A 1500 kg car traveling at 12 m/s suddenly runs out of gas while approaching the valley shown in the figure. The alert driver immediately puts the car in neutral so that it will roll. What will be the car’s speed as it coasts into the gas station on the other side of the valley?
A train car, initially traveling at 40 m/s, approaches 3 identical coupled train cars, which are initially at rest. The moving train car hitches to the stationary train cars, and they all move off together. What is their final speed? O 40 m/s O 30 m/s O 20 m/s 10 m/s O Om/s
On the surface of the Earth, a hammer and a feather are dropped from the same height at precisely the same moment. The feather impacts the Earth first because the force of gravity is weaker on the lighter feather. The hammer and feather both impact the ground at the same time. The hammer impacts the ground first because it is heavier than the feather. The feather hits the ground after the hammer because of air resistance.
A uranium nucleus (mass 238 units) at rest decays into helium nucleus (mass 4.0 units) and thorium nucleus (mass 234 units). If the speed of the helium nucleus is 6.0 x 10^5 m/s, what is the speed of the thorium nucleus?
A spaceship has a mass of 80 kg at rest and accelerates to high speed. A person at rest on the ground observes that the spaceship has 100 kg. How fast (in x 108 m/s) is the spaceship?
Henry, whose mass is 95 kg, stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. The scale reads 830 N for the first 3.8 s after the elevator starts moving, then 930 N for the next 3.8 s. What is the elevator's speed 7.6 s after starting?
A horizontal force of 12 N pushes a 0.50-kg book against a vertical wall. The book is initially at rest. If = 0.60 and = 0.50, the acceleration of the book is (in meter per second squared)
Three identical train cars, coupled together, are rolling east at speed v0v0. A fourth car traveling east at 2v0v0 catches up with the three and couples to make a four-car train. A moment later, the train cars hit a fifth car that was at rest on the tracks, and it couples to make a five-car train.What is the speed of the five-car train?
The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C (mass 2.34 x 10-26 kg) decays by the process known as beta decay in which the nucleus emits an electron (the beta particle) and a subatomic particle called a neutrino. In one such decay, the electron and the neutrino are emitted at right angles to each other. The electron (mass 9.11 x 10-31 kg) has a speed of 5.00 x 107 m/s and the neutrino has a momentum of 8.00 x 10-24 kg • m/s. What is the recoil speed of the nucleus?
A hockey puck is hit by a stick and slides off at an initial speed of 0.5 m/s. Assuming that the ice is frictionless, what is the speed of the puck after 1s?
Grab a meter stick or any uniform thin piece of wood about 1m in length. (e.g. the handle of a broom with the head removed). Place your index fingers at either end so that you are holding the stick up with just two fingers. Move your fingers slowly together. Where do they end up? Describe the motion of your fingers. Explain why this happens.
1. A hose sprays water into a train car. The hose is fixed in place and directed along the tracks, and the train car can move along the tracks without friction. The hose sprays water at a fixed rate a ([a] =MT-1) and speed v; the mass of the empty car is M. If the train car starts empty and at rest at t = 0, what is its speed at time t?
