**Problem 7.68**A compound bow in archery allows the user to hold the bowstring at full draw with considerably less force than the maximum force exerted by the string. The draw force as a function of the string position \(x\) for a particular compound bow is shown in **Figure 1**.**Graph Explanation:**The graph displays the relationship between the force \(f\) (in newtons) and the string position \(x\) (in meters). - The x-axis represents the string position \(x\) ranging from 0 to 0.7 meters.- The y-axis measures the force \(f\) ranging from 0 to 400 newtons.The graph shows:- The force increases linearly from 0 N at 0 m to about 350 N at 0.1 m.- The force remains constant at 350 N between 0.1 m and 0.4 m.- The force decreases linearly back to 0 N at 0.6 m.**Part A**How much work does the archer do on the bow in order to draw the string from \(x = 0\) to \(x = 0.60\) m?Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units.[Input box for value and units]**Part B**If all of this work becomes the kinetic energy of a 0.080 kg arrow, what is the speed of the arrow?Express your answer to two significant figures and include appropriate units.[Input box for value and units]

Review. A force platform is a tool used to analyze the performance of athletes by measuring the vertical force the athlete exerts on the ground as a function of time. Starting from rest, a 65.0-kg athlete jumps down onto the platform from a height of 0.600 m. While she is in contact with the platform during the time interval 0t 0.800 s, the force she exerts on it is described by the function F = 9 200t 11 500 t2 where F is in newtons and t is in seconds. (a) What impulse did the athlete receive from the platform? (b) With what speed did she reach the platform? (c) With what speed did she leave it? (d) To what height did she jump upon leaving the platform?
A certain orthodontist uses a wire brace to align a patients crooked tooth as in Figure P5.4. The tension in the wire is adjusted to have a magnitude of 18.0 N. Find the magnitude of the net force exerted by the wire on the crooked tooth.
CASE STUDY In the train collision case study (Chapter 5, page 119), we ignored the drag force on the trains. Estimate the drag on the trains and compare it to the kinetic friction on them. Is it okay to ignore drag? Explain.
Scissors are like a double-lever "Stem, Which of the Simple machines in Figure 9.23 and Figure 9.24 is most analogous to scissors? Figure 9.23 A nail puller is a lever with a large mechanical advantage. The external forces on the nail puller are represented by solid arrows. The force that the nail puller applies to the nail ( Fo ) is not a force on the nail puller. The reaction force the nail exerts back on the puller ( Fn ) is an external force and is equal and opposite to Fo. The perpendicular lever arms of the input and output forces are li and l0 Figure 9.24 (a) In the case of the wheelbarrow, the output force or load is between the pivot and the input force. The pivot IS the wheel's axle. Here, the output force is greater than the input force. Thus, a wheelbarrow enables you to lift much heavier loads than you could with your body alone. (b) In the case of the shovel, the input force is between the pivot and the load, but the input lever arm is shorter than the output lever arm. The pivot is at the handle held by the right hand. Here, the output force (supporting the shovel's load) is less than the input force (from the hand nearest the load), because the Input is exerted closer to the pivot than is the output

A 2.45-kg ball is shot into a 0.450-kg box that is at rest on a frictionless, horizontal table (Fig. P11.25); after the collision, the ball is embedded in the box. The box is attached to a 0.30-m rope that is attached to the table on the other end. The balls initial velocity is perpendicular to the rope as shown. If the balls initial speed before impact is 13.5 m/s, what is the tension in the rope after the collision? FIGURE P11.25
Review. As shown in Figure P8.26, a light string that does not stretch changes from horizontal to vertical as it passes over the edge of a table. The string connects m1, a 3.50-kg block originally at rest on the horizontal table at a height h = 1.20 m above the floor, to m2, a hanging 1.90-kg block originally a distance d = 0.900 m above the floor. Neither the surface of the table nor its edge exerts a force of kinetic friction. The blocks start to move from rest. The sliding block m1 is projected horizontally after reaching the edge of the table. The hanging block m2 stops without bouncing when it strikes the floor. Consider the two blocks plus the Earth as the system. (a) Find the speed at which m1 leaves the edge of the table. (b) Find the impact speed of m1 on the floor. (c) What is the shortest length of the string so that it does not go taut while m1 is in flight? (d) Is the energy of the system when it is released from rest equal to the energy of the system just before m1 strikes the ground? (e) Why or why not? Figure P8.26
In a laboratory model of cars skidding to a stop, data are measured for four trials using two blocks. The blocks have identical masses but different coefficients of kinetic friction with a table: k = 0.2 and 0.8. Each block is launched with speed vi = 1 m/s and slides across the level table as the block comes to rest. This process represents the first two trials. For the next two trials, the procedure is repeated but the blocks are launched with speed vi = 2 m/s. Rank the four trials (a) through (d) according to the stopping distance from largest to smallest. If the stopping distance is the same in two cases, give them equal rank. (a) vi = 1 m/s, k = 0.2 (b) vi = 1 m/s, k = 0.8 (c) vi = 2 m/s, k = 0.2 (d) vi = 2 m/s, k = 0.8
To give a pet hamster exercise, some people put the hamster in a ventilated ball andallow it roam around the house(Fig. P13.66). When a hamsteris in such a ball, it can cross atypical room in a few minutes.Estimate the total kinetic energyin the ball-hamster system. FIGURE P13.66 Problems 66 and 67
Return to Example 9.9 and use the result to find the tension in the rope. Example 9.9 Snow Tubing At a winter recreation resort, snow tubers at the bottom of the hill hook their tubes to a tow rope. A motor pulls the rope so that tubers move at constant velocity to the top of the hill. (Ignore the momentary acceleration of the tuber when he first attaches his tube to the rope.) The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tube and the snow is k = 0.16. A boy and his tube with a total weight of 415 N are pulled a distance of 255 m up the 18 incline (Fig. 9.29). Consider the Earth, the boy, his tube, and the snow along his path to make up the system. Find the energy transferred from the motor to the system via the work done by the rope. FIGURE 9.29
Review. Why is the following situation impossible? An athlete tests her hand strength by having an assistant hang weights from her belt as she hangs onto a horizontal bar with her hands. When the weights hanging on her belt have increased to 80% of her body weight, her hands can no longer support her and she drops to the floor. Frustrated at not meeting her hand-strength goal, she decides to swing on a trapeze. The trapeze consists of a bar suspended by two parallel ropes, each of length , allowing performers to swing in a vertical circular are (Fig. P8.38). The athlete holds the bar and steps off an elevated platform, starting from rest with the ropes at an angle i = 60.0 with respect to the vertical. As she swings several times back and forth in a circular are, she forgets her frustration related to the hand-strength test. Assume the size of the performers body is small compared to the length and air resistance is negligible. Figure P8.38
