Tipler PSE points A bullet of mass kg moving at 550 m/s impacts a large fixed block of wood travels 6.8 cm before coming to rest. Assuming that the acceleration of the bullet is constant, find the force exerted by the wood on the bullet. Correct answer: kn. Let : m kg, v o 550 m/s, x 6.8 cm m. The deceleration of the bullet is constant, so v v o + a x 0 a v v o x v o x. Apply F m a to express the force exerted on the bullet by the wood: F wood ma mv o x (0.004 kg)(550 m/s) (0.068 m) kn. 1 kn 1000 N Jumping From the Fire points A person of mass 73.4 kg escapes from a burning building by jumping from a window situated 39.4 m above a catching net. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s. If air resistance exerts a force of 106. N on him as he falls, determine his speed just before he hits the net. Correct answer: m/s. The forces acting on him are the gravitational force mg acting downward, the air resistance, F a, acting upward. The acceleration is downward the net force is F net ma mg F a a mg F a m The person is in free fall, so his final speed is defined by v f a h (mg Fa ) h m [(73.4 kg)(9.8 m/s ) 106.

The second one is filled with iron. The third one is filled with water. The last one is filled with feathers. Shake the boxes. Which one offers the greatest resistance which one offers the smallest resistance? 1. iron, water. s, water 3. iron, feathers correct 4. feathers, iron 5. All are wrong. Among these three materials, iron has the largest density feathers have the smallest density. So the box filled with iron has largest mass offers greatest resistance while the box filled with feathers has the smallest mass offers the smallest resistance. Conceptual 04 Q points Two 30 N forces a 60 N force act on a hanging box as shown. 30 N 30 N 3. No; it is balanced. 4. Yes; upward. The horizontal components of the two 30 N forces cancel, leaving an upward force that is less than 60 N. Thus, the net force on the box is down, causing it to accelerate downward. Conceptual 05 Q points The Earth exerts an 760 N gravitational force on a man. What force does the man exert on the Earth? Correct answer: 760 N. By Newton s third law, the man exerts an equal but opposite force on the Earth. Hewitt CP9 05 E points Consider a stone at rest on the ground. There are two interactions that involve the stone.

Unable to determine without the angle.. Yes; downward. correct 5. between the Earth air If the action is the stone pushing down on the ground surface, the reaction is the ground pushing up on the stone. This upward force on the stone is called the normal force. Force Motion 15 0 (part 1 of ) 10.0 points

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s..88 m 3.98 kg 4 Find the acceleration of the block. Correct answer: m/s. Given : m 3.98 kg θ 4. Consider the free body diagram for the block mg sin θ Basic Concepts: N N mg cos θ W mg F x,net F cos θ W 0 W mg sin θ ma Motion has a constant acceleration. Recall the kinematics of motion with constant acceleration. Solution: Because the block slides down along the plane of the ramp, it seems logical to choose the x-axis in this direction. Then the y-axis must emerge perpendicular to the ramp, as shown. Let us now examine the forces in the x- direction. Only the weight has a component along that axis. So, by Newton s second law, Fx ma mg sin θ Thus a g sin θ With our particular value of θ, a (9.8 m/s ) sin m/s 030 (part of 3) 10.0 points What is the block s speed when, starting from rest, it has traveled a distance of.88 m along the incline. Correct answer: m/s. Since v 0 0, a m/s L.88 m, v f v 0 + a (x x 0 ) ( m/s ) (.88 m) v f m/s. It is very important to note at this point that neither of these values depended on the mass of the block. This may seem odd at first, but recall what Galileo discovered 300 years ago objects of differing mass fall at the same rate. 031 (part 3 of 3) 10.0 points What is the magnitude of the perpendicular force that the block exerts on the surface of the plane at a distance of.88 m down the incline?

It has a(n) 16 kg mass on the left a(n) 7.6 kg mass on the right, both hanging freely. Initially their center of masses are a vertical distance 1. m apart. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s. m g m1 g Since the larger mass will move down the smaller mass up, we can take motion downward as positive for m motion upward as positive for m 1.

Centripetal Acceleration points A car rounds a curve while maintaining a constant speed. Is there a net force on the car as it rounds the curve? 1. It depends on the sharpness of the curve speed of the car.

11 Version PREVIEW Semester 1 Review Slade () 11. No its speed is constant. 3. Yes. correct Acceleration is a change in the speed /or direction of an object. Thus, because its direction has changed, the car has accelerated a force must have been exerted on it. Horizontal Circle points A 3.08 kg mass attached to a light string rotates on a horizontal, frictionless table. The radius of the circle is m, the string can support a mass of 30 kg before breaking. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s. What maximum speed can the mass have before the string breaks? Suppose an automobile has a kinetic energy of 500 J. When it moves with five times the speed, what will be its kinetic energy? Correct answer: 6500 J. Let E old 500 J n 5. The kinetic energy K v, so for v new n v old, K new K old v new v old (n v old) v old n Correct answer: m/s. The string will break when the tension exceeds the weight corresponding to 5 kg, so T max M g (30 kg)(9.8 m/s ). K new n K old (5) (500 J) 6500 J. When the smaller mass rotates in a horizontal circle, the string tension provides the centripetal force, so T mv r r T v m. Thus the maximum velocity before the string breaks is r Tmax v max m (0.691 m)(30 kg)(9.8 m/s ) 3.08 kg m/s.

Correct answer: J. To find the frictional force, F friction µ N, we need to find N from vertical force balance. N is in the same direction as the y component of F opposite the force of gravity, so F sin θ + N mg N mg F sin θ.

Pitching Machine Recoil points A baseball player uses a pitching machine to help him improve his batting average. He places the 66.1 kg machine on a frozen pond. The machine fires a kg baseball horizontally at a speed of 31.9 m/s. What is the magnitude of the recoil velocity of the machine? Correct answer: m/s. Let : m kg, m 66.1 kg, v 1f 31.9 m/s. We take the system to consist of the baseball the pitching machine. Because of the force of gravity the normal force, the system is not really isolated. However, both of these forces are directed perpendicularly to the motion of the system. Therefore, momentum is constant in the x direction because there are no external forces in this direction (assuming the surface is frictionless). The total momentum of the system before firing is zero. Therefore, the total momentum after firing must be zero, that is, or, in components, m 1 v 1f + m v f 0, m 1 v 1f m v f 0. v f m 1 m v 1f kg 66.1 kg (31.9 m/s ) m/s.
