Chapter 5, Problem 23P
| At a construction site, a 22.0 kg bucket of concrete is connected over a very light frictionless pulley to a 375 N box on the roof of a building. (See Figure 5.51.) There is no appreciable friction on the box, since it is on roller bearings. The box starts from rest. (a) Make free-body diagrams of the bucket and the box. (b) Find the acceleration of the bucket. (c) How fast is the bucket moving after it has fallen 1.50 m (assuming that the box has not yet reached the edge of the roof)?

(a) If you ride in an elevator moving upward with constant speed, is your apparent weight greater than, less than, or equalto your actual weight, mg? (b) Which of the following is the best explanation for your prediction?I. The elevator is moving upward. This will cause a person to press down harder on the floor, giving an apparent weightgreater than mg.II. The elevator moves with zero acceleration, and therefore the apparent weight is equal to mg.III. Because the elevator is moving upward it is partially lifting the person, resulting in an apparent weight less than mg

- A parachutist wants to design a parachute, such that a person weighing 150 lbs(667N) descends at a rate of 5.00 mph(2.23 m/s). To calculate the drag coefficient in kg/m, is the way to conceptualize the solution: 1. At terminal velocity the drag force equals the force of gravity. Since the net forces are zero, there is no acceleration and the velocity is constant. 2. The drag constant b is not 1. It comes from the terminal velocity equation: V_term = square root(mg/b) If you know the weight mg and the terminal velocity, then you can solve for b.
