A runner is moving at \( 4 \) \( \text{m/s} \). She is opposed by magic in the form of air resistance, which exerts a constant \( 20 \) \( \text{Newtons} \) force in the direction opposite her velocity. At what rate is she using energy to remain at constant velocity?
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 additional distance will be covered in the third second?
A trash compactor pushes down with a force of \( 500 \) \( \text{N} \) on a \( 3 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \) input piston, causing a force of \( 30,000 \) \( \text{N} \) to crush the trash. What is the area of the output piston that crushes the trash?
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 \( I = \frac{1}{12}M(a^2+b^2) \)
An astronaut initially at rest in space throws a wrench, and recoils in the opposite direction. Select all that is true.
A speed skater goes around a turn that has a radius of \(31 \, \text{m}\). The skater has a speed of \(14 \, \text{m/s}\) and experiences a centripetal force of \(460 \, \text{N}\). What is the mass of the skater?
A driver is driving at \( 40 \, \text{m/s} \) when the light turns red in front of her. It takes the driver \( 0.9 \, \text{s} \) to react and hit the brakes. After this, the car slows with an acceleration of \( 3.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). What is the total distance traveled by the car?
If the coefficient of static friction is \( \mu_s = 0.5 \), how much force must be applied to a spring (spring constant of \( 0.8 \) \( \text{N/m} \)) which is attached to a block of wood (mass \( 4.0 \) \( \text{kg} \)) in order to just begin to move the block?
A friend is balancing a fork on one finger. Which of the following are correct explanations of how he accomplishes this? Select two answers.
Two balls are launched at the same time from opposite sides of a \( 100 \) \( \text{m} \) wide and \(1000 ~\text{m}\) canyon. Ball A is launched at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at \( 45^{\circ} \) from the left side. Ball B is launched at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at \( 45^{\circ} \) from the right side.
At what distance from the Earth will a spacecraft traveling directly from the Earth to the Moon experience zero net force because the Earth and Moon pull in opposite directions with equal force?
A \( 200 \)\( \text{ lb} \) block is resting on a \( 30^{\circ} \) incline. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is \( \mu_s = 0.8 \). Will the block remain at rest?
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?
A ball is thrown horizontally from the roof of a building \( 7.5 \) \( \text{m} \) tall and lands \( 9.5 \) \( \text{m} \) from the base. What was the ball’s initial speed?
Two blocks are on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block \( A \) is moving with an initial velocity of \( v_0 \) toward block \( B \), which is stationary. The two blocks collide, stick together, and move off with a velocity of \( \frac{v_0}{3} \). Which block, if either, has the greater mass?
A traffic light hangs from a pole as shown in the diagram. The uniform aluminum pole AB is of length \( 7.20 \) \( \text{m} \) and has a mass of \( 12.0 \) \( \text{kg} \). The mass of the traffic light is \( 21.5 \) \( \text{kg} \). The point C is located \( 3.80 \) \( \text{m} \) vertically above the pivot A. A massless horizontal cable CD is attached at C and connects to the pole at point D, where the pole makes an angle of \( 37^{\circ} \) with the cable.
The angular velocity of an electric motor is \(\omega = \left(20 – \frac{1}{2} t^2 \right) \, \text{rad/s}\), where \(t\) is in seconds.
A karate master is about to split a piece of wood with her hand. Select all she must do in order to deliver the maximum force to split the wood.
In lacrosse, a typical throw is made by rotating the stick through an angle of roughly \(90^\circ\), then releasing the ball when the stick is vertical, as shown above. If the \(1 \, \text{meter}\) long stick is at rest when horizontal and the ball leaves the stick with a velocity of \(10 \, \text{m/s}\), what angular acceleration must the stick experience?
A ball is dropped from the top of a tall building. At the same instant, a second ball is thrown upward from the ground level. When the two balls pass one another, one on the way up, the other on the way down, compare the magnitudes of their acceleration:
An object is moving at constant velocity. Which of the following could be the free-body diagram representing the forces acting on the object?
A projectile has the least speed at what point in its path?
The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of \( 5.0 \) \( \text{rev/s} \) in \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \). At this point, the person doing the laundry opens the lid, and a safety switch turns off the washer. The tub slows to rest in \( 12.0 \) \( \text{s} \). Through how many revolutions does the tub turn during the entire \( 20 \)-s interval? Assume constant angular acceleration while it is starting and stopping.
A rocket explodes into two fragments, one \(25\) times heavier than the other. The change in momentum of the lighter fragment is
