Special Relativity

The theory of special relativity discusses how space and time are related to objects traveling along a straight line at a constant speed. Simply stated, as an object reaches the speed of light, its mass becomes infinite and it is unable to move faster than light. This interstellar speed limit has been the topic of much debate in astronomy, and also in science fiction when people consider how to fly over large distances.

Repeat the preceding problem, but this time, suppose that the work done by air resistance cannot be ignored. Let the work done by the air resistance when the skier goes from A to B along the given hilly path be —2000 J. The work done by air resistance is negative since the air resistance acts in the opposite direction to the displacement. Supposing the mass of the skier is 50 kg, what is the speed of the skier at point B ?

The Flybar high-tech pogo stick is advertised as being capable of launching jumpers up to 6 ft. The ad says that the minimum weight of a jumper is 120 lb and the maximum weight is 250 lb. It also says that the pogo stick uses a patented system of elastometric rubber springs that provides up to 1200 lbs of thrust, something common helical spring sticks simply cannot achieve (rubber has 10 times the energy storing capability of steel). a. Use Figure P8.32 to estimate the maximum compression of the pogo sticks spring. Include the uncertainty in your estimate. b. What is the effective spring constant of the elastometric rubber springs? Comment on the claim that rubber has 10 times the energy-storing capability of steel. c. Check the ads claim that the maximum height a jumper can achieve is 6 ft.
A block of mass 0.500 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x (Fig. P7.79). The force constant of the spring is 450 N/m. When it is released, the block travels along a frictionless, horizontal surface to point , the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1.00 m, and continues to move up the track. The blocks speed at the bottom of the track is = 12.0 m/s, and the block experiences an average friction force of 7.00 N while sliding up the track. (a) What is x? (b) If the block were to reach the top of the track, what would be its speed at that point? (c) Does the block actually reach the top of the track, or does it fall off before reaching the top?
