A stock person at the local grocery store has a job consisting of the following five segments: (1) picking up boxes of tomatoes from the stockroom floor (2) accelerating to a comfortable speed (3) carrying the boxes to the tomato display at constant speed (4) decelerating to a stop (5) lowering the boxes slowly to the floor. During which of the five segments of the job does the stock person do positive work on the boxes?

(1) and (2)

You carry a 7.0 kg bag of groceries 1.2 m above the level floor at a constant velocity of 75 cm/s across a room that is 2.3m room. How much work do you do on the bag in the process?

0 J

How long will it take a 7.08 hp motor to lift a 250 kg beam directly upward at constant velocity from the ground to a height of 45.0 m? Assume frictional forces are negligible. (1 hp = 746 W)

20.9 s

A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 17.0° and its length is 30.0 m, find the speed of the block as it reaches the bottom of the ramp, assuming it started sliding from rest at the top.

13.1 m/s

A car on a roller coaster starts at zero speed at an elevation above the ground of 26 m. It coasts down a slope, and then climbs a hill. The top of the hill is at an elevation of 16 m. What is the speed of the car at the top of the hill? Neglect any frictional effects.

14 m/s

A child pulls on a wagon with a horizontal force of 75 N. If the wagon moves horizontally a total of 42 m in 3.0 min, what is the average power generated by the child?

18 W

A spring stretches by 21.0 cm when a 135 N object is attached. What is the weight of a fish that would stretch the spring by 31 cm?

199 N

A car needs to generate 75.0 hp in order to maintain a constant velocity of 27.3 m/s on a flat road. What is the magnitude of the total resistive force acting on the car (due to friction, air resistance, etc.)? (1 hp = 746 W)

2.05 × 10^3 N

A force on a particle depends on position such that F(x) = (3.00 N/m2)x2 + (6.00 N/m)x for a particle constrained to move along the x-axis. What work is done by this force on a particle that moves from x = 0.00 m to x = 2.00 m?

20.0 J

A worker lifts a 20.0-kg bucket of concrete from the ground up to the top of a 20.0-m tall building. The bucket is initially at rest, but is traveling at 4.0 m/s when it reaches the top of the building. What is the minimum amount of work that the worker did in lifting the bucket?

4.08 kJ

A 60.0-kg person drops from rest a distance of 1.20 m to a platform of negligible mass supported by an ideal stiff spring of negligible mass. The platform drops 6.00 cm before the person comes to rest. What is the spring constant of the spring?

4.12 × 10^5 N/m

An athlete stretches a spring an extra 40.0 cm beyond its initial length. How much energy has he transferred to the spring, if the spring constant is 52.9 N/cm?

423 J

A crane lifts a 425 kg steel beam vertically a distance of 117 m. How much work does the crane do on the beam if the beam accelerates upward at 1.8 m/s2? Neglect frictional forces.

5.8 × 10^5 J

Two stones, one of mass m and the other of mass 2m, are thrown directly upward with the same velocity at the same time from ground level and feel no air resistance. Which statement about these stones is true?

At its highest point, the heavier stone will have twice as much gravitational potential energy as the lighter one because it is twice as heavy.

Two identical balls are thrown directly upward, ball A at speed v and ball B at speed 2v, and they feel no air resistance. Which statement about these balls is correct?

Ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energy.

Block 1 and block 2 have the same mass, m, and are released from the top of two inclined planes of the same height making 30° and 60° angles with the horizontal direction, respectively. If the coefficient of friction is the same in both cases, which of the blocks is going faster when it reaches the bottom of its respective incline?

Block 2 is faster.

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.

Two men, Joel and Jerry, push against a wall. Jerry stops after 10 min, while Joel is able to push for 5.0 min longer. Compare the work they do.

Neither of them does any work.

A girl throws a stone from a bridge. Consider the following ways she might throw the stone. The speed of the stone as it leaves her hand is the same in each case, and air resistance is negligible. Case A: Thrown straight up. Case B: Thrown straight down. Case C: Thrown out at an angle of 45° above horizontal. Case D: Thrown straight out horizontally. In which case will the speed of the stone be greatest when it hits the water below?

The speed will be the same in all cases.

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.

True

A ball drops some distance and gains 30 J of kinetic energy. Do NOT ignore air resistance. How much gravitational potential energy did the ball lose?

more than 30 J

Two objects, one of mass m and the other of mass 2m, are dropped from the top of a building. When they hit the ground

the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

Consider a plot of the displacement (x) as a function of the applied force (F) for an ideal elastic spring. The slope of the curve would be

the reciprocal of the spring constant.
