A drinking fountain projects water at an initial angle of \( 50^ \circ \) above the horizontal, and the water reaches a maximum height of \( 0.150 \) \( \text{m} \) above the point of exit. Assume air resistance is negligible.
A cannon fires a cannonball forward. The recoil of the cannon is backward. Why doesn’t the cannon move backward as fast as the cannonball moves forward?
An object undergoes constant acceleration. Starting from rest, the object travels \( 5 \, \text{m} \) in the first second. Then it travels \( 15 \, \text{m} \) in the next second. What total distance will be covered after the 3rd second?
A diver springs upward from a diving board. At the instant she contacts the water, her speed is \( 8.90 \, \text{m/s} \), and her body is extended at an angle of \( 75.0^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal surface of the water. At this instant, her vertical displacement is \( -3.00 \, \text{m} \), where downward is the negative direction. Determine her initial velocity, both magnitude and direction.

Find the tension in each cable supporting the gymnast who weighs \( 600 \) \( \text{N} \). The gymnast is at rest, holding a junction point where two cables are attached: one cable is horizontal, and the second cable is attached to the ceiling making an angle of \( 37^{\circ} \) above the horizontal, as shown in the diagram.
| Experiment | Initial Velocity of Cart X \( (\text{m/s}) \) | Initial Velocity of Cart Y \( (\text{m/s}) \) | Final Velocity of Cart X \( (\text{m/s}) \) | Final Velocity of Cart Y \( (\text{m/s}) \) |

| \( 3 \) | \( 2 \) | \( 1 \) | \( 1 \) | \( 2 \) |
A student performs several experiments in which two carts collide as they travel along a horizontal surface. Cart X and Cart Y both have a mass of \( 1 \) \( \text{kg} \). Data collected from the three experiments are shown in the table above. During which experiment does the center of mass of the system of two carts have the greatest change in its momentum?
Two points, A and B, are on a disk that rotates about an axis. Point A is \( 3 \) times as far from the axis as point B. If the speed of point B is \( v \), then what is the speed of point A?

Using only work and energy, find the velocity of the masses after they have traveled \(0.8 \, \text{m}\). Refer to the image above.
An object in simple harmonic motion obeys the following position versus time equation: \( y = (0.50 \text{ m}) \sin \left( \frac{\pi}{2} t \right) \). What is the amplitude of vibration?
While Santa was delivering presents to the children of Nashville, Tennessee he experienced a strong wind perpendicular to his motion.
A person is standing at the edge of the water and looking out at the ocean. The height of the person’s eyes above the water is \( h = 1.8 \, \text{m} \), and the radius of the Earth is \( R = 6.38 \times 10^6 \, \text{m} \). How far is it to the horizon (in meters)? In other words, find the distance \( d \) from the person’s eyes to the horizon. Note at the horizon, the angle between the line of sight and the radius of the Earth is \( 90^\circ \).)
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 system of two wheels fixed to each other is free to rotate about a frictionless axis through the common center of the wheels and perpendicular to the page. Four forces are exerted tangentially to the rims of the wheels, as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the net torque on the system about the axis is

Four forces are exerted on a disk of radius \( R \) that is free to spin about its center, as shown above. The magnitudes are proportional to the length of the force vectors, where \( F_1 = F_4 \), \( F_2 = F_3 \), and \( F_1 = 2F_2 \). Which two forces combine to exert zero net torque on the disk?
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 sled glides across ice and eventually stops. This stopping is best explained by ____.
A block starts from rest at the top of a \(50^\circ\) incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is \(0.4\). If the block reaches a velocity of \(7 \, \text{m/s}\) at the bottom of the incline, what is the length of the incline?
A mechanic pushes a \(2500 \, \text{kg}\) car from rest to a final speed \(v\) by doing \(5.0 \times 10^3 \, \text{J}\) of work on the car. Frictional effect between the car and the ground are negligible. What is the final speed of the car?
The experimental diving rig is lowered from rest at the ocean’s surface and reaches a maximum depth of \(80\) \(\text{m}\). Initially it accelerates downward at a rate of \(0.10\) \(\text{m/s}^2\) until it reaches a speed of \(2.0\) \(\text{m/s}\), which then remains constant. During the descent, the pressure inside the bell remains constant at \(1\) atmosphere. The top of the bell has a cross-sectional area \(A = 9.0\) \(\text{m}^2\). The density of seawater is \(1025\) \(\text{kg/m}^3\).
Two identical arrows, one with \( 2 \) times the speed of the other, are fired into a bale of hay. Assuming the hay exerts a constant “frictional” force on the arrows, the faster arrow will penetrate how much farther than the slower arrow?
A crate is pulled 2.5 m at constant velocity along a 25° incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is 0.250. What is the efficiency of this procedure?
Which launch angle gives the greatest horizontal range, assuming level ground and no air resistance?
