When the speed of a rear-wheel-drive car is increasing on a horizontal road, what is the direction of the frictional force on the tires?
An ideal fluid flows through a pipe with radius \( Q \) and flow speed \( V \). If the pipe splits up into three separate paths, each with radius \( \frac{Q}{2} \), what is the flow speed through each of the paths?
An elevator of height \(h\) ascends with constant acceleration \(a\). When it crosses a platform, it has acquired a velocity \(u\). At this instant a bolt drops from the top of the elevator. Find the time for the bolt to hit the floor of the elevator. Give your answer in terms of \(h\), \(a\), and any constant.
A \(5.0 \, \text{g}\) coin is placed \(15 \, \text{cm}\) from the center of a turntable. The coin has coefficients of static and kinetic friction of \(\mu_s = 0.80\) and \(\mu_k = 0.50\). The turntable slowly speeds up to \(60 \, \text{rpm}\). Does the coin slide off the turntable?
Two identical solid disks, each of mass \( M \) and radius \( R \), are welded together so that they touch at exactly one point on their rims. Determine the moment of inertia of the combined object about an axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the disks and passes through their point of contact. Hint: The moment of inertia of a solid disk about its center is \(\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\).
Police officers have measured the length of a car’s tire skid marks to be \( 23 \, \text{m} \). This particular car is known to decelerate at a constant \( 7.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). What was the car’s initial velocity?
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?
For linear motion the term “inertia” refers to the same physical concept of
A golf club exerts an average horizontal force of \(1000 \, \text{N}\) on a \(0.045 \, \text{kg}\) golf ball that is initially at rest on the tee. The club is in contact with the ball for \(1.8 \, \text{milliseconds}\). What is the speed of the golf ball just as it leaves the tee?
A forward horizontal force of \(12 \, \text{N}\) is used to pull a \(240 \, \text{N}\) crate at constant velocity across a horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction is
If an elephant were chasing you, its enormous mass would be most threatening. But if you zigzagged, its mass would be to your advantage. Why?
A rock is dropped from the top of a tall tower. Half a second later another rock, twice as massive as the first, is dropped. Ignoring air resistance what is the correct choice?
Suppose an object is accelerated by a force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \). Suddenly a second force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \) in the opposite direction is exerted on the object, so that the forces cancel. The object
A ball of mass \( m \) is fastened to a string. The ball swings at constant speed in a vertical circle of radius \( R \) with the other end of the string held fixed. Neglecting air resistance, what is the difference between the string’s tension at the bottom of the circle and at the top of the circle?
A ski tow carries people to the top of a nearby mountain. It operates on a slope of angle \( 15.7^\circ \) of length \( 260 \) \( \text{m} \). The rope moves at a speed of \( 13.0 \) \( \text{km/h} \) and provides power for \( 54 \) riders at one time, with an average mass per rider of \( 67.0 \) \( \text{kg} \).
A grinding wheel is in the form of a uniform solid disk of radius \( 7.00 \) \( \text{cm} \) and mass \( 2.00 \) \( \text{kg} \). It starts from rest and accelerates uniformly under the action of the constant torque of \( 0.600 \) \( \text{N m} \) that the motor exerts on the wheel.
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.
A small boat coasts at constant speed under a bridge. A heavy sack of sand is dropped from the bridge onto the boat. The speed of the boat will
If a small motor does 520 J of work to move a toy car 260 meters in a time of 37 seconds.
A car with speed \( v \) and an identical car with speed \( 3v \) both travel the same circular section of an unbanked (flat) road. If the frictional force required to keep the faster car on the road without skidding is \( F \), then the frictional force required to keep the slower car on the road without skidding is
A stone is thrown horizontally at \(8.0 \, \text{m/s}\) from a cliff \(80 \,\text{m}\) high. How far from the base of the cliff will the stone strike the ground?
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?

Five forces act on a rod that is free to pivot at point \( P \), as shown in the figure. Which of these forces is producing a counter-clockwise torque about point \( P \)?
