In an experiment, an external torque is applied to the edge of a disk of radius \( 0.5 \) \( \text{m} \) such that the edge of the disk speeds up as it continues to rotate. The tangential speed as a function of time is shown for the edge of the disk. The rotational inertia of the disk is \( 0.125 \) \( \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \). Can a student use the graph and the known information to calculate the net torque exerted on the edge of the disk?
A pulley system consists of two blocks of mass \( 5 \) \( \text{kg} \) and \( 10 \) \( \text{kg} \), connected by a rope of negligible mass that passes over a pulley of radius \( 0.1 \) \( \text{m} \) and mass \( 2 \) \( \text{kg} \). The pulley is free to rotate about its axis. The system is released from rest, and the block of mass \( 10 \) \( \text{kg} \) starts to move downwards. Assume the pulley has a frictional force of \(5.7\) Newtons acting on the outer edge of the pulley.
From the top of a \( 74.0 \) \( \text{m} \) high building, a \( 1.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) ball is dropped in the presence of air resistance. The ball reaches the ground with a speed of \( 31.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \), indicating that drag was significant. How much energy was lost in the form of air resistance/drag during the fall?
A motorcycle has tires with a diameter of \( 44.0 \) \( \text{cm} \). Cruising down the highway, they are rotating at \( 1150 \) \( \text{rpm} \) (revolutions per minute).
A \(0.5 \, \text{kg}\) cart, on a frictionless \(2 \, \text{m}\) long table, is being pulled by a \(0.1 \, \text{kg}\) mass connected by a string and hanging over a pulley. The system is released from rest. After the hanging mass falls \(0.5 \, \text{m}\), calculate the speed of the cart on the table. Use ONLY forces and energy.
A 0.5 kg pendulum bob is raised to 1.0 m above the floor, as shown in the figure. The bob is then released from rest. When the bob is 0.8 m above the floor, its speed is most nearly
A cube of side length \( s \) rests on the bottom surface of a container of fluid. The fluid is at a height \( y \) above the bottom of the tank. The fluid has density \( \rho \) and the atmospheric pressure is \( P_{\text{atm}} \).
Which of the following expressions is equal to the absolute pressure exerted by the fluid on the top surface of the cube?
A boat is rowed directly upriver at a speed of \(2.5 \, \text{m/s}\) relative to the water. Viewers on the shore find that it is moving at only \(0.5 \, \text{m/s}\) relative to the shore. What is the speed of the river? Is it moving with or against the boat?
A 100-pound rock and a 1-pound metal arrow pointed downwards are dropped from height \( h \). Assuming there is no air resistance, which one hits the ground first and why?
A child whirls a ball in a vertical circle. Assuming the speed of the ball is constant (an approximation), when would the tension in the cord connected to the ball be greatest?
A \(2 \, \text{kg}\) model rocket is launched with a thrust force of \(275 \, \text{N}\) and reaches a height of \(90 \, \text{m}\), at which point the thrust cuts out, but the rocket continues moving at \(150 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the average air resistance force acting on the rocket during its ascent?
What force would have to be applied to start a \(12.3 \, \text{kg}\) wood block moving on a surface with a static coefficient of friction of \(0.438\)?
At what distance from the Earth will a spacecraft traveling directly from the Earth to the Moon experience zero net force because the Earth and Moon pull in opposite directions with equal force?
An object has a mass of 10 kg. For each case below answer the questions and provide an example.
A \( 1.0 \, \text{kg} \) lump of clay is sliding to the right on a frictionless surface with a speed of \( 2 \, \text{m/s} \). It collides head-on and sticks to a \( 0.5 \, \text{kg} \) metal sphere that is sliding to the left with a speed of \( 4 \, \text{m/s} \). What is the kinetic energy of the combined objects after the collision?
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.
Which of the following best explains why astronauts experience weightlessness while orbiting the earth?
A group of students must study the oscillatory motion of a pendulum. One end of a light string is attached to the ceiling, and the other end of the string is attached to a mass hanger so that small disks of various masses may be stacked on the hanger.
Students are provided with data in which an experiment was conducted to determine the relationship between the length of the pendulum and the period of oscillation. The data include a pendulum of length 0.5 m, for which it took 81 s for the pendulum bob to oscillate 10 times. However, the experiment was conducted at a location that is not near Earth’s surface. The gravitational field strength where the experiment was conducted is most nearly
A javelin thrower standing at rest holds the center of the javelin behind her head, then accelerates it through a distance of \( 70 \, \text{cm} \) as she throws. She releases the \( 600 \, \text{g} \) javelin \( 2.0 \, \text{m} \) above the ground traveling at an angle of \( 30^\circ \) above the horizontal. In this throw, the javelin hits the ground \( 54 \, \text{m} \) away. Find the following:
The displacement \( x \) of an object moving in one dimension is shown above as a function of time \( t \). The acceleration of this object must be
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 \( 9.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
While Santa was delivering presents to the children of Nashville, Tennessee he experienced a strong wind perpendicular to his motion.
A moderate force will break an egg. However, an egg dropped on the road usually breaks, while one dropped on the grass usually does not break because for the egg dropped on the grass:
