As a fish jumps vertically out of the water, assume that only two significant forces act on it: an upward force F exerted by the tail fin and the downward force due to gravity. A record Chinook salmon has a length of 1.50 m and a mass of 61.0 kg. If this fish is moving upward at 3.00 m/s as its head first breaks the surface and has an upward speed of 6.00 m/s after two-thirds of its length has left the surface, assume constant acceleration and determine (a) the salmon’s acceleration and (b) the magnitude of the force F during this interval.

- A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible?

- The engines of a tanker broke down and the wind pushes the ship with a constant speed of 1.5 m / s straight towards a reef. When the boat is 500 m from the reef, the wind stops and the engineer manages to start the engines. The rudder is stuck, so the only option is to try to accelerate backwards. The mass of the ship and its cargo is 3.6 x 107 kg and the engines produce a net horizontal force of 8 x 104 N. The hull can withstand impacts at a speed of 0.2 m / s or less. The retarding force that the water exerts on the hull of the ship can be neglected. a) The equation of motion that corresponds to the horizontal component is? b)The acceleration of the ship is equal to? c) If the reef does not exist, the vessel, before stopping, travels what distance?arrow_forwardAn 8.00 kg box sits on a ramp that is inclined at 33.0 above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface of the ramp is mk = 0.300. A constant horizontal force F = 26.0 N is applied to the box, and the box moves down the ramp. If the box is initially at rest, what is its speed 2.00 s after the force is applied?arrow_forwardA cooler (mass 3 kg) is initially at rest on a horizontal floor. It is then pushed in a straight line for 1.5 m by a small child who exerts a horizontal force with magnitude 37.5 N.arrow_forward
- A stone used in the sport of curling has a mass of 18.0 kg and is initially at rest, sitting on a flat horizontal ice surface. It is pushed with a constant horizontal force of magnitude 24.0 N over a distance of 4.00 m. (Note that in the sport of curling, heavy masses called stones are pushed for a certain distance over a surface of ice before being allowed to continue without pushing. This question only considers the pushing phase. You may assume that any friction between the stone and the ice is negligible.) (a) (i) What is the acceleration of the stone and what is the work done in accelerating it? (ii) By considering the conservation of energy of the stone, calculate the speed of the stone at the end of the push. Show that you have checked that the value for the magnitude of speed and its unit are sensible. (b) How much power is supplied by the person pushing the stone at the beginning of the push and how much is supplied at the end of the push? (c) Starting from your calculated…arrow_forwardA roller-coaster car is towed up an incline at a steady speed of 0.500 m/s by a chain parallel to the surface of the incline. The slope is 3.00%, which means that the elevation increases by 3.00 m for every 100.0 m of horizontal distance. The mass of the roller-coaster car is 594 kg. Ignoring friction, what is the magnitude of the force exerted on the car by the chain?arrow_forwardThe figure shows a container of mass m1 = 4.9 kg connected to a block of mass m2 by a cord looped around a frictionless pulley.
