Two identical satellites are placed in orbit of two different planets. Satellite \(A\) orbits Mars, and Satellite \(B\) orbits Jupiter. The orbital speeds of each satellite are the same. Which satellite has a greater orbital radius?
Marc’s favorite ride at Busch Gardens is the Flying Umbrella, which is lifted by a hydraulic jack. The operator activates the ride by applying a force of \( 72 \) \( \text{N} \) to a \( 30 \)\( \text{cm}^2 \) cylindrical piston, which holds the \( 20,000 \)\( \text{N} \) ride off the ground. What is the area of the piston that holds the ride?
An object has a mass of 10 kg. For each case below answer the questions and provide an example.
The gravitational force that the Moon exerts on Earth is often cited as the source of the tides we witness. However, the gravitational force the Sun exerts on Earth is over \(100\) times greater than the force the Moon exerts on Earth.
Why is the force from the Moon credited for the tides, and not the force from the Sun?
An astronaut initially at rest in space throws a wrench, and recoils in the opposite direction. Select all that is true.
An ice skater performs a pirouette (a fast spin) by pulling in his outstretched arms close to his body. What happens to his angular momentum about the axis of rotation?
You throw a rock straight up with an initial velocity of \( 5.0 \, \text{m/s} \).
A person shoots a basketball with a speed of \( 12 \, \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 35^\circ \) above the horizontal. If the person is \( 2.4 \, \text{m} \) tall and the hoop is \( 3.05 \, \text{m} \) above the ground, how far back must the person stand in order to make the shot?
An \(80 \, \text{kg}\) person sits on a swing ride that moves in a horizontal circle. The swing is suspended by a chain of length \(8 \, \text{m}\). While in motion, the chain makes a \(40^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. What is the speed of the person?

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.
A wheel of moment of inertia of \( 5.00 \) \( \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) starts from rest and accelerates under a constant torque of \( 3.00 \) \( \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) for \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \). What is the wheel’s rotational kinetic energy at the end of \( 8.0 \) \( \text{s} \)?
