A ski lift carries skiers along a \(695 \, \text{m}\) slope inclined at \(34^\circ\). To lift a single rider, it is necessary to move \(72 \, \text{kg}\) of mass to the top of the lift. Under maximum load conditions, five riders per minute arrive at the top. If \(65\%\) of the energy supplied by the motor goes to overcoming friction, what average power must the motor supply?
A snowboarder starts from rest and slides down a \(32^\circ\) incline that’s \(75 \, \text{m}\) long.
A truck going 15 km/h has a head-on collision with a small car going 30 km/h. Which statement best describes the situation?
Person A throws a ball horizontally from a cliff \( 20 \) \( \text{m} \) tall at \( 12 \) \( \text{m/s} \). Person B is running to the right on the ground and catches the ball at the same height it would’ve landed after running \( 15 \) \( \text{m} \). How fast was Person B running?
Block 2 initially is at rest. Block 1 travels towards block 2 and collides with Block 2 as shown above. Find the final velocities of both blocks assuming the collision is elastic.
A small rock sits at the bottom of a cup filled with water. The upward force exerted by the water on the rock is \( F_0 \). The water is then poured out and replaced by an oil that is \( \frac{3}{4} \) as dense as water, and the rock again sits at the bottom of the cup, completely under the oil. Which of the following expressions correctly represents the magnitude of the upward force exerted by the oil on the rock?
A small block of mass \( M \) is released from rest at the top of the curved frictionless ramp shown above. The block slides down the ramp and is moving with a speed \( 3.5v_0 \) when it collides with a larger block of mass \( 1.5M \) at rest at the bottom of the incline. The larger block moves to the right at a speed \( 2v_0 \) immediately after the collision.
Express your answers to the following questions in terms of the given quantities and fundamental constants.
A \(2\)-N force is used to push a small piston \(10\) \(\text{cm}\) downward in a simple hydraulic machine. If the opposite large piston rises by \(0.5\) \(\text{cm}\), what is the maximum weight the large piston can lift?
An egg dropped on the road usually beaks, while one dropped on the grass usually does not break because for the egg dropped on the grass:
Above is a graph of the \(distance\) vs. time for car moving along a road. According the graph, at which of the following times would the automobile have been accelerating positively?
Three students are pulling on a bag of skittles. Each is pulling with a horizontal force. If student 1 pulls Eastward with [katex]170 \, \text{N}[/katex], student 2 pulls Southward with [katex]100 \, \text{N}[/katex] and student 3 pulls with [katex]200 \, \text{N}[/katex] at an angle of [katex]20^\circ [/katex] west of north, what is the net force caused by the three students on the bag of skittles?
3 clay balls, labeled A, B, and C are launched from the same height at the same speed as shown above. A is launched at \( 30^\circ \) above horizontal, B is launched horizontally, and C is launched \( 30^\circ \) below the horizontal. They all hit the wall (before reaching the ground) in times \( t_A \), \( t_B \), and \( t_C \) respectively. Rank these times from least to greatest.
