MCQ

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?

An object is suspended from a spring scale first in air, then in water, as shown in the figure above. The spring scale reading in air is \( 17.8 \) \( \text{N} \), and the spring scale reading when the object is completely submerged in water is \( 16.2 \) \( \text{N} \). The density of water is \( 1000 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \).

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 \(81 \, \text{kg}\) student dives off a \(45 \, \text{m}\) tall bridge with an \(18 \, \text{m}\) long bungee cord tied to his feet and to the bridge. You can consider the bungee cord to be a flexible spring. What spring constant must the bungee cord have for the student’s lowest point to be \(2.0 \, \text{m}\) above the water?
