The figure shows a thin rod, of length L= 2.20 m and negligible mass, that can pivot about one end to rotate in a vertical circle. A heavy ball of mass m = 8.10 kg is attached to the other end. The rod is pulled aside to angle 00 = 8 and released with initial velocity V 0. (a) What is the speed of the ball at the lowest point? (b) Does the speed increase, decrease, or remain the same if the mass is increased?

To form a pendulum, a 0.092 kg ball is attached to one end of a rod of length 0.62 m and negligible mass, and the other end of the rod is mounted on a pivot. The rod is rotated until it is straight up, and then it is released from rest so that it swings down around the pivot. When the ball reaches its lowest point, what are (a) its speed and (b) the tension in the rod? Next, the rod is rotated until it is horizontal, and then it is again released from rest. (c) At what angle from the vertical does the tension in the rod equal the weight of the ball? (d) If the mass of the ball is increased, does the answer to (c) increase, decrease, or remain the same?
In the figure, a very small toy race car of mass m is released from rest,rolls down on the frictionless loop-the-loop track of radius R. It is released at a height h= 4.0 R above the floor. What is the speed of the car at point A? (point A is a point on the circle at the same height as the center of the circle but the car is on the inner side of the circle). Draw the free-body diagram of the car at point A and calculate the magnitude of the normal force that the track exerts on the car at point A? answers should be in terms of m, R, and g.
An object is projected from the surface of the earth with a speed of 2.72×104 m/s. What is its speed when it is very far from the earth? (Neglect air resistance.)
A pendulum consists of a bob of mass m and a string of constant length 1 = 63.0 cm and negligible mass. The free end of the string is attached to a fixed point A and the pendulum swings to-and-fro in a vertical plane. A 1-h speed of bob = h 30° U If the pendulum bob has a speed u = 3.10 m s¹ at the lowest point of its swing, what is the speed of the bob when the string makes an angle of 30° with the vertical, as indicated in the diagram? Give your answer by entering a number, specified to an appropriate number of significant figures, in the empty box below. 1 ms-1.
Consider system consisting three masses on the x axis. Mass m1=1.00 kg is at =1.00 m ; mass m2 = 2.00 kg is at x = 2.00m and mass m3=3.00 kg is at x = 3.00m . What is the totalgravitational potential energy yy * (in J) this system ?
Two sticky spheres are suspended from light ropes of length L that are attached to the ceiling at a common point. Sphere A has mass 2m and is hanging at rest with its rope vertical. Sphere B has mass m and is held so that its rope makes an angle with the vertical that puts B a vertical height H above A. Sphere B is released from rest and swings down, collides with sphere A, and sticks to it. In terms of H, what is the maximum height above the original position of A reached by the combined spheres after their collision?
A proton (mass m = 1.67 × 10-27 kg) is being accelerated along a straight line at 2.70 × 1011 m/s2 in a machine. If the proton has an initial speed of 9.00 × 106 m/s and travels 5.60 cm, what then is (a) its speed and (b) the increase in its kinetic energy?
At a post office truck loading station, a small 0.2 kg package is released from rest at point A on a track that forms a quarter circle with a radius of 1.60 m. The packet is so small relative to said radius that it can be treated as a particle. The package slides along the track and reaches point B with a speed of 4.80 m/s. From here, the package slides 3.0 m on a horizontal surface to point C, where it stops. 0.21 A: R=1.60 m a)- What coefficient of kinetic friction does the horizontal surface have? -0.7281 B -3.00 m B: 0.45 m = 0.200 kg C: -0.8321 b)- How much work does friction do on the package as it slides along the circular arc between A and B? 0.39 C D: 0.835 J 0.27 D: -3.821 E: 0.30 3.28 J
An object of mass m= 7.6 kg is free to move on a horizontal surface without any friction. It is initially at rest and starts moving under a net force of F =(3N)î +(4N)ĵ . What is the object's speed in m/s after moving 1 meter?
A ball is held at rest at some height above a horizontal surface. Once the ball is released it falls under gravity, hits the surface at time T1 , and starts bouncing vertically up and down. Suppose that with each bounce the ball loses a fixed fraction p (with 1>p>0) of its energy. This loss could be due to a number of reasons (inelasticity, drag, etc) that are left unspecified. How many times will the ball bounce before coming to rest? Provide a detailed explanation of your reasoning, not simply a one-line answer. How long will it take for the ball to come to rest (if at all), i.e., what is the stopping time Tstop? Give your answer for Tstop as a single formula that contains only two independent variables, namely p and the time T1 .
The three spheres in the figure, with masses MA = 85 g, mB = 13 g, and mc = 17 g, have their centers on a common line, with L = 22 cm and d = 3 cm.
