- Usually, we do not walk or even stand on a lightweight boat or raft because of the danger of falling into the water. If you have ever stepped off a small boat onto a dock, however, you have probably noticed that the boat moves away from the dock as you step toward the dock or out of the boat. A heavy dog running on a long lightweight raft presents a similar situation. At first, the raft and the dog are at rest with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38A) so that vi=0. The dog then runs on top of the raft at vd=vd with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38B). The dog has twice the mass of the raft. Find an expression for the velocity of the raft after the dog began running. FIGURE P10.38arrow_forwardA suspicious physics student watches a stunt performed at an ice show. In the stunt, a performer shoots an arrow into a bale of hay (Fig. P11.24). Another performer rides on the bale of hay like a cowboy. After the arrow enters the bale, the balearrow system slides roughly 5 m along the ice. Estimate the initial speed of the arrow. Is there a trick to this stunt? FIGURE P11.24arrow_forwardA spring-loaded toy gun is aimed vertically and fired after a spherical projectile of mass m = 30.0 g is loaded by compressing the spring with force constant k = 825 N/m a distance of 9.00 cm. As the projectile travels a total distance of 59.0 cm along the barrel of the gun, it experiences a friction force of 1.75 N. What is the height reached by the projectile above its initial location with the spring compressed?arrow_forward
- An object of mass m = 4.00 kg that is moving with a speed of 10.0 m/s collides head-on with another object, and the collision lasts 1.50 s. A graph showing the magnitude of the force during the collision versus time is shown in Figure P11.59, where the force is exerted in the direction opposite the initial velocity. Find the speed of the 4.00-kg mass after collision. FIGURE P11.59arrow_forward(a) A very powerful vacuum cleaner has a hose 2.86 cm in diameter. With the end of the hose placed perpendicularly on the flat face of a brick, what is the weight of the heaviest brick that the cleaner can lift? (b) What If? An octopus uses one sucker of diameter 2.86 cm on each of the two shells of a clam in an attempt to pull the shells apart. Find the greatest force the octopus can exert on a clamshell in salt water 32.3 m deep.arrow_forwardYou have been chosen as the test subject for the newest attraction at Disney. This attraction is a single-person roller coaster ride that has a 25.0 m drop followed by a plunger/piston device that brings the ride to rest. The plunger/piston is connected to a cylinder that contains 250 kg of water. The cart has a mass of 75.0 kg and starts at rest from the top of the track. To determine the total mass of the cart during the ride you must add your mass (MY MASS IS 55KG). As the cart moves down the track it has been determined that friction in the wheels and axles results in the production of 2750 J of thermal and sound energy combined. The plunger/piston at the bottom of the device has been designed to stop the cart with a maximum acceleration of 5.00 g’s (i.e., 49.0 m/s2). Question: The remaining kinetic energy of the cart is removed as work is done pushing in the plunger/piston and compressing the water inside the cylinder.

The ramp is 6 m long and is at an angle of 25°. There is friction on the ramp for the first crate. The laborer doesn’t know that there is a small leak in one of the bottles. The leak leaves a layer of oil on the ramp. The oil creates a frictionless surface for the second crate Wayne sends down the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, the speed of the second crate (without friction) is 2.5 the speed of the first crate (with friction). Find the coefficient of kinetic friction. Hint: this is a multistep problem that is be solved using only energy equations. Do not use kinematics . Use conservation of energy and start with the frictionless case.arrow_forward
- A light hollow tube of 2.00 cm diameter and 1.0 m length is filled with tiny beads of different density. The resulting density distribution is linear, with the left end having a density of 2.4 g/cm3, and the right end having a density of 5.7 g/cm3. How far from the left end will be the center of mass (give answer in cm).arrow_forwardReturn 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.
