An air hockey table has dimensions as shown in the picture. 0.3m Usually, the air from the table acts to prevent the puck from slowing down after you hit it, but this table isn't working quite right. When a puck is placed anywhere on the table, it moves towards the right with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s². You need to test the table to decide if this small acceleration will interfere with the game. You put the puck 0.3m directly in front E 3. 2. and in the center of the near goal as shown and hit the puck with your paddle giving it an initial velocity of 10 m/s aimed at the center of the far goal. Draw a pictorial representation first (Tactics Box 1.5). Refer to the Problem Solving Strategies (General Pg21 and 2.1, 4.1) and Models 2.1, 2.2, and 4.1 for best Problem Solving Strategies. 1.3m A. How long will it take the puck to reach the far side of the table? B. Will the puck go into the goal? Justify your answer by finding the final x potions of the puck. C. What is the smallest initial velocity that would allow the puck to enter the goal?

A particle moves in a circle with a diameter of 120 cm. If its linear velocity is given by v = 4.5t where v is in mps and t is in s, find the radial, tangential and the resultant acceleration of the particle.
The elevator in an office building, starting from rest at the first floor, is accelerated 0.75 m/sec2 for 5 secs. It continues at constant velocity for 12 secs, more and is then stopped in 3 secs with constant deceleration. If the floors are 3.75 m apart, at what floor did the elevator stop?
My calculated value of acceleration is 12.2 m/s^2 when I drop the object from a height of 3 m. And I need help with the question that is in the attached image.
Modern roller coasters have vertical loops like the one shown in the figure. The radius of curvature is smaller at the top than on the sides so that the downward centripetal acceleration at the top will be greater than the acceleration due to gravity, keeping the passengers pressed firmly into their seats. Part (a) What is the speed of the roller coaster, in meters per second, at the top of the loop if the radius of curvature there is 15 m and the downward acceleration of the car is 1.3g? Note that g here is the acceleration due to gravity. Part (b) The beginning of this roller coaster is at the top of a high hill. If it started from rest at the top of this hill, how high, in meters, above the top of the loop is this initial starting point? You may assume there is no friction anywhere on the track. Part (c) If it actually starts 3.5 m higher than your answer to the previous part (yet still reaches the top of the loop with the same velocity), how much energy, in joules, did it lose…
A uniform drawbridge must be held at a 37° angle abovethe horizontal to allow ships to pass underneath. The drawbridge weighs45,000 N and is 14.0 m long. A cable is connected 3.5 m from thehinge where the bridge pivots (measured along the bridge) and pullshorizontally on the bridge to hold it in place. If the cable suddenly breaks, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the drawbridge just after the cable breaks?
This most likely is made to be a probelm about mx''+bx'+kx=f(t) m = mass b = friction k = spring constant 4. A mass weighing four pounds stretches a spring 24 in. Suppose the mass is atequilibrium and is set into motion with a velocity of 6 inches per second. The mass is in a mediumwhere friction is small, and we assume it is zero. Note that the acceleration due to gravity near theearth’s surface where the experiment takes place can be taken as 32 ft/s2.(a) Suppose that in addition to the conditions described above, a hammer strikes the mass everyπ/2 seconds starting at t = 0. A delta function with impulse of 1 pound-second models theforce of each blow to the mass. Find the function x(t) for the displacement from equilibrium infeet of the mass at time t in seconds. Express x(t) as a piecewise defined function without the use ofunit step or Heaviside functions and such that in each time window it is a different multiple of the samesinusoidal function.(b) Now assume the same spring-mass…

How many turns makes the same disc in point number one after one minute. If an external force does not affect the body, what does that mean? And if the body is in free fall, is its speed constant or variable, what is its acceleration equal, and how can the friction be reduced between the contact surfaces
A nozzle is designed to move a liquid from V1 velocity to V2 in a linear fashion. The linear relationship here is V = ax + b and a and b are constant.

In an experiment to test Newton’s second law of motion, we measure the acceleration of two masses (2 kg, and 3 kg.) which are attached to the two ends of a rope that passes over a pulley, as in an Atwood’s machine. What is the theoretical acceleration (a) if the pulley has no mass, (b) if the pulley has a mass of 0.5 kg.?

You want to move a heavy box with mass 30.0 kg across a carpeted floor. You pull hard on one of the edges of the box at an angle 30∘ above the horizontal with a force of magnitude 240 N, causing the box to move horizontally. The force of friction between the moving box and the floor has magnitude 41.5 N . Find both the x and y components of the acceleration of the box.? What is the box's acceleration just after it begins to move?
Zorch, an archenemy of Superman, decides to slow Earth’s rotation to once per 29 h by exerting a force parallel to the equator, opposing the rotation. Superman is not immediately concerned, because he knows Zorch can only exert a force of 4.15 × 107 N. For the purposes calculations in this problem you should treat the Earth as a sphere of uniform density even though it isn't. a. How long, in seconds, must Zorch push with this force to accomplish his goal? (This period gives Superman time to devote to other villains.)
