A fraternity brother finds an old bungee cord at a garage sale and is contemplating on having a bungee jump event. He measures the spring constant of the cord (assume it is a linear spring) by applying a 500 N force to it and measuring a stretch of 2.5 m. Your job is to help him estimate how tall the jump tower should be. He knows the cord is L = 40 m long. he expects the cord to stretch d for an average 60 kg guy like himself, and at maximum stretch he wants his feet to still be 10 m above the ground. Determine: a. The maximum distance, d, the cord would stretch if a 60 kg brother jumped from tower height, H. b. The force developed in the cord at his max stretch position. c. Calculate the expected tower height. d. The velocity of the brother 40 m below from the topmost level of the tower.

Two somewhat heavy people enter an elevator. Based on their weight, the force that they exert on the steel cable (20 meter length, 0.05m diameter, Young's modulus = 2.0 X 1011 Pa) that suspends the elevator car in its shaft is 2500 N. How many mm will the elevator cable stretch?
A light balloon that has a volume 2.50 m³ filled with a helium (pne = 0.179 kg/m*) is tied to a light string of length L = 5.50 m. The string is tied to the ground, forming an "inverted" simple pendulum, as in Figure 2a. If the balloon is displaced slightly from the equilibrium position, as in Figure 2b (Pair = 1.29 kg/m³). Determine a) the spring constant, k, (Hint : Use an analogy with the mass hanging at the end of a spring. Solve for the value of k assuming that the restoring force acting on the system takes the same form as Hooke's law), b) the time period of its simple harmonic motion c) the frequency of the simple harmonic motion.

Consider why a wheelbarrow is helpful to move heavy stuff. Below is an example wheelbarrow loaded with 15 kg of stuff. 9. 1.25 m Center of mass € 0.45 m of body and handle Fx Fy 1.20 m 0.55 m 0.30 m The wheelbarrow has a single wheel of mass 2.5 kg, radius of 0.30 m. The body of the wheelbarrow and the stuff has a combine mass of 17.5 kg acting at the center of mass shown. The horizontal and vertical components of the force that we push with is named F and Fy, respectively. a. Draw separate free body diagrams for the wheel and for the wheelbarrow body. b. What force F and F, do you have to apply to the wheelbarrow to accelerate the wheelbarrow at 1.0 m/s2 to the right? (Hint: The body of the wheelbarrow does not rotate.)
