Chapter 7, Problem 44P

(II) At the top of a pole vault, and athlete actually can do work pushing on the pole before releasing it. Suppose the pushing force that the pole exerts back on the athlete is given by F(x) = (1.5 × 10² N/m) x – (1.9 × 10² N/m²) x² acting over a distance of 0.20 m. How much work is done on the athlete?

2.70 Egg Drop. You are on the Figure P2.70 roof of the physics building, 46.0 m above the ground (Fig. P2.70). Your physics professor, who is 1.80 m tall, is walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 1.20 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your profes- sor's head, where should the profes- sor be when you release the egg? Assume that the egg is in free fall. 2.71 CALC The acceleration of a particle is given by ax(t) = -2.00 m/s² +(3.00 m/s³)t. (a) Find the initial velocity Vox such that v = 1.20 m/s 1.80 m 46.0 m

One has to push down a ball with a force of 470 Newtons in order to hold the ball still, completely submerged under the surface of the water. What is the volume of the styrofoam ball in cubic meters? Use 997 kg/m3 as the density of water, 95 kg/m3 for the density of the styrofoam, and g = 9.8 m/s2.

The cube is placed in a bucket of water and find that it floats, with 33% of its volume submerged below the surface of the water. What is the density of the mystery material? The material is uniformly distributed throughout the solid cube, with the number of kg/m3.
