Two blocks of ice, one five times as heavy as the other, are at rest on a frozen lake. A person then pushes each block the same distance \(d\). Ignore friction and assume that an equal force \(F\) is exerted on each block. Which of the following statements is true about the kinetic energy of the heavier block after the push?
A Corvette is traveling at a constant velocity \( 30 \, \text{m/s} \) when it passes a stationary supped up Civic. At that moment, the Civic puts the pedal to the floor and accelerates at \( 6 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). The Civic eventually catches up to the Corvette.
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

A wheel of radius \( R \) and negligible mass is mounted on a horizontal frictionless axle so that the wheel is in a vertical plane. Three small objects having masses \( m \), \( M \), and \( 2M \), respectively, are mounted on the rim of the wheel, as shown above. If the system is in static equilibrium, what is the value of \( m \) in terms of \( M \)?
How long does it take for a rotating object to speed up from 15.0 rad/s to 33.3 rad/s if it has a uniform angular acceleration of 3.45 rad/s2?
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 \( I = \frac{5}{3} mr^2 \).
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.
A wheel 31 cm in diameter accelerates uniformly from 240rpm to 360rpm in 6.8 s. How far will a point on the edge of the wheel have traveled in this time?
A net force of \( 8.0 \) \( \text{N} \) accelerates a \( 4.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) body from rest to a speed of \( 5.0 \) \( \text{m s}^{-1} \). Which of the following is equal to the work done by the force?
A group of astronauts in a spaceship are attempting to land on Mars. As they approach the planet, they begin to plan their descent to the surface.

A horizontal tube with two vertical T-branches (A and B) is partially submerged in a liquid, with the open ends of the branches exposed to the air. However, the section of the tube above point B is hidden from view and may either be wider or narrower than the section above A.
Air is blown through the horizontal tube, causing the liquid levels in the vertical branches to rise as shown. Based on the observed water levels, which of the following best describes the characteristics of the hidden section of the tube above B?
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?
An airliner arrives at the terminal, and the engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angular velocity of \( 2000 \) \( \text{rad/s} \). The engine’s rotation slows with an angular acceleration of magnitude \( 80.0 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \).

Are astronauts really “weightless” while in orbit?
If an object is moving, is it possible for the net force acting on it to be zero? Explain.
At time \( t = 0 \), a disk starts from rest and begins spinning about its center with a constant angular acceleration of magnitude \( \alpha \). At time \( t_f \), the disk has angular speed \( \omega_f \). Which of the following expressions correctly compares the final angular displacement \( \theta_f \) of the disk at time \( t_f \) to the angular displacement \( \theta_{1/2} \) at time \( \frac{t_f}{2} \)?
A car moves at constant speed in a circle of radius 75 m on a horizontal road. The coefficient of static friction is 0.62. Find the maximum speed the car can go without sliding.
A sphere of mass \(0.5\) \(\text{kg}\) is dropped into a column of oil. At the instant the sphere becomes completely submerged in the oil, the sphere is moving downward at \(8\) \(\text{m/s}\), the buoyancy force on the sphere is \(4.0\) \(\text{N}\), and the fluid frictional force is \(4.0\) \(\text{N}\). Which of the following describes the motion of the sphere at this instant?
Toy car W travels across a horizontal surface with an acceleration of \( a_w \) after starting from rest. Toy car Z travels across the same surface toward car W with an acceleration of \( a_z \), after starting from rest. Car W is separated from car Z by a distance \( d \). Which of the following pairs of equations could be used to determine the location on the horizontal surface where the two cars will meet, and why?
A tennis ball is thrown straight up with an initial speed of \( 22.5 \, \text{m/s} \). It is caught at the same distance above ground.
Which of the following must be zero if an object is spinning at a constant rate? There may be more than one right answer.
