a runaway truck with failed brakes is moving downgrade at 130 km/h just before the driver steers the truck up a frictionless emergency escape ramp with an inclination of u = 15.The truck’s mass is 1.2 = 104 kg.

Does the minimum length L increase, decrease, or remain the same if (b) the truck’s mass is decreased and (c) its speed is decreased?
a nonuniform bar is suspended at rest in a horizontal position by two massless cords. One cord makes the angle u=36.9° with the vertical; the other makes the angle f =53.1° with the vertical.

A toy rocket operates by having a spring-loaded tube which ejects a small model rocket when released. The spring inside has a spring constant k = 625N/m, the rocket has a mass of 0.100 kg, and the maximum compression of the spring is 0.18 m. Consider the system of the rocket, spring, and the earth. Consider the interval of time between t1, when the rocket is released from the point of maximum spring compression, and t2, the moment when the spring is fully released and the rocket leaves the launcher. List below the types of energy that are changing during this interval and whether the changes are positive or negative. Please explain how you know.

A certain force F has a moment of 18Q N-m clockwise about point O and 9T N-m counterclockwise about point B. If its moment about point A is zero, determine the magnitude and direction of the force. Also, determine the x-intercept of the force.

We watch two identical astronomical bodies A and B, each of mass m, fall toward each other from rest because of the gravitational force on each from the other. Their initial center-to-center separation is Ri. Assume that we are in an inertial reference frame that is stationary with respect to the center of mass of this twobody system. Use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy (Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui) to find the following when the centerto- center separation is 0.5Ri : (a) the total kinetic energy of the system, (b) the kinetic energy of each body, (c) the speed of each body relative to us, and (d) the speed of body B relative to body A. Next assume that we are in a reference frame attached to body A (we ride on the body). Now we see body B fall from rest toward us. From this reference frame, again use Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui to find the following when the center-to-center separation is 0.5Ri : (e) the kinetic energy of body B and (f) the speed of body B relative to body A.

A system consists of the following masses loacted in the xy- plane: 4.5 kg at the point (0,5), 7.5 kg at the point (3,8) and 5.5 at the point (-3, -6). Find the distance from the origin to the center of mass.
A massless spring of constant k = 78.4 N/m is fixed on the left side of a level track. A block of mass m = 0.50 kg is pressed against the spring and compresses it a distance d, as in Figure P7.74. The block (initially at rest) is then released and travels toward a circular loop-the-loop of radius R = 1.5 m. The entire track and the loop-the-loop are frictionless, except for the section of track between points A and B. Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the track along AB is k = 0.30 and that the length of AB is 2.5 m, determine the minimum compression d of the spring that enables the block to just make it through the loop-the-loop at point C. Hint: The force exerted by the track on the block will be zero if the block barely makes it through the loop-the-loop. Figure P7.74
