An object with a mass \(m = 80 \, \text{g}\) is attached to a spring with a force constant \(k = 25 \, \text{N/m}\). The spring is stretched \(52.0 \, \text{cm}\) and released from rest. If it is oscillating on a horizontal frictionless surface, determine the velocity of the mass when it is halfway to the equilibrium position.

A \(2 \, \text{kg}\) model rocket is launched with a thrust force of \(275 \, \text{N}\) and reaches a height of \(90 \, \text{m}\), at which point the thrust cuts out, but the rocket continues moving at \(150 \, \text{m/s}\). What is the average air resistance force acting on the rocket during its ascent?

Pulleys \( X \) and \( Y \) are each attached to a block by a string that wraps around the pulley. Both blocks are released and have the same linear acceleration \( a \). As the blocks fall, the pulleys rotate about their centers. Pulley \( Y \) has a larger radius than Pulley \( X \). How does the angular acceleration \( \alpha_X \) of Pulley \( X \) compare to the angular acceleration \( \alpha_Y \) of Pulley \( Y \)?

MCQ

A group of students must study the oscillatory motion of a pendulum. One end of a light string is attached to the ceiling, and the other end of the string is attached to a mass hanger so that small disks of various masses may be stacked on the hanger.

Students are provided with data in which an experiment was conducted to determine the relationship between the length of the pendulum and the period of oscillation. The data include a pendulum of length 0.5 m, for which it took 81 s for the pendulum bob to oscillate 10 times. However, the experiment was conducted at a location that is not near Earth’s surface. The gravitational field strength where the experiment was conducted is most nearly
