There are two forces on the 1.19 kg box in the overhead view of the figure but only one is shown. For F1 = 15.7 N, a = 14.7 m/s2, and θ = 34.1°, find the second force (a) in unit-vector notation and as (b) a magnitude and (c) a direction. (State the direction as a negative angle measured from the +x direction.)
In the very Dutch sport of Fierljeppen, athletes run up to a long pole and then use it to vault across a canal as shown in (Figure 1). At the very top of his arc, a 70 kg vaulter is moving at 2.9 m/s and is 5.5 m from the bottom end of the pole. What is the magnitude of the vertical force that the pole exerts on the vaulter? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

What would you say about that? A Yes, that’s correct. B Close, but it should be written S - mg = mv2/r. C Close, but it should be written mg - S = mv2/r.
PHY 203 Introduction to Physics NAME:(17.1) A block of mass M = 20 kg rides on a frictionless horizontal plane surface whichwe choose to describe as the xy-plane. The z-direction is vertical, perpendicular to thexy-plane, with positive z pointing upward. At t = 0 , two constant applied forces,→F1 = 8 , 4 , 10N and →F2 = 12 , 6 , 10Nsuddenly begin to act.

1. A ball of mass m1 and a block of mass m2 are attached by a lightweight cord that passes over a frictionless pulley of negligible mass, as shown in the figure. The block lies on a frictionless incline of angle theta. If theta becomes zero, what will happen? CHOICES: - The acceleration will be reversed in direction. - The velocity of m2 will keep on going. - m1 will start to move upward. - Nothing will change to the acceleration of the system. 2. s = 0.5*a*t^2 is a kinematic equation used to solve acceleration. What can we say about the initial velocity of the body when we use this equation? - The initial velocity is -9.8 m/s. - The initial velocity is 0. - The initial velocity is 9.8 m/s - Cannot be determined. 3. Using kinematics and dynamics equation used in the experiment (newton's second law of motion experiment), derive an expression to solve the time it takes for the heavier mass to reach the ground.
A box is hanging at rest from the ceiling by two ropes. The rope on the left (Rope 1) forms a 20degree angle with the ceiling and has a total tension of 25N. The box on the right (Rope 2) forms a 32degree angle with the ceiling and has a total tension of 15N. What is the weight of the box? What is the mass of the box? A person ties a 2.5 g ball to the end of a 200 cm rope and swings it around in a circle directly over their head. It takes the ball 1.2 seconds to move around the circle one time. What is the velocity of the ball? What is the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the ball? What is the magnitude of the centripetal force on the ball? What type of force provides the centripetal force?
