Kasim asks Sarah whether there is an acceleration on the system in the y-direction. Which of Sarah's responses is correct? O "Yes, because there are forces in the y-direction, and IF, ma O "No, because the net force in the y-direction is zero." O"Yes, because there is always an acceleration near Earth." O "No, because there are no forces in the y-direction."

Your hands are wet, and the restroom towel dispenser is empty. What do you do to get drops of water off your hands? How does the motion of the drops exemplify one of Newtons laws? Which one?
Does the ground need to exert a force on you for you to jump off the ground, or do you need to exert a force on the ground? If the ground must exert a force on you, is that force greater than the force you exert on the ground?
The wheels of a midsize car exert a force of 2100 N backward on the road to accelerate the car in the forward direction. If the force of friction including air resistance is 250 N and the acceleration of the car is 1.80 m/s2, what is the mass of the car plus its occupants? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton's laws of motion. For this situation, draw a free-body diagram and write the net force equation.
The force on a baseball as with a bat can be more than 8,000 lb. No human can push on a bat with that much force. What is happening in this instance?
A 0.450-kg hammer is moving horizontally at 7.00 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail 1.00 cm into a board. Assume constant acceleration of the hammer-nail pair. a. Calculate the duration of the impact. b. What was the average force exerted on the nail?
A weight lifter stands on a bathroom scale. He pumps a barbell up and down. What happens to the reading on the scale as he does so? What If? What if he is strong enough to actually throw the barbell upward? How does the reading on the scale vary now?
A child jumping off the monkey bars at a playground accelerates toward the ground because of the gravitational force exerted on him by the Earth. From Newtons third law, the force exerted by the Earth on the child is equal in magnitude to the force exerted by the child on the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate? Explain.
While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces FA and FJ on the couch.

(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?
When you learn to drive, you discover that you need to up slightly on the brake pedal as you come to a stop or the car will stop with a jerk. Explain this in terms of the relationship between static and friction.
A block of mass m1= 10 kg is on a frictionless table to the left of a second block of mass m2 = 24 kg, attached by a horizontal string (Figure WU4.13). If a horizontal force of 120 N is exerted on the block m2in the positive x-direction, (a) use the system approach to find the acceleration of the two blocks. (b) What is the tension in the string connecting the blocks? (See Section 4.6.) Figure WU4.13
