At the start of a race, a four-man bobsled team pushes their sled as fast as they can along a 50 m flat
starting stretch. The net force that the four men together apply to the 325 kg bobsled is 964.079 N directed
at 15 degrees below the horizontal. As they push, 60 N of kinetic friction opposes them. What is the speed
of the sled right before the team jumps on the sled?
A bowling ball m = 1.7 kg is dropped from a height h. It falls a distance, d, before encountering a large

The unstretched length of the wire is 1.5 m, and its cross-sectional area is 1.3 x 10-5 m². The pulley is frictionless and massless. When the crates are acceler- ating, determine the change in length of the wire. Ignore the mass of the wire. 3.0 kg 5.0 kg Problem 88arrow_forward
- A tripod holding a nozzle, which directs a 5-cmdiameter stream of water from a hose. The nozzle mass is 10 kg when filled with water. The tripod is rated to provide 1800 N of holding force. A firefighter was standing 60 cm behind the nozzle and was hit by the nozzle when the tripod suddenly failed and released the nozzle. You have been hired as an accident reconstructionist and, after testing the tripod, have determined that as water flow rate increased, it did collapse at 1800 N. In your final report you must state the water velocity and the flow rate consistent with the failure and the nozzle velocity when it hit the firefighter. For simplicity, ignore pressure and momentum effects in the upstream portion of the hose.arrow_forward6. A block of mass 2 kg is free to move along the x-axis.

- A segment of DNA is put in place and stretched. Figure P7.82 shows a graph of the force exerted on the DNA as a function of the displacement of the stage. Based on this graph, which statement is the best interpretation of the DNA’s behavior over this range of displacements? The DNA (a) does not follow Hooke’s law, because its force constant increases as the force on it increases; (b) follows Hooke’s law and has a force constant of about 0.1 pN/nm; (c) follows Hooke’s law and has a force constant of about 10 pN/nm; (d) does not follow Hooke’s law, because its force constant decreases as the force on it increases.arrow_forward47.
