is initially rotating on smooth ice with negligible friction, as shown above. A stationary disk is dropped directly onto the center of the platform. A short time later, the disk and platform rotate together at the same angular velocity, as shown at right in the figure. How does the angular momentum of only the platform change, if at all, after the disk drops? And what is the best justification.
A mechanic pushes a \(2500 \, \text{kg}\) car from rest to a final speed \(v\) by doing \(5.0 \times 10^3 \, \text{J}\) of work on the car. Frictional effect between the car and the ground are negligible. What is the final speed of the car?
A red car, initially at rest, travels east with an acceleration of \( 3.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). At the same time as the red car starts to move, a blue car is traveling west at \( 15 \, \text{m/s} \) and accelerating at \( 1.2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). If they are \( 600 \, \text{m} \) apart the moment the red car starts to move and they are traveling towards each other, where and when will they meet?

An adult exerts a horizontal force on a swing that is suspended by a rope of length \( L \), holding it at an angle \( \theta \) with the vertical. The child in the swing has a weight \( W \) and dimensions that are negligible. In terms of \( W \) and \( \theta \), determine:
Two uniform disks have the same mass but different radii: disk \( 1 \) has a radius \( R \) and disk \( 2 \) has a radius \( 2R \). What is the ratio of the moment of inertia of the first disk to the second disk?
A sphere of mass \( M \) and radius \( r \), and rotational inertia \( I \) is released from the top of an inclined plane of height \( h \). The surface has considerable friction. Using only the variables mentioned, derive an expression for the sphere’s center of mass velocity.

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?

Three forces of equal magnitude are applied to a \(3 \, \text{m} \times 2 \, \text{m}\) rectangle. Force \(F_1\) and \(F_2\) act at \(45^\circ\) angles to the vertical as shown, while \(F_3\) acts horizontally.
In short:
\(F_1\): applied at \((0, -2)\), direction SW \(45^\circ\)
\(F_2\): applied at \((2, -2)\), direction NW \(45^\circ\)
\(F_3\): applied at \((3, -1)\), direction east
Points of rotation: \(A = (0, 0)\), \(B = (0, -1)\), \(C = (1, -1)\)
A golfer hits a shot to a green that is elevated \(2.80 \, \text{m}\) above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of \(18.9 \, \text{m/s}\) at an angle of \(52.0^\circ\) above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands.
A speed skater goes around a turn that has a radius of \(31 \, \text{m}\). The skater has a speed of \(14 \, \text{m/s}\) and experiences a centripetal force of \(460 \, \text{N}\). What is the mass of the skater?
In \(3.0 \, \text{minutes}\), a ski lift raises \(10\) skiers at constant speed to a height of \(85 \, \text{m}\). The ski lift is \(55^\circ\) above the horizontal and the average mass of each skier is \(67.5 \, \text{kg}\). What is the average power provided by the tension in the cable pulling the lift?
A rollercoaster leaves the station at rest. Its speed increases steadily for \( 6 \) \( \text{s} \) as it heads down the first drop. The ride then levels out and it moves at a constant speed for \( 4 \) \( \text{s} \) before hitting the brakes and stopping in \( 3 \) \( \text{s} \). Draw the velocity vs. time graph or explain it in terms of functions.
How does the speed \(v_1\) of a block \(m\) reaching the bottom of slide 1 compare with \(v_2\), the speed of a block \(2m\) reaching the end of slide 2? The blocks are released from the same height.
The Earth’s radius is \(6.37 \times 10^{6} \, \text{m}\). What is the radius of a planet that has the same mass as Earth but on which the free-fall acceleration is \(5.50 \, \text{m/s}^2\)?
Marc’s favorite ride at Busch Gardens is the Flying Umbrella, which is lifted by a hydraulic jack. The operator activates the ride by applying a force of \( 72 \) \( \text{N} \) to a \( 30 \)\( \text{cm}^2 \) cylindrical piston, which holds the \( 20,000 \)\( \text{N} \) ride off the ground. What is the area of the piston that holds the ride?

A ball of mass \( m \) is suspended from two strings of unequal length as shown above. The magnitudes of the tensions \( T_1 \) and \( T_2 \) in the strings must satisfy which of the following relations?
It takes \(4 \, \text{s}\) for an individual to push a \(70 \, \text{kg}\) box up a \(5 \, \text{m}\) long, \(12^\circ\) ramp. The box starts from rest and achieves a speed of \(2.5 \, \text{m/s}\) at the top. Friction does \(350 \, \text{J}\) of work during its ascent. Calculate the power output of the individual pushing the box.
You kick a ball straight up. Compare the sign of the work done by gravity on the ball while it goes up with the sign of the work done by gravity while it goes down.
