The starship Enterprise has its tractor beam locked onto some valuable debris and is trying to pull it toward the ship. A Klingon battle cruiser and a Romulan warbird are also trying to recover the item by pulling the debris with their tractor beams as shown in Figure P5.25. a. Given the following magnitudes of the tractor beam forces, find the net force experienced by the debris: FEnt = 7.59 106 N, FRom = 2.53 106 N, and FKling = 8.97 105 N. b. If the debris has a mass of 2549 kg, what is the net acceleration of the debris? FIGURE P5.25
A cosmic ray muon with mass m = 1.88 1028 kg impacting the Earths atmosphere slows down in proportion to the amount of matter it passes through. One such particle, initially traveling at 2.50 108 m/s in a straight line, decreases in speed to 1.50 108 m/s over a distance of 1.20 km. a. What is the magnitude of the force experienced by the muon? b. How does this force compare to the weight of the muon?
(a) Find the magnitude of the gravity force between a planet with mass 5.98 1024 kg and its moon, with mass 7.36 1022 kg, if the average distance between them is 3.84 108 m. (b) What is the acceleration of the moon toward the planet? (c) What is the acceleration of the planet toward the moon? (See Section 7.5.)
All object of mass m = 500 kg is suspended from the ceiling of an accelerating truck as shown in Figure P6.21. Taking a = 3.00 m/s2, find (a) the angle 0 that the string makes with the vertical and (b) the tension T in the string.
A student takes the elevator up to the fourth floor to see her favorite physics instructor. She stands on the floor of the elevator, which is horizontal. Both the student and the elevator are solid objects, and they both accelerate upward at 5.19 m/s2. This acceleration only occurs briefly at the beginning of the ride up. Her mass is 80.0 kg. What is the normal force exerted by the floor of the elevator on the student during her brief acceleration?
Figure P7.45 shows a picture of American astronaut Clay Anderson experiencing weightlessness on board the International Space Station. a. Most people have the misconception that a person in a spacecraft is weightless because he or she is no longer affected by gravity. Show that this premise cannot be true by computing the gravitational field of the Earth at an altitude of 200 km the typical altitude of a spacecraft in orbit. Compare this result with the gravitational field on the surface of the Earth. b. Why would astronauts in orbit experience weightlessness even if they are experiencing a gravitational field (and therefore a gravitational force)?
A ball is falling toward the ground. Which of the following statements are false? (a) The force that the ball exerts on Earth is equal in magnitude to the force that Earth exerts on the ball, (b) The ball undergoes the same acceleration as Earth. (c) The magnitude of the force the Earth exerts on the ball is greater than the magnitude of the force the ball exerts on the Earth.

The United States possesses the ten largest warships in the world, aircraft carriers of the Nimitz class. Suppose one of the ships bobs up to float 11.0 cm higher in the ocean water when 50 fighters take off from it in a time interval of 25 min, at a location where the free-fall acceleration is 9.78 m/s2. The planes have an average laden mass of 29 000 kg. Find the horizontal area enclosed by the waterline of the ship.
6. Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, this gun accelerates a 5.0-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 4.0 × 10' m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 4.9 × 10° N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?
MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER At a time when mining asteroids has become feasible, astronauts have connected a line between their 3400-kg space tug and a 6050-kg asteroid. Using their ship's engine, they pull on the asteroid with a force of 490 N. Initially the tug and the asteroid are at rest, 500 m apart.
