Chapter 8, Problem 8.4QQ
Three identical balls are thrown from the top of a building, all with the same initial speed. As shown in Figure 8.3, the first is thrown horizontally, the second at some angle above the horizontal, and the third at some angle below the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance, rank the speeds of the balls at the instant each hits the ground.

A 0.25 kg ball is suspended from a light 1.2 m string as shown. The string makes an angle of 35° with the vertical. Let U = 0 when the ball is at its lowest point (θ = 0).
Part A: Draw diagram and label coordinates.
Part B: What is the gravitational potential energy, in joules, of the ball before it is released?
Part C: What will be the speed of the ball, in meters per second, when it reaches the bottom?
Part D: Does replacing the ball by a steel sphere of mass 0.75kg at the end increase the maximum speed?
Nick is riding a rollercoaster at wonderland. He starts at the top of a hill 25 m above theground with a velocity of zero. The roller coaster moves down the hill and up a loop.The velocity of the coaster at the top of the loop is 7 m/s. How high is the loop if thecoaster is 70% efficient.
A roller coaster is moving at 13 m/s at the top of the first hill (h= 53 m). Ignoring friction and air resistance, how high will the roller coaster be when moving at 17 m/s on the top of the top of a subsequent hill?

A spring has a natural length of 30 cm. If a 29-N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 36 cm, how much work W is required to stretch it from 30 cm to 33 cm? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)W = J Find the work W done if a constant force of 95 lb is used to pull a cart a distance of 200 ft.W = ft-lbarrow_forward
- Suppose you lift a 25 kg box by a height of 1.0 m. How much work do you do in lifting the box? Instead of lifting the box straight up, suppose you push it up a 1.0 m high ramp that makes a 30 degree angle with the horizontal, as shown in (Figure 1). Being clever, you choose a ramp with no friction. How much force is required to push the box straight up the slope at a constant speed? How long is the ramp? Use your force and distance results to calculate the work you do in pushing the box up the ramp.arrow_forward1. The diagram to the right is a section of roller coaster at an amusement park. The mass of the car and the riders is 110kg and the motion of the car on the track can be considered frictionless. At point A, the car is 5m above the lowest point on the track (point B) and is moving at 8.5m/s. (a) How fast is the car moving at point B?
