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?
An ice skater performs a pirouette (a fast spin) by pulling in his outstretched arms close to his body. What happens to his angular momentum about the axis of rotation?
A \( 1.5 \) \( \text{kg} \) block is pushed to the right with just enough force to get it to move. The block is pushed for five seconds with this constant force, then the force is released and the block slides to a stop. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is \( 0.300 \) and the coefficient of static friction is \( 0.400 \), calculate the amount of time that passes from when the force is applied to when the block stops.
Two students start \( 100 \) \( \text{m} \) apart.
• Student A walks to the right at \( 2 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
• Student B walks to the left at \( 3 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
At what time do the students meet, and how far has each student walked when they collide?
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?
The two blocks of masses \( M \) and \( 2M \) travel at the same speed \( v \) but in opposite directions. They collide and stick together. How much mechanical energy is lost to other forms of energy during the collision?
Which of the following do not affect the maximum speed that a car can drive in a circle? Choose all correct answers.
A disk, a hoop, and a solid sphere are released at the same time at the top of an inclined plane. They are all uniform and roll without slipping. In what order do they reach the bottom?
\( \text{Solid sphere: } I = \frac{2}{5}mR^2, \quad \text{Solid disk: } I = \frac{1}{2}mR^2, \quad \text{Hoop: } I = mR^2 \)
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?
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 \( t_B \)? Vector A points north east and B points north west.
A neighbor’s child wants to go to a carnival to experience the wild rides. The neighbor is worried about safety because one of the rides looks particularly dangerous. She knows that you have taken physics and so asks you for advice. The ride in question has a \(4 \, \text{kg}\) chair which hangs freely from a \(10 \, \text{m}\) long chain attached to a pivot on the top of a tall tower. When the child enters the ride, the chain is hanging straight down. The child is then attached to the chair with a seat belt and shoulder harness. When the ride starts up, the chain rotates about the tower. Soon the chain reaches its maximum speed and remains rotating at that speed, which corresponds to one rotation about the tower every \(3 \, \text{seconds}\). When you ask the operator, he says the ride is perfectly safe. He demonstrates this by sitting in the stationary chair. The chain creaks but holds, and he weighs \(90 \, \text{kg}\).
Can an object have \( 0 \) velocity and nonzero acceleration at the same time? Give two examples.
What is the net torque acting on the pivot supporting a \(10 \, \text{kilogram}\) beam \(2 \, \text{meters}\) long as shown above? Assume that the positive direction is clockwise.
A super dart of mass \(20 \, \text{g}\), traveling at \(350 \, \text{m/s}\), strikes a steel plate at an angle of \(30^\circ\) with the plane of the plate, as shown in the figure. It bounces off the plate at the same angle but at a speed of \(320 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the magnitude of the impulse that the plate gives to the bullet?
Two satellites are in circular orbits around Earth. Satellite A has speed \(v_A\). Satellite B has an orbital radius nine times that of satellite A. What is the speed of satellite B?
An object can move upward while having a downward acceleration.
An airplane can safely bank when subjected to a centripetal acceleration of 8 g’s. If the airplane flies at a constant speed of 400 m/s, how long does it take to make a 180° turn?
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?
The diagram above shows a hydraulic chamber with a spring \( (k_s = 1250 \, \text{N/m}) \) attached to the input piston and a rock of mass \( 55.2 \, \text{kg} \) resting on the output plunger. The input piston and output plunger are at about the same height, and each has negligible mass. The chamber is filled with water.
The box is sitting on the floor of an elevator. The elevator is accelerating upward. The magnitude of the normal force on the box is
A rock is thrown at an angle of \( 42^\circ \) above the horizontal at a speed of \( 14 \, \text{m/s} \). Determine how long it takes the rock to hit the ground.
Two racing boats set out from the same dock and speed away at the same constant speed of \(101 \, \text{km/h}\) for half an hour (\(0.5 \, \text{hr}\)). Boat 1 is headed \(27.6^\circ\) south of west, and Boat 2 is headed \(35.3^\circ\) south of west, as shown in the graph above. During this half-hour calculate:
A spring launches a \(4 \, \text{kg}\) block across a frictionless horizontal surface. The block then ascends a \(30^\circ\) incline with a kinetic friction coefficient of \(\mu_k = 0.25\), stopping after \(55 \, \text{m}\) on the incline. If the spring constant is \(800 \, \text{N/m}\), find the initial compression of the spring. Disregard friction while in contact with the spring.
A horizontal spring with spring constant 162 N/m is compressed 50 cm and used to launch a 3 kg box across a frictionless, horizontal surface. After the box travels some distance, the surface becomes rough. The coefficient of kinetic friction of the box on the rough surface is 0.2. Find the total distance the box travels before stopping.
