MCQ

Three identical reservoirs, \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\), are represented above, each with a small pipe where water exits horizontally. The pipes are set at the same height above a pool of water. The water in the reservoirs is kept at the levels shown. Which of the following correctly ranks the horizontal distances \( d \) that the streams of water travel before hitting the surface of the pool?

MCQ

A horizontal tube with two vertical T-branches (A and B) is partially submerged in a liquid, with the open ends of the branches exposed to the air. However, the section of the tube above point B is hidden from view and may either be wider or narrower than the section above A.

Air is blown through the horizontal tube, causing the liquid levels in the vertical branches to rise as shown. Based on the observed water levels, which of the following best describes the characteristics of the hidden section of the tube above B?

A projectile is launched at an upward angle of \( 30^\circ \) to the horizontal with a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How does the horizontal component of its velocity \( 1.0 \) \( ext{s} \) after launch compare with its horizontal component of velocity \( 2.0 \) \( ext{s} \) after launch, ignoring air resistance?

A rubber ball and a piece of clay have equal masses. They are dropped from the same height on horizontal steel platform. The ball bounces back with nearly the same speed with which it hit. The clay sticks to the platform. Choose all that is true about the ball/platform and the clay/platform systems.

Wagon Wheel Structure Moment of Inertia Wheel Mass Wheel Radius
Wagon \(A\) Solid disk \[\frac{1}{2} M R^2\] \[ 0.5 \, \text{kg} \] \[ 0.1 \, \text{m} \]
Wagon \(B\) Solid disk \[\frac{1}{2} M R^2\] \[ 0.2 \, \text{kg} \] \[ 0.1 \, \text{m} \]
Wagon \(C\) Hollow hoop \[M R^2\] \[ 0.1 \, \text{kg} \] \[ 0.1 \, \text{m} \]

Three wagons have identical total mass (including their wheels) and each has four wheels. However, the wheels on each wagon have different designs with varying mass distributions and radii as shown in a reference chart. When accelerating each wagon from a standstill to \( 10 \) \( \text{m/s} \), which wagon requires the most energy input?
