An isolated spherical star of radius \( R_o \), rotates about an axis that passes through its center with an angular velocity of \( \omega_o \). Gravitational forces within the star cause the star’s radius to collapse and decrease to a value \( r_o < R_o \), but the mass of the star remains constant. A graph of the star’s angular velocity as a function of time as it collapses is shown. Which of the following predictions is correct about the angular momentum \( L \) of the star immediately after the collapse?

The graph shows the acceleration as a function of time for an object that is at rest at time \( t = 0 \) \( \text{s} \). The distance traveled by the object between \( 0 \) and \( 2 \) \( \text{s} \) is most nearly
The graph above shows velocity as a function of time for an object moving along a straight line. For which of the following sections of the graph is the acceleration constant and nonzero?
Two spherical objects have equal masses and experience a gravitational force of \( 25 \) \( \text{N} \) towards one another. Their centers are \( 36 \) \( \text{cm} \) apart. Determine each of their masses.
A person shoots a basketball with a speed of \( 12 \, \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 35^\circ \) above the horizontal. If the person is \( 2.4 \, \text{m} \) tall and the hoop is \( 3.05 \, \text{m} \) above the ground, how far back must the person stand in order to make the shot?
A \( 25.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of \( 75.0 \) \( \text{N} \) is required to set the block in motion, after which a horizontal force of \( 60.0 \) \( \text{N} \) is required to keep the block moving with constant speed.
An Olympic bobsled team goes through a horizontal curve at a speed of \( 120 \) \( \text{km/hr} \). If the radius of curvature is \( 10.0 \) \( \text{m} \), what is the apparent weight the crew experiences—express in terms of \( mg \)?
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?
An apple is released from rest \(500 \, \text{m}\) above the ground. Due to the combined forces of air resistance and gravity, it has a speed of \(40 \, \text{m/s}\) when it reaches the ground. What percentage of the initial mechanical energy of the apple–Earth system was dissipated due to air resistance? Take the potential energy of the apple–Earth system to be zero when the apple reaches the ground.
Two masses, \( m_y = 32 \) \( \text{kg} \) and \( m_z = 38 \) \( \text{kg} \), are connected by a rope that hangs over a pulley. The pulley is a uniform cylinder of radius \( R = 0.311 \) \( \text{m} \) and mass \( 3.1 \) \( \text{kg} \). Initially, \( m_y \) is on the ground and \( m_z \) rests \( 2.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
A student kicks a soccer ball. The ball exerts a force back on the student’s foot. Why doesn’t the student’s foot accelerate backward as much as the ball accelerates forward?
A student places a wooden block of mass \( m \) in a container of water. The block floats with half of its volume above the surface of the water. The student then begins to stack small objects on top of the block until the wooden block is completely submerged but none of the objects stacked on top are submerged. What is the buoyant force acting on the block now?

The figure shows a truck pulling three crates across a rough road. Which of the following best describes the directions of all the horizontal forces acting on crate 2?
A box of mass \( 20 \) \( \text{kg} \) moves to the right on a horizontal frictionless surface with a speed of \( 4.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \). The box collides with and remains attached to one end of a spring of negligible mass whose other end is fixed to a wall. After the collision, the spring compresses a maximum distance of \( 0.50 \) \( \text{m} \), and the box then oscillates back and forth.

A fluid flows through the two sections of cylindrical pipe shown in the figure. The narrow section of the pipe has radius \( R \) and the wide section has radius \( 2R \). What is the ratio of the fluid’s speed in the wide section of pipe to its speed in the narrow section of pipe, \( \dfrac{v_{\text{wide}}}{v_{\text{narrow}}} \)?
