Runner A begins a \( 100 \)-meter race at time \( t = 0 \) and runs at a constant speed of \( 6.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \). Runner B starts the same race \( 3 \) seconds later but runs at \( 9.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
If the acceleration of an object is \( 0 \), are no forces acting on it? Explain.
A \( 35 \) \( \text{kg} \) suitcase rests on a luggage‑loading ramp inclined \( 30.0^\circ \) above the horizontal. To keep it from sliding, a baggage‑handler pushes straight into the ramp (perpendicular to the surface) with a force of \( 45 \) \( \text{N} \). Find the coefficient of static friction \( \mu_s \) between the suitcase and the ramp.
A uniform solid sphere of mass M and radius R is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. A massless string is wrapped around the sphere and is pulled with a force F. The string makes an angle of θ with the horizontal. What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the sphere and the surface required for the sphere to start rolling without slipping?
Two ice skaters suddenly push off against one another starting from a stationary position. The \(45 \, \text{kg}\) skater acquires a speed of \(0.375 \, \text{m/s}\) relative to the ice. What speed does the \(60 \, \text{kg}\) skater acquire relative to the ice?
A vehicle is moving at a speed of 12.3 m/s on a decline when the brakes of all four wheels are fully applied, causing them to lock. The slope of the decline forms an angle of 18.0 degrees with the horizontal plane. Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road surface is 0.650.
A simple Atwood’s machine remains motionless when equal masses \(M\) are placed on each end of the chord. When a small mass \(m\) is added to one side, the masses have an acceleration \(a\). What is \(M\)? You may neglect friction and the mass of the cord and pulley.
Two paper cups are suspended by strings and hung near each other. They are separated by about \( 10 \) \( \text{cm} \). Explain what happens to the cups when you blow air between them. Hint: Do they remain still, moves away from each other or move towards each other?
When the speed of a rear-wheel-drive car is increasing on a horizontal road, what is the direction of the frictional force on the tires?

You have a giant cask of water with a spigot some height below the water surface. The surface of the water, which is essentially at rest, is exposed to atmosphere (\( \approx 10^5 \text{Pa} \)). The water density is \( \approx 1000 \text{kg/m}^3 \). The water pours out of the spigot at \( 3 \text{m/s} \). How far below the water surface is the spigot positioned?
A child on Earth has a weight of \(500 \, \text{N}\). Determine the weight of the child if the Earth were to triple in both mass and radius (\(3M\) and \(3r\)).
A crate is pulled 2.5 m at constant velocity along a 25° incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is 0.250. What is the efficiency of this procedure?
Two balls have their centers \( 2.0 \) \( \text{m} \) apart. One ball has a mass of \( 8.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). The other has a mass of \( 6.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). What is the gravitational force between them?
A cube of unknown material and uniform density floats in a container of water with \(60\%\) of its volume submerged. If this same cube were placed in a container of oil with density \(800\) \(\text{kg/m}^3\), what portion of the cube’s volume would be submerged while floating?
An object moves at a constant speed of \( 9.0 \frac{m}{s} \) in a circular path of radius of 1.5 m. What is the angular acceleration of the object?
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.

In which of these cases is the rate of change of the particle’s displacement constant?
An object with a mass \(m = 80 \, \text{g}\) is attached to a spring with a force constant \(k = 25 \, \text{N/m}\). The spring is stretched \(52.0 \, \text{cm}\) and released from rest. If it is oscillating on a horizontal frictionless surface, determine the velocity of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position.
One end of a string is wrapped around a pulley that is free to rotate with negligible friction about an axle at its center. The other end of the string is attached to a block. The block is released from rest and moves downward with constant acceleration. Which of the following correctly indicates whether the amount of work done on the pulley by the string during each successive complete rotation remains constant or increases, and provides a valid justification?
An ice skater that is spinning in circles has an initial rotational inertia \(I_i\). You can approximate her shape to be a cylinder. She is spinning with velocity \(\omega_i\). As she extends her arms, her rotational inertia changes by a factor of \(x\) and her angular velocity changes by a factor of \(y\). Which one of the following options best describe \(x\) and \(y\)?
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 \( t_B \)?
When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth’s surface of \( 3.00 \) times the Earth’s radius, what is its acceleration due to the Earth’s gravitation?
A proton (mp = 1.67 x10-27 kg) is being accelerated along a straight line at 3.6 ×1015 m/s2 in a machine. The proton has an initial speed of 2.4 x107 m/s and travels 3.5 cm.
A 135.0 N force is applied to a 30.0 kg box at 42 degree angle to the horizontal. If the force of friction is 85.0, what is the net force and acceleration? If the object starts from rest, how far has it traveled in 3.3 sec?
