A pendulum consists of a small object hanging from the ceiling at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.79 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.3 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward in a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle 0 with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle 0. Number i !

A block slides along a track with an initial velocity vo = 7.0 m/s from one level to a higher level after passing through an intermediate valley. The difference h from the initial position to the elevated track is 0.89 m. The track is frictionless until reaches the top. There (at the top), a frictional force stops the block in a distance d. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.60. Find the distance d.

Tarzan grabs a vine of length L=8.9 m and attempts to swing across the crocodile infested river. The vine breaks just as Tarzan is at lowest point of his swing, a horizontal distance D=60 m and H= 4.5 m above the riverbank. You barely mix it across, landing on the edge of the riverbank. The tension in the vine when it broke was a 1000 N. Find Tarzan's mass.

Your answer is partially correct. In the figure a block slides along a path that is without friction until the block reaches the section of length L = 0.66 m, which begins at height h = 1.1 m, on a ramp of angle 0 = 32°. In that section the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.410. The block passes through point A with a speed of 8.4 m/s. If the block can reach point B (where the friction ends), what is its speed there, and if it cannot, what is its greatest height above A? Number i 8 6.46 Unit m/s

Small ice cubes, each of mass 7.15 g, slide down a frictionless track in a steady stream, as shown in the figure below. Starting from rest, each cube moves down through a net vertical distance of h = 1.50 m and leaves the bottom end of the track at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. At the highest point of its subsequent trajectory, the cube strikes a vertical wall and rebounds with half the speed it had upon impact. If 25 cubes strike the wall per second, what average force is exerted upon the wall? N ---direction--- 1.50 m 40.0⁰
