A 670 N student stands in the middle of a frozen pond having a radius of 6.9 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 2.9 kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 6.9 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s². How long does it take him to reach the south shore? Answer in units of s.
A basketball player of mass m=88.4 kg jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body d1=0.44 m, then he accelerates through this distance by forcefully straightening his legs. This player leaves the floor with a speed sufficient to carry him d2=0.56 m above the floor. Write an expression for the speed v with which the basketball player leaves the floor. Write an expression for the speed v with wiich the basketball player leaves the floor. Write an expression for the acceleration, a, of the basketball player during the leg-straightening. Write an expression for the force upward force, FN, exerted on the basketball player by the floor during the leg straightening. What is the magnitude, in newtons, of the force FN while the player is straightening his legs?
1. A pitcher throws a baseball with mass 0.2 kg straight upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s. Calculate the speed (in m/s) of the baseball at a height of 15.0 m above the pitcher’s hand.
After collecting so much Halloween candy, you want to find a secret place to eat it all without being bothered. You see a small hiding place on top of a neighbors shed. Luckily, the neighbor has a ramp that leads up to the roof of the shed. You pull your bag of candy with a mass of 6.2 kg up the frictionless ramp which is at an angle of 29 degrees above the horizontal. The bag has an acceleration of 1.81 m/s2 parallel to, and UP the ramp while you are pulling -What is the Normal Force exerted on bag of candy by the ramp? - What force do you need to pull with in order to give the bag an acceleration of 1.81 m/s2?
A student pushes a 12-kg block on a frictionless, horizontal surface. If the block is initially at rest, what is the speed of the block after the student pushes the block for 5 seconds with an acceleration of 2.0 m/s/s? O 2.0 m/s 6.0 m/s 10 m/s 60 m/s
A 25 kg child sits in the middle of a frozen, frictionless pond of radius 15 m with their 11 kg dog. In order to make it off the pond, the child pushes off of the dog. The dog then travels at a velocity of 14 m/s. What is the speed and direction of the child? How long does it take the child to make it to the edge of the pond? How long does it take the dog to make it to the edge of the pond?
About 80 g of blood is pumped from the heart during each heartbeat. The blood starts at rest and has a speed of about 0.60 m/s in the aorta. If the pumping takes 0.17 s, What is the magnitude of the average force on the blood?
An object with a mass of 1.58 kg is initially at rest upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. An applied force of 4.79 N i acts on the object for 2.94 s. What is the object's final speed? Enter a number rounded to 2 decimal places and assume the answer has proper SI Units.
A 10 m long vertical cannon is used to accelerate a 1.0 kg ball straight up into air. A constant force of 13.2N is used to access bowling ball length of the canon. what is the ball's approximate velocity as it leaves the canon assuming no energy loss to friction
A 28.0-kg block is connected to an empty 2.26-kg bucket by a cord running over a frictionless pulley. The coefficient of static friction between the table and the block is 0.48 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the table and the block is 0.25. Sand is gradually added to the bucket until the system just begins to move. Ignore the mass of the cord. Calculate the mass of sand added to the bucket. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. m= _______ units Calculate the acceleration of the system. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. a= _________ units
A student launches a small rocket which starts from rest at ground level. At a height of h = 1.8 km the rocket reaches a speed of vf = 342 m/s. At that height the rocket runs out of fuel, so there is no longer any thrust propelling it. Take the positive direction to be upward in this problem B: After the rocket's engine turns off at a height of h = 1.8 km, it continues to move upward due to the velocity that it reached. What is the rocket's acceleration, in meters per second squared, during the period from engine shutoff until it returns to the ground? Ignore air resistance. C: Calculate the maximum height, in meters above ground level, that the rocket reaches.
Two penguins, Wheezy and Mumble, are racing down an icy slope into the water below. Wheezy has a mass of 22 kg. Mumble has a mass of 25 kg. The slope is angled at eight degrees to the horizontal. They both start from the same position at the same time, and slide down the icy slope entirely due to gravity alone. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.12 between the penguins and the ice. Who wins the race and what is the winner's acceleration when they reach the finish line (ie the water)?
