A body of mass 100 kg is weighed at the North Pole and at the equator with a spring scale. What is the scale reading at these two points? Assume that g=9.83m/s2 at the pole.
Check Your Understanding Suppose that Balto in Example 2.10 leaves the game to attend to more important matter, but Astro Clifford and Dug continue playing. Astro and Clifford’s pull on the toy does not change, but Dug rims around and bites on the toy in a different place. With how big a force and in what direction must Dug pull on the toy now to balance out the combined pulls from Clifford and Astro? Illustrate this situation by drawing a vector diagram indicating all forces involved.
A person doing a chin-up weighs 700 N, exclusive of the arms. During the first 25.0 cm of the lift, each arm exerts an upward force of 355 N on the torso. If the upward movement starts from rest, what is the persons velocity at that point?

While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces FA and FJ on the couch. Andrea’s force is due north with a magnitude of 130.0 N and Jennifer’s force is 32 east of north with a magnitude of 180.0 N. (a) Find the net force in component form. (b) Find the magnitude and direction of the net force. (c) If Andrea and Jennifer’s housemates, David and Stephanie, disagree with the move and want to prevent its relocation, with what combined forceFDS should they push so that the couch does not move?
A drone is being directed across a frictionless ice- covered lake. The mass of the drone is 1.50 kg, and its velocity is 3.00i m/s . After 10.0 s, the velocity is 9.00i+4.00j m/s . If a constant force in the horizontal direction is causing this change in motion, find (a) the components of the force and (b) the magnitude of the force.

A mass m₁ = 9.00 kg is connected by a light string that passes over a pulley of mass M = 14.0 kg to a mass m₂ = 12.5 kg sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface (see figure). There is no slippage between the string and the pulley. What is the magnitude of the tension that is acting on mass m₂? (The moment of inertia of the pulley is ½/Mr².)
