A \(2\)-N force is used to push a small piston \(10\) \(\text{cm}\) downward in a simple hydraulic machine. If the opposite large piston rises by \(0.5\) \(\text{cm}\), what is the maximum weight the large piston can lift?
A 2.00 x102 g block on a 50.0 cm long string swings in a circle on a horizontal, frictionless table at 75.0 rpm. What is the speed of block? What is the tension in the string?
An object is moving in a horizontal circle at a constant speed. Which of the following correctly describes the linear and angular velocities of the object between any point along the circular path?
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 rotating merry-go-round makes one complete revolution in 4.0 s. What is the linear speed and acceleration of a child seated 1.2 m from the center?
A projectile is launched at angle \( \theta \) to the horizontal, with velocity \( v \), maximum vertical displacement \( s \), and angle \( \theta \) between \( 0^{\circ} \) and \( 45^{\circ} \). What will the maximum vertical displacement be if the projectile is now launched at an angle of \( 2 \theta \) from the horizontal with velocity \( v \)?
A uniform ladder with mass \( m_2 \) and length \( L \) rests against a smooth wall. A do-it-yourself enthusiast of mass \( m_1 \) stands on the ladder a distance \( d \) from the bottom (measured along the ladder). The ladder makes an angle \( \theta \) with the ground. There is no friction between the wall and the ladder, but there is a frictional force of magnitude \( f \) between the floor and the ladder. \( N_1 \) is the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the wall on the ladder, and \( N_2 \) is the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the ground on the ladder. Throughout the problem, consider counterclockwise torques to be positive.
A solid sphere \( I = 0.06 \, \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) spins freely around an axis through its center at an angular speed of \( 20 \, \text{rad/s} \). It is desired to bring the sphere to rest by applying a friction force of magnitude \( 2.0 \, \text{N} \) to the sphere’s outer surface, a distance of \( 0.30 \, \text{m} \) from the sphere’s center. How much time will it take the sphere to come to rest?
Two particles of equal mass \( m_0 \) are moving with equal speeds \( v_0 \) along paths inclined at \( 60^\circ \) to the \( x \)-axis, as shown above. They collide and stick together in a perfectly inelastic collision. Their velocity after the collision has magnitude:
The figure above shows a uniform beam of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) that hangs horizontally and is attached to a vertical wall. A block of mass \( M \) is suspended from the far end of the beam by a cable. A support cable runs from the wall to the outer edge of the beam. Both cables are of negligible mass. The wall exerts a force \( F_w \) on the left end of the beam. For which of the following actions is the magnitude of the vertical component of \( F_w \) smallest?
An elevator carrying a person of mass \( m \) is moving upward and slowing down. How does the magnitude \( F \) of the force exerted on the person by the elevator floor compare with the magnitude \( mg \) of the gravitational force?
The Earth’s radius is \(6.37 \times 10^{6} \, \text{m}\). What is the radius of a planet that has the same mass as Earth but on which the free-fall acceleration is \(5.50 \, \text{m/s}^2\)?
If a constant net torque is applied to an object it will (select all that applies):
Two spheres of equal size and equal mass are rotated with an equal amount of torque. One of the spheres is solid with its mass evenly distributed throughout its volume, and the other is hollow with all of its mass concentrated at the edges. Which sphere would rotate faster if the same amount of torque is applied for the same period of time for both?
Describe two examples in which the force of friction exerted on an object is in the direction of motion of the object.
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.
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?
Suppose you place a ball in the middle of a wagon, and then accelerate the wagon forward. Describe the motion of the ball relative to the ground. Describe its motion relative to the wagon.
Two people, one of mass \( 88 \) \( \text{kg} \) and the other of mass \( 55 \) \( \text{kg} \), sit in a rowboat of mass \( 70 \) \( \text{kg} \). With the boat initially at rest, the two people, who have been sitting at opposite ends of the boat \( 3.1 \) \( \text{m} \) apart from each other, now exchange seats.
The elliptical orbit of a comet is shown above. Positions 1 and 2 are, respectively, the farthest and nearest positions to the Sun, and at position 1 the distance from the comet to the Sun is 10 times that at position 2. What is the ratio \(v_1\)/\(v_2\) of the speed of the comet at position 1 to the speed at position 2?
A \(30 \, \text{g}\) bullet is fired with a speed of \(500 \, \text{m/s}\) into a wall.
Which statements are not valid for a projectile? Take up as positive.
A horizontal, uniform board of weight \( 125 \, \text{N} \) and length \( 4 \, \text{m} \) is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing \( 500 \, \text{N} \) is hanging from the board. The tension in the right chain is \( 250 \, \text{N} \).
A satellite in circular orbit around the Earth moves at constant speed. This orbit is maintained by the force of gravity between the Earth and the satellite, yet no work is done on the satellite. How is this possible?
