2 Par 1: Basic ieas of unis, conversions, an vecors. Problem 1.1: (1p) Wha sysem of unis is use in his course? Wha are he basic unis of mass, lengh, an ime of ha sysem? Inernaional Sysem (SI), Kilogram, meer, secons. Problem 1.: Joule, erg an ev are unis of energy efine as: 1 J (Joule) = 1 Kg m /s 1 erg (erg) = 1 gram cm /s 1 ev (elecron- Vol) = erg Quesion 1..1: (p) Express 1 erg in unis of Joules. 1erg =1 gcm =1 Kg m s s Kgm = 1 *1 *1 s =1 7 J Quesion 1..: (p) The LHC acceleraor in Swizerlan acceleraes proons o he worl s larges energy of 3.5x1 1 ev. Express ha energy in Joules ev = erg = erg = J = J Problem 1.3: The following plo shows he posiion x as a funcion of ime Quesion 1.3.1: (5p) For each ime range A,B,C I, fill he able below wriing in each cell wheher he velociy an acceleraion are <, >, or =. A B C D E F G H I egion Velociy Acceleraion A = = B > > C > = D > < x[cm] E < < F < = G < > H = = [s] I > > Quesion 1.3.: (p) Is he magniue of he velociy greaer in region C han i is in F? Why? The magniue of he velociy a a given ime is he magniue of he slope of he angen line in he above graph a ha given ime. The slope a ime range C is abou + squares/ squares, wih a magniue of +1. The slope a ime range F is abou -4 squares/ squares wih a magniue of -. Hence, he answer is NO; he magniue of he velociy a region C is smaller han ha a region F.

3 Par : A car epars from res uner a consan acceleraion of 1 m/s moving in a sraigh line. Afer ravelling some isance i passes firs a ancing club an secons laer a gas saion. The isance beween he ancing club an he gas saion is 4meers. Quesion.1.1: (6p) In he space below raw a schemaic iagram of he problem an wrie any associae imes. In aiion choose an raw a coorinae sysem an clearly inicae is origin. 4 m = C C+ s Origin Club Gas saion Quesion.1.: (4p) Wrie he equaions of moion of he acceleraing car accoring o your coorinae sysem. () = 1m s Quesion.1.3: (6p) Fin he ime i ook he car o ravel from he original poin of eparure o he club. (Hin: use he fac ha you know he isance an he ime beween he Club an he gas saion) 1m s ( c + s) 1m s C = 1m s 4s + 1m s C s = 4m C = 4m C = ms m =1s ( c + s) X( C ) = 4m m + m s Quesion.1.4: (4p) Fin he isance beween he ancing club an he original poin from where he car epare. ( c ) = 1m s C = 1m s 1s = 5m 3

4 Par 3: Acceleraion in boh componens. Problem 3.1: A car is fie wih a rocke propulsion engine ha provies he car wih a consan acceleraion in he horizonal irecion. As epice below he car mus jump of a 1m high brige an lan on a flabe ruck moving wih a consan velociy of m/s. A he momen he car leaves he brige he ruck is a a isance of 15m from he brige an he car has an iniial velociy of m/s. Ignore he heigh of he flabe, air resisance an any mass loss ue o he rocke. The following quesions mus be answere in he form of a number wih proper unis. Y 1m X 15m Quesion 3.1.1: (3p) Choose an raw your coorinae sysem on he figure above an associae imes o he ifferen evens. Quesion 3.1.: (5p) Wrie he posiion of he car an he ruck as a funcion of ime For he ruck : () =15m + m s Y T () = For he car : X C () = m s + a x Y C () =1m g Quesion 3.1.3: (5p) Fin he ime a which he car lans on he ruck. Y C ( L ) =1m g L = L = m g =1.43 s Quesion 3.1.4: (7p) Fin he minimum horizonal acceleraion ha he rocke propulsion engine in he car nees o give he car so i can successfully lan on he ruck. X C ( L ) = ( L ) replacing we ge m s L + a x L =15m + m s L a x = 3m L = g 3m m = 14.7 m s 4

5 Par 4: A more complex problem. Problem 4.1: A ball is ie up o a ro of raius connece o a moor ha makes i spin in he verical plane wih a uniform moion once every TA secons. A secon similar evice is locae a a isance an roaing in opposie irecion wih perio TB as shown in he picure below. Graviy is presen an he cener of boh evices is locae a isance h wih respec o he groun. All answers mus be expresse in erms of known parameers. TA Quesion 4.1.1: (p) Fin he raio of he spees of he balls in heir movemen aroun heir respecive circles. Quesion 4.1.: (p) Fin he raio of he magniue of he acceleraion of he balls in heir movemen aroun heir respecive circles. In general, wha is he irecion of he acceleraion? a A a B h Y = VA = v A v B = T B The acceleraion vecor of he balls poin owars he cener of heir respecive circles. X g VB = h Quesion 4.1.3: (7p) When boh balls are simulaneously a heir maximum heighs he balls break free of heir respecive ros an sar moving agains each oher. Fin he ime i akes he balls o collie assuming he heigh h is big enough. TB v A v B = " " T B = T B. X A ( c ) = X B ( c ) v A c = v B c c = = v A + v B π T B T c = A T B π T B + ( ) Quesion 4.1.4: (4p) In your coorinae sysem fin he horizonal posiion a which boh balls collie. X A ( c ) = π c = π T B ( ) = T B π T B + ( + T B ) Quesion 4.1.5: (5p) Fin he minimum verical isance h necessary for he balls o collie in he air. The verical posiion where he paricles collie is given by YA(c) Since I pu my coorinae sysem a he cener of he circle which is from where h is measure i follows h=- YA(c) h = Y A ( c ) = + g C = + g T B π T B + ( ) 5

6 Formula shee: Vecors: A = A xˆ i + A yˆ j + Azˆ k A = A x + A y + A z an( ϕ) = A y,where ϕ = angle beween x ˆ axis an projecion of vecor A o he (ˆ x y ˆ ) plane. A x In - D, ϕ = angle beween x ˆ axis an vecor A. Mahemaical Formulae: a + b + c = = -b ± b 4ac a If x = a n x = na n -1. a If x = a n x( ) = n +1 n +1 n +1 ( 1 ) The following equaions are always rue: v = r a = v r ( ) = r + v ( ) = v + v x = x a x = v x v ( ) x a ( ) v x ( ) = x + v x ( ) v av -x = (x - x ) 1 ( - 1 ), a av -x = (v - v ) x 1x ( - 1 ) ( ) = v x + a x ( ) The following apply for consan acceleraion: r = r + v o + 1 v = v + a v x v x ( ) = v x + a x Δx ( ) Δx = v + v x x Oher Equaions: a ra = v = 4π T v P/A = v P/B + v B/A a x = x + v x + 1 a x ( ) = v x + a x 6
