has more of its mass distributed towards the center.

In SI units, what is the change in the magnitude of the momentum of a 1196 kg car that accelerates uniformly along a straight line from a speed of 9 m/s to a speed of 16 m/s in 6 s? Enter an integer.

i = (1996 kg)(9 m/s) = 10764 f = (1996 kg)(16 m/s) = 19136 19136 - 10764 = 8372

The SI units for viscosity are:

kg/(m-s)

Rockets receive their forward propulsion through

pushing against the exhaust.

Dimples on a golf ball hit without spin

reduce drag.

It is correct to say that impulse is equal to:

the change in momentum

After clearing the bar on a high jump, you land softly on a giant mattress. Landing on a mattress is more comfortable than landing on a sand heap of equal size because

the force the mattress exerts on you to stop your descend is much less than the force the sand heap would exert on you.

A beaker is filled with water to the rim. Gently you place a toy duck in the beaker and some of the water spills out. The duck floats. The weight of the beaker with the duck floating in it is

the same as its weight before adding the duck.

Suppose you have an aquarium. You have a solid plastic decoration and a rock of about the same volume but the rock has twice the mass. Both are totally submerged in the water. The buoyant force on the plastic object is about

the same as that on the rock.

A scuba diver descends to a depth of 20 m. At that depth, the pressure is approximately

three times atmospheric pressure

A bicycle's wheels have a radius of 33 cm. The bicycle is traveling at a speed of 6.5 m/s. What is the angular speed of the front tire?

v=wr w=v/r v=6.5 r=33 cm= .33 m 6.5/.33 m= 19.7 radian/sec

For a smooth sphere with a 12 cm diameter thrown through air (air density of 1.25 kg/m3, air viscosity 1.83*10-5 Pa-s), what is the speed (in cm/s) when the Reynolds number is 4036?

velocity = ((4036)(1.83 * 10-5))/((1.25)(12/100)) X 100 = 49.2 cm/s

Two carts A and B are moving towards each other as shown in the diagram. They collide and come to rest at the point of impact. From this observation we can conclude that the carts

were moving with momenta equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Suppose you have a very long straw that can reach from a cup of water on the ground level to the top of a very tall building. When you use a pump to suck on the straw in order to bring water up,

you can bring the water up to only a maximum height in the straw, when the pressure of the water column is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure.

The graph shows the acceleration of a cart with mass m = 0.555 kg, moving initially with constant speed, as a function of time, as a force F = ma stops the cart. Estimate the initial momentum of the cart in units of kg m/s.

~ 0.6

A wheel starts from rest with constant angular acceleration, α. It requires 3.1 s to make 40 revolutions. What is its angular acceleration, α, in s-2? Enter a number with one digit behind the decimal point.

ϴ = ωinitial + ½ acceleration * t2 ϴ = (40)(2π) → 80π 80π = 0 + ½ α (3.1)2 α = 52.3 s-2
