- A mysterious force acts on all particles along a particular line and always points towards a particular point P on the line. The magnitude of the force on a particle increases as the cube of the distance from that point, that is, F∝ r3, if the distance from the P to the position of the particle is r. It has been determined that the constant of proportionality is 0.23 N/m3, i.e. the magnitude of the force on a particle can be written as 0.23r3, when the particle is at a distance r from the force center. Find the magnitude of the potential energy, in joules, of a particle subjected to this force when the particle is at a distance 0.21 m from point P assuming the potential energy to be zero when the particle is at P.

The building has a height of 500 feet, the passenger has a mass of 80 kg, and the scale has a mass of 7 kg. The scale sits on the floor of the elevator. (It is an Otis elevator, so we will label it as "O" so as not to confuse its forces with those caused by the earth.) You may take g = 10 N/kg. For doing this problem it might be useful to start by drawing free-body diagrams for the passenger and the scale. Consider the vertical forces acting on the passenger and the scale WE→P: The force of the earth pulling down on the passenger (weight). WE→S: The force of the earth pulling down on the scale (weight). NP→S: The force of the passenger pushing down on the scale (normal). NS→P: The force of the scale pushing up on the passenger (normal). NO→S: The force of the elevator pushing up on the scale (normal). NO→P: The force of the elevator pushing up on the passenger (normal). Which of these forces affect the motion of the passenger? Select…arrow_forward
- A car of mass 6000 kg moving at 40 m/s is suddenly brought to a stop when a deer crosses the road. If a braking force of 600,000 N/m is needed to bring the car to a stop, what was the duration of the force?arrow_forwardTwo students are pushing crates across a frictionless floor. The crates are initially at rest. Bing applies a horizontal force of 13 N to his crate. Bob, who is taller than Bing, pushes on his crate at an angle of 53 degrees below the horizontal, also with a force of 13 N. Find the ratio of the masses of the two crates if Bing's crate is moving at twice the speed of Bob's crate after they have traveled a distance of 23.5 m across the floor?arrow_forwardA stubborn dog is being walked on a leash by its owner.
