A ball of mass \( 0.5 \, \text{kg} \), initially at rest, is kicked directly toward a fence from a point \( 32 \, \text{m} \) away, as shown above. The velocity of the ball as it leaves the kicker’s foot is \( 20 \, \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 37^\circ \) above the horizontal. The top of the fence is \( 2.5 \, \text{m} \) high. The ball hits nothing while in flight and air resistance is negligible.
On a distant planet, golf is just as popular as it is on Earth. A golfer tees off and drives the ball \(3.5\) times as far as he would have on Earth, given the same initial velocities on both planets. The ball is launched at a speed of \(45 \, \text{m/s}\) at an angle of \(29^\circ\) above the horizontal. When the ball lands, it is at the same level as the tee. On the distant planet find:
A bird, traveling at \(50 \, \text{m/s}\) wants to hit a man \(100 \, \text{m}\) below with a dropping. How far in distance before flying directly over the man should the bird release it?
When a box is about to slide but hasn’t moved yet, which friction is acting?
Two objects (49.0 and 24.0 kg) are connected by a massless string that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley. The pulley hangs from the ceiling. Find the acceleration of the objects and the tension in the string.
A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5 seconds for a distance of 100 m. Determine the acceleration of the car.
A block of mass \( 4.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) rests on an inclined plane. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane \( \mu_s \) is \( 0.4 \). Which of the following gives the angle of inclination at which the block will start to slide?

The motion of a particle is described in the velocity vs. time graph shown above. Over the nine-second interval shown, we can say that the speed of the particle…
The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder about its axis is given by \( I = \frac{1}{2}mR^2 \). If this cylinder rolls without slipping, the ratio of its rotational kinetic energy to its translational kinetic energy is
A \(4 \, \text{kg}\) mass is traveling at \(10 \, \text{m/s}\) to the right when it collides elastically with a stationary \(7 \, \text{kg}\) mass. The \(7 \, \text{kg}\) mass then travels at \(2 \, \text{m/s}\) at an angle of \(22^\circ\) below the horizontal. What is the velocity of the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) mass?
A projectile is launched at an upward angle of \( 30^\circ \) to the horizontal with a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How does the horizontal component of its velocity \( 1.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch compare with its horizontal component of velocity \( 2.0 \) \( \text{s} \) after launch, ignoring air resistance?
The Moon does not crash into the Earth because:
A skateboarder, with an initial speed of \( 20.0 \, \text{m/s} \), rolls to the end of friction-free incline of length \( 25 \, \text{m} \). At what angle is the incline oriented above the horizontal?
Two uniform disks have the same radius but different masses: disk \( 1 \) has a mass \( M \), disk \( 2 \) has a mass \( 2M \). What is the ratio of the moment of inertia of the first disk to the second disk?
Two masses \(m_1\) and \(4m_1\) are on an incline. Both surfaces have the same coefficient of kinetic friction. Both objects start from rest at the same height. Which mass has the largest speed at the bottom?

An arrow is shot horizontally from a distance of \( 20 \, \text{m} \) away. It lands \( 0.05 \, \text{m} \) below the center of the target. If air resistance is negligible, what was the initial speed of the arrow?

The \( 70 \) \( \text{kg} \) student in the figure balances a \( 1200 \) \( \text{kg} \) elephant on a hydraulic lift. Assume that it is filled with oil, which is incompressible and has a density \( \rho = 900 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). What is the diameter of the piston the student is standing on? Assume each piston has a cylindrical shape, i.e., a circular cross-sectional area. Note: The two pistons are at the same height. Also, the diameter of the wider piston is given in the figure to be \( 2.0 \) \( \text{m} \).
A 6.0-cm-diameter gear rotates with angular velocity \( \omega = \left(20-\frac {1}{2} t^2 \right) \, \text {rad/s} \), where \(t\) is in seconds. At \(t = 4.0 \, \text{s}\), what are
An old record player could bring a disk up to its \(45\) RPM speed in less than a second. If the same size disk can also be brought up to a speed of \(75\) RPM in about the same amount of time on another player. Compare the torques exerted by each record player.
When the speed of a rear-drive car is increasing on a horizontal road, what is the direction of the frictional force on the tires?

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?

A meter stick with a uniformly distributed mass of \(0.5 \, \text{kg}\) is supported by a pivot placed at the \(0.25 \, \text{m}\) mark from the left. At the left end, a small object of mass \(1.0 \, \text{kg}\) is placed at the zero mark, and a second small object of mass \(0.5 \, \text{kg}\) is placed at the \(0.5 \, \text{m}\) mark. The meter stick is supported so that it remains horizontal, and then it is released from rest. Find the change in the angular momentum of the meter stick, one second after it is released.
A uniform ladder of length \(L\) and weight \(W = 50 \, \text{N}\) rests against a smooth vertical wall. If the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is \(\mu = 0.4\).
