- A toy car is rolling down the ramp as shown in the figure. The car's mass is 1.7 kg and the ramp makes an angle of θ = 16 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane. Assume the car rolls without friction. Using the coordinate system specified, give an expression for the acceleration of the car in terms of θ,g and the unit vectors i and j. What is the magnitude of this acceleration in m/s^2arrow_forwardAn adventurous archeologist (m = 85.5 kg) tries to cross a river by swinging from a vine. The vine is 11.0 m long, and his speed at the bottom of the swing is 7.50 m/s. The archeologist doesn't know that the vine has a breaking strength of 1,000 N. Does he make it safely across the river without falling in? Yes Noarrow_forwardA huge pendulum is made out of a 8.26-m cable attached at the top to a steel beam. The bottom of the cable is attached to a 38.7-kg anvil that swings back and forth. At the very bottom of its swing, the anvil travels at a speed of 2.53 m/s. Find the tension (in N) in the cable. (You may assume that the cable itself has negligible mass.)arrow_forward
- You are playing a game and you push a cart to give it in. speed. The cart starts at the bottom (zero) of a ramp and after reaching the top of the ramp, the cart travels across a horizontal track w/ friction. The mass of the cart is 44 x 10^-3 kg. The ramp is 56 cm high. The length is 70 cm. What can you infer of the intial speed in (m/s)arrow_forwardA person pushing a uniformly-loaded 31.7 kg wheelbarrow of length L with pushing force P is attempting to get it over a step. The maximum horizontal force that the person can apply is P, = 233 N. What is the maximum height h of the step, expressed as a fraction n of the wheel's radius R. that the person can get the wheelbarrow over?

- The cable lifting an elevator is wrapped around a 1.2-m-diameter cylinder that is turned by the elevator's motor. The elevator is moving upward at a speed of 1.9 m/s . It then slows to a stop, while the cylinder turns one complete revolution.How long does it take for the elevator to stop?arrow_forwardYou are in charge of a cannon that exerts a force 17100 N on a cannon ball while the ball is in the barrel of the cannon. The length of the cannon barrel is 2.37 m and the cannon is aimed at a 36.7 ◦ angle from the ground. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If you want the ball to leave the cannon with speed v0 = 89 m/s, what mass cannon ball must you use? Answer in units of kg. Answer in units of kg.arrow_forwardSome physics students are studying periodic motion using an oscillating mass on a spring. After collecting data, they sketched the position versus time graph shown. If the spring constant is 5.84N/m, then what is the mass, in kilograms?arrow_forward
