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?
A toy car moves off the edge of a table that is \(1.25 \, \text{m}\) high. If the car lands \(0.40 \,\text{m}\) from the base of the table…
In a 4.0-kilometer race, a runner completes the first kilometer in 5.9 minutes, the second kilometer in 6.2 minutes, the third kilometer in 6.3 minutes, and the final kilometer in 6.0 minutes. What is the average speed of the runner? Use standard units: m/s.
A helium-filled balloon is attached by a string of negligible mass to a small \(0.015 \ \text{kg}\) object that is just heavy enough to keep the balloon from rising. The total mass of the balloon, including the helium, is \(0.0050 \ \text{kg}\). The density of air is \(\rho_{\text{air}} = 1.29 \ \text{kg/m}^3\), and the density of helium is \(\rho_{\text{He}} = 0.179 \ \text{kg/m}^3\). The buoyant force on the \(0.015 \ \text{kg}\) object is small enough to be negligible.
A mechanical wheel initially at rest on the floor begins rolling forward with an angular acceleration of \( 2\pi \, \text{rad/s}^2 \). If the wheel has a radius of \( 2 \, \text{m} \), what distance does the wheel travel in \( 3 \) seconds?
A typical \( 68 \)\(-\text{kg} \) person can maintain a steady energy expenditure of \( 480 \) \( \text{W} \) on a bicycle. Approximately how many Calories are “burned” when the person rides a bicycle for \( 15 \) minutes? A typical energy efficiency for the human body is \( 25\% \), which takes into account the release of thermal energy.
A rotating, rigid body makes 10 complete revolutions in 10 seconds. What is its average angular velocity?
What is the net torque acting on the pivot supporting a 10-kilogram beam 2 meters long as shown above? Assume that the positive direction is clockwise.
A point \( P \) is subjected to three simultaneous forces of magnitudes \( F_A > F_B > F_C \). Point \( P \) is in equilibrium. Which of the following statements is not always true about the magnitudes of the forces?
Water flows from point \( A \) to points \( D \) and \( E \) as shown. Some of the flow parameters are known, as shown in the table. Determine the unknown parameters. Note the diagram above does not show the relative diameters of each section of the pipe.
| Section | Diameter | Flow Rate | Velocity |
|---|---|---|---|
| \( \text{AB} \) | \( 300 \) \( \text{mm} \) | \(\textbf{?}\) | \(\textbf{?}\) |
| \( \text{BC} \) | \( 600 \) \( \text{mm} \) | \(\textbf{?}\) | \( 1.2 \) \( \text{m/s} \) |
| \( \text{CD} \) | \(\textbf{?}\) | \( Q_{CD} = 2Q_{CE} \) \( \text{m}^3/\text{s} \) | \( 1.4 \) \( \text{m/s} \) |
| \( \text{CE} \) | \( 150 \) \( \text{mm} \) | \( Q_{CE} = 0.5Q_{CD} \) \( \text{m}^3/\text{s} \) | \(\textbf{?}\) |
A red car, initially at rest, travels east with an acceleration of \( 3.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). At the same time as the red car starts to move, a blue car is traveling west at \( 15 \, \text{m/s} \) and accelerating at \( 1.2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). If they are \( 600 \, \text{m} \) apart the moment the red car starts to move and they are traveling towards each other, where and when will they meet?
A golf ball is hit with a golf club. While the ball flies through the air, which forces act on the ball? Neglect air resistance.
