Solve part (b) of Example 6.6 using ac=v2/r.
. In January 2003, an 18-year-old student gained a bit of fame for surviving—with only minor injuries—a remarkable traffic accident. The vehicle he was driving was "clipped" by another one, left the road, and rolled several times. He was thrown upward from the vehicle (he wasn't wearing a seat belt) and ended up dangling from an overhead telephone cable and a ground wire about 8 meters above the ground. Rescuers got him down after 20 minutes. It is estimated that he reached a maximum height of about 10 meters. (a) Estimate the driver's vertical speed when he was thrown from the vehicle. (b) If he had not landed in the wires, how fast would he have been going when he hit the ground?
Consider a child holding a helium balloon in a closed car at rest. What would the child observe the balloon to do when the car (a) accelerates from rest and (b) brakes to a stop? (The balloon does not touch the roof of the car.)
Rank the following three collisions in terms of the extent of damage that the car would experience. Explain your reasons for ranking the collisions as you did. (a) A car going 10 m/s striking an identical car that was stationary on level ground. (b) A car going 10 m/s running into an immovable concrete wall. (c) A head-on collision between identical cars, boom going 10 m/s.
(Indicates a review question. which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) . An extreme roller coaster is moving along its track. During a brief period the track exerts a downward force on the cars. Describe what is happening. (What is the shape of the track at this point?)
What is the last thing you should do when solving a problem? Explain.
An airbag in an automobile inflates when a collision occurs, which protects the passenger from serious injury (see the photo on page 254). Why does the airbag soften the blow? Discuss the physics involved in this dramatic photograph.
A barge is pulled by the two tugboats shown in the following figure. One tugboat pulls on the barge with a force of magnitude 4000 units of force at 15 above the line AB (see the figure and the other tugboat pulls on the barge with a force of magnitude 5000 units of force at 12 below the line AB. Resolve the pulling forces to their scalar components and find the components of the resultant force pulling on the barge. What is the magnitude of the resultant pull? What is its direction relative to the line AB?
A mountain 10.0 km from a person exerts a gravitational force on him equal to 2.00 of his weight. (a) Calculate the mass of the mountain. (b) Compare the mountain’s mass with that of Earth. (c) What is unreasonable or inconsistent? (Note that accurate gravitational measurements can easily detect the effect of nearby mountains and variations in local geology.)
(a) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (b) If AF=BF , can we conclude A=B ? (c) If FA=BF , can we conclude A=B ? Why or why not?
The pyramid described in Problem 20 contains approximately 20 million stone blocks that average 2.50 tons each. Find the weight of this pyramid in pounds.
A roller coaster car starts from rest at the top of a track 30.0 m long and inclined at 20.0to the horizontal. Assume that friction can be ignored. (a) What is the acceleration of the car? (b) How much time elapses before it reaches the bottom of the track?
