9. A block is sliding on a frictionless surface which includes a bump. The bump is 0.50 m in height and when the block reaches the top of the bump, it will momentarily be moving in a circle of radius 2.00 m. What is the maximum speed that the block can have as it approaches the bump so that it will not leave the surface? 0.5 m 2.0 m

A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure CQ7.5. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) At what point does the bob have non-zero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (b) At what point does the bob have nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) At what point does the bob have both nonzero tangential and radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? Figure CQ7.5
A cyclist rides a bicycle with a wheel radius of 0.500 m across campus. A piece of plastic on the front rim makes a clicking sound every time it passes through the fork. If the cyclist counts 320 clicks between her apartment and the cafeteria, how far has she traveled? (a) 0.50 km (b) 0.80 km (c) 1.0 km (d) 1.5 km (e) 1.8 km
A string under a tension of 50.0 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.50 m at a speed of 20.4 m/s on a fricitonless surface as shown in Figure P6.25. As the string is pulled in, the speed of the rock increases. When the string on the table is 1.00 m long and the speed of the rock is 51.0 m/s, the string breaks. What is the breaking strength, in newtons, of the string? Figure P6.25
1) A boy releases his 2.0 kg toy, from rest, at the top of a sliding-pond inclined at 20o above the horizontal. What will the toy's speed be after sliding 4.0 m along the sliding-pond? The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. 2) A race car, traveling at a constant speed of 50 m/s, drives around a circular track of radius 250 m. What angular acceleration does it experience?
A 0.1 kg ball is attached to a string and whirled around in a circle overhead. The string breaks if the force on it exceeds 60 N. What is the maximum speed the ball can have when the radius of the circle is 1 m?
A kid whirls a rock of mass 0.5 kg in a vertical circle of radius 0.80 m. (a) What is the minimum speed of the rock at the top of the circle such that the rope does not go slack? (b) What is the speed of the rock at the bottom of the circle if the tension in the rope is 17.0 N?
A distant planet has a mass of 5.00 x 1023 kg and a radius of 6.00 x 106 m. Someone is standing on the surface of the planet and throws a rock straight up with initial speed of 7.0 m/s. What is the maximum hight reached by the rock above the point from where it was thrown?
A certain string can withstand a maximum tension of 40 N without breaking. A child ties a 0.37 kg stone to one end and, holding the other end, whirls the stone in a vertical circle of radius 0.91 m, slowly increasing the speed until the string breaks. (a) Where is the stone on its path when the string breaks? (b) What is the speed of the stone as the string breaks?
A 0.6 kg ball moves in a vertical circle on a 1m long string. If the speed at the top is 3.80 m/s, then the speed at the bottom will be 7.53 m/s. (a)What is the tension in the string when the ball is at the top? (b)What is the tension in the string when the ball is at the bottom
A vehicle is zooming along a very hilly stretch of road. First it goes over a hump in this road then downhill through an empty ditch before climbing back uphill as it ascends from the ditch and climbs up the bank.
