A \( 0.20 \) \( \text{kg} \) object moves along a straight line. The net force acting on the object varies with the object’s displacement as shown in the graph above. The object starts from rest at displacement \( x = 0 \) and time \( t = 0 \) and is displaced a distance of \( 20 \) \( \text{m} \). Determine each of the following.
A construction worker spins a square sheet of metal of mass 0.040 kg with an angular acceleration of 10.0 rad/s2 on a vertical spindle (pin). What are the dimensions of the sheet if the net torque on the sheet is 1.00 N·m? Assume that the moment of inertia of a rectangle is \( I = \frac{1}{12}M(a^2+b^2) \)
A uniform copper disk of radius \( R \) has a moment of inertia \( I \) around an axis passing through the center of the disk perpendicular to its plane. If the radius of the disk were only \( \dfrac{R}{2} \), but the thickness were the same, what would be the moment of inertia in terms of \( I \)? Hint: The moment of inertia of a solid disk about its center is \(\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\).

The figure shows a horizontal pipe with sections with different cross-sectional areas. Small tubes extend from the top of each section. The cross-sectional area of the pipe at location C is half that at A, and the areas at A and D are the same. Water flows in the pipe from left to right. Which of the following correctly ranks the height \( h \) of the water in the tubes above the labeled locations?
A sled glides across ice and eventually stops. This stopping is best explained by ____.
A coffee cup on the dashboard of a car slides forward when the driver decelerates from \(45 ~ \frac{\text{km}}{\text{hr}}\) to rest in \(3.5 \, \text{s}\) or less. What is the coefficient of static friction between the cup and the dash? Assume the road and the dashboard are completely horizontal.
A car suddenly stops and a passenger lurches forward. This motion is best explained by Newton’s ____ Law.

The block is moving horizontally at a constant velocity. There are two applied forces on the object as shown in the image. In which direction is the friction force acting on the object?
You are a bungee jumping fanatic and want to be the first bungee jumper on Jupiter. The length of your bungee cord is \( 45.0 \) \( \text{m} \). Free fall acceleration on Jupiter is \( 23.1 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). What is the ratio of your speed on Jupiter to your speed on Earth when you have dropped \( 45 \) \( \text{m} \)? Ignore the effects of air resistance and assume that you start at rest.
A \(350\ \text{g}\) ball is attached to the end of a thin, uniform rod of mass \(500\ \text{g}\) and length \(1.2\ \text{m}\). The system is rotated in a horizontal circle about the opposite end of the rod. Calculate the moment of inertia of the system about the axis of rotation. Hint: the moment of inertia of a thin rod about the end of the rod is \(I = \tfrac{1}{3} m L^2\).
A ball is thrown straight up. At what point does the ball have the most energy?
A solid sphere \( \left( I = \frac{2}{5}MR^2 \right) \) and a solid cylinder \( \left( I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2 \right) \), both uniform and of the same mass and radius, roll without slipping at the same forward speed. It is correct to say that the total kinetic energy of the solid sphere is
A typical \( 68 \text{-kg} \) person generates a steady mechanical power output of \( 120 \text{ W} \) at the pedals of a bicycle. Approximately how many Calories are “burned” (total metabolic energy expended) when the person rides a bicycle for \( 15 \text{ minutes} \)? A typical energy efficiency for the human body is \( 25\% \), which takes into account the release of thermal energy. Note (\( 1 \text{ Cal} = 4186 \text{ J} \)).
A constant force of 8.0 N is exerted on a 16 kg object initially at rest. How much speed will the object gain after 4 seconds?
One ball is dropped vertically from a window. At the same instant, a second ball is thrown horizontally from the same window. Which ball has the greater speed at ground level?
You kick a soccer ball with an initial velocity directed 53° above the horizontal. The ball lands on a roof 7.2 m high. The wall of the building is 25 m away, and it takes the ball 2.1 seconds to pass directly over the wall.
A person sitting in an enclosed train car, moving at constant velocity, throws a ball straight up into the air in her reference frame.
Caleb is filling up water balloons for the Physics Olympics balloon toss competition. Caleb sets a \( 0.50 \text{-kg} \) spherical water balloon on the kitchen table and notices that the bottom of the balloon flattens until the pressure on the bottom is reduced to \( 630 \frac{\text{N}}{\text{m}^2} \). What is the area of the flat spot on the bottom of the balloon?
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:
What is the ratio of the moment of inertia of a cylinder of mass \( m \) and radius \( r \) to the moment of inertia of a hoop of the same mass and same radius?
When is the angular momentum of a system constant?
Water flowing in a horizontal pipe speeds up as it goes from a section with a large diameter to a section with a small diameter. Which of the following can explain why the speed of the water increases?
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 \( v \)?
Wanda watches the fish in her fish tank and notices that the angelfish like to feed at the water’s surface, while the catfish feed \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \) below at the bottom of the tank. If the average density of the water in the tank is \( 1000\) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \), what is the absolute pressure on the catfish?
