Students have asked these similar questions
1, An 8.00-kg box sits on a level floor. You give the
box a sharp push and find that it travels 8.22 m in 2.8 s before
coming to rest again. (a) You measure that with a different push
the box traveled 4.20 m in 2.0 s. Do you think the box has a con-
stant acceleration as it slows down? Explain your reasoning.
(b) You add books to the box to increase its mass. Repeating the
experiment, you give the box a push and measure how long it
takes the box to come to rest and how far the box travels. The results, including the initial experiment with no added mass, are
given in the table:
Added Mass (kg) Distance (m) Time (s)
0 8.22 2.8
3.00 10.75 3.2
7.00 9.45 3.0
12.0 7.10 2.6
In each case, did your push give the box the same initial speed?
What is the ratio between the greatest initial speed and the small-
est initial speed for these four cases? (c) Is the average horizontal
force f exerted on the box by the floor the same in each case?
Graph the magnitude of…
A 100-kg block is released from rest. It takes it 0.90 s for the 100 kg mass to travel 1.0 m to the floor. What is the
acceleration of either mass, given the smaller mass m is 60 kg? The pulley does not have significant mass or friction.
100 kg
1.0 m
10. Refer to Figure. Block A has a mass of 3.00 kg, block B has a mass of 5.00 kg and block C has
a mass of 2.00 kg. The pulleys are ideal and there is no friction between block B and the table.
What is the acceleration of the masses?
A 0.981 m/s
B 1.86 m/s2
C 2.94 m/s2
D 4.20 m/s2
