A small but dense 2.0-kg stone is attached to one end of a very light rod that is 1.2 m long. The other end of the rod is attached to a frictionless pivot. The rod is raised until it is vertical, with the stone above the pivot. The rod is released and the stone moves in a vertical circle with no air resistance.

11 m/s at 76° with respect to the original direction of the lighter car

A force produces power P by doing work W in a time T. What power will be produced by a force that does six times as much work in half as much time?

The horizontal force that an animal exerts on a large fruit it has found is observed and is shown in the graph in the figure. If the fruit was initially sliding on the frictionless ground at 5.5 cm/s when the animal first grabbed it, by how much did the animal change its kinetic energy during this encounter?

25 J

Two dogs, Rover and Fido, run on a level frictionless surface. Rover runs eastward with a momentum of 24 kg . m/s, and Fido runs northward with momentum 10 kg . m/s. They make a sudden perfectly inelastic collision. What is the magnitude of their combined momentum after the collision?

A very small 51-g steel ball is released from rest and falls vertically onto a steel plate. The ball strikes the plate and is in contact with it for 0.50 ms. The ball rebounds elastically and returns to its original height. The total time interval for a round trip is 3.00 s. What is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the ball by the plate during contact with the plate?

3000 N

9.0 m

A 4.0 kg object is moving with speed 2.0 m/s. A 1.0 kg object is moving with speed 4.0 m/s. Both objects encounter the same constant braking force, and are brought to rest. Which object travels the greater distance before stopping?

Both objects travel the same distance

A firecracker explodes in midair and breaks up into many fragments. Which of the following statements are true regarding conditions immediately before and immediately after the explosion: I. The total momentum of the fragments is equal to the original momentum of the firecracker. II. The total kinetic energy of the fragments is equal to the original kinetic energy of the firecracker.

Statement I only

A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball, which is initially stationary. Which of the following statements is true? (There could be more than one correct choice.)

The magnitude of the change of the momentum of the 5-kg ball is equal to the magnitude of the change of momentum of the 10-kg ball. The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is greater than that of the 10-kg ball.

You throw a baseball straight up. Compare the sign of the work done by gravity while the ball goes up with the sign of the work done by gravity while it goes down.

The work is negative on the way up and positive on the way down

only the mechanical energy (kinetic plus potential) of the pack

Consider two less-than-desirable options. In the first you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into an identical car also going 30 mph. In the second option you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into a stationary brick wall. In neither case does your car bounce back from the thing it hits, and the collision time is the same in both cases. Which of these two situations would result in the greater impact force on your car?

the force would be the same in both cases
