What force does a trampoline have to apply to a 45.0-kg gymnast to accelerate her straight up at 7.50 m/s2? Note that the answer is independent of the velocity of the gymnast—she can be moving either up or down, or be stationary.
A small sports car collides head-on with a massive truck. The greater impact force (in magnitude) acts on (a) the car, (b) the truck, (c) neither, the force is the same on both. Which vehicle undergoes the greater magnitude acceleration? (d) the car, (e) the truck, (f) the accelerations are the same.
A woman at an airport is towing her 20.0-kg suitcase at constant speed by pulling on a strap at an angle above the horizontal (Fig. 4.76). She pulls on the strap with a 35.0-N force, and the friction force on the suitcase is 20.0 N. (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the suitcase. (b) What angle does the strap make with the horizontal? (c) What is the magnitude of the normal force that the ground exerts on the suitcase? Figure P4.76
A 3.00-kg object undergoes an acceleration given by a=(2.00i+5.00j)m/s2. Find (a) the resultant force acting on the object and (b) the magnitude of the resultant force.
Jogging on hard surfaces with insufficiently padded shoes produces large forces in the feet and legs. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the force needed to stop the downward motion of a jogger's leg, if his leg has a mass of 13.0 kg, a speed of 6.00 m/s, and stops in a distance of 1.50 cm. (Be certain to include the weight of the 75.0-kg jogger's body.) (b) Compare this force with the weight of the jogger.
Two children, Raffi and John, sitting on sleds tied together with a massless rope, are being dragged across a frozen river by their playful Siberian husky Rex who is supplying a 112-N horizontal force (Fig. P5.78). The coefficient of friction between the sleds and the ice is 0.08, the combined mass of Raffi and his sled is 42.0 kg, and the combined mass of John and his sled is 51.0 kg. a. Draw a free-body diagram for each of the childsled systems. b. What is the acceleration of the system? c. What is the tension FT in the rope connecting the two sleds? FIGURE P5.78
When serving a tennis ball, a player hits the ball when its velocity is zero (at the highest point of a vertical toss). The racquet exerts a force of 540 N on the ball for 5.00 ms, giving it a final velocity of 45.0 m/s. Using these data, find the mass of the ball.
