Figure P7.45 shows a picture of American astronaut Clay Anderson experiencing weightlessness on board the International Space Station. a. Most people have the misconception that a person in a spacecraft is weightless because he or she is no longer affected by gravity. Show that this premise cannot be true by computing the gravitational field of the Earth at an altitude of 200 km the typical altitude of a spacecraft in orbit. Compare this result with the gravitational field on the surface of the Earth. b. Why would astronauts in orbit experience weightlessness even if they are experiencing a gravitational field (and therefore a gravitational force)?
A roller-coaster vehicle has a mass of 505 kg when fully loaded with passengers (see figure). (a) If the vehicle has a speed of 17.0 m/s at point A, what is the force of the track on the vehicle at this point? N(b) What is the maximum speed the vehicle can have at point B in order for gravity to hold it on the track? m/s
Mark swings a bucket filled with 2.5 kg of water over his head. The length of his arm is 0.52 meters. (a) What is the normal force of the bucket on the water when the bucket is over his head if Marknswings the bucket with a speed of 3 m/s? (b) What is the minimum speed that he has to swing the bucket so that the water doesn't fall on his head?
A 47,700 N car is traveling a 25 m/s. The brakes are applied suddenly, and the car slides to a stop. The average braking force between the tires and the road is 7100 N. How far will the car slide once the brakes are applied?
A roller-coaster vehicle has a mass of 505 kg when fully loaded with passengers (see figure).

N (b) What is the maximum speed (in m/s) the vehicle can have at point B in order for gravity to hold it on the track? m/s
1.) You know your mass is 64 kgkg , but when you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator, it says your mass is 87 kgkg . What is the acceleration of the elevator? Express your answer using three significant figures and include the appropriate units. a=__________ ____________ In which direction is the acceleration of the elevator? upward or downward 2.) In the high jump, the kinetic energy of an athlete is transformed into gravitational potential energy without the aid of a pole. With what minimum speed must athlete leave the ground in order to lift his center of mass 1.85 mm and cross the bar with a speed of 0.85 m/sm/s ? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. v=_________ ___________
A physic professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle. The takeoff ramp was inclined at 53.0˚, the river was 40 m wide, and the far bank was 15.0 m lower that the top of the ramp. The river itself was 100 m below the ramp. (a) What should his speed have been at the top of the ramp for him to have just made it to the edge of the far bank? (b) If his speed was only half the value found in (a), where did he land? Calculate this new horizontal distance.
A 5.0 kg mass hanging from a spring scale is slowly lowered onto a vertical spring, as shown. The scale reads in newtons.a. What does the spring scale read just before the mass touches the lower spring?b. The scale reads 20 N when the lower spring has been compressed by 2.0 cm. What is the value of the spring constant for the lower spring?c. At what compression distance will the scale read zero?
Calculate the force (in N) needed to bring a 1050 kg car to rest from a speed of 80.0 km/h in a distance of 100 m (a fairly typical distance for a non-panic stop).

An airplane slows to a stop as it moves along the runway. Its mass is 3.50 x 105 kg, its speed is 75.0 m/s at the instant the plane lands on the runway and the force to slow the airplane is 7.25 x 105 N. a) What is its speed 10.0 seconds after the plane lands on the runway? b) How far has it traveled in this time?
Calculate the force needed to bring a 900 kg car to rest from a speed of 90.0 km/h in a distance of 110 m (a fairly typical distance for a nonpanic stop).N(b) Suppose instead the car hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force exerted on the car and compare it with the force found in part (a), i.e. find the ratio of the force in part(b) to the force in part(a).(force in part (b) / force in part (a))
The IKAROS spacecraft, launched in 2010, was designed to test the feasibility of solar sails for spacecraft propulsion. These large, ultralight sails are pushed on by the force of light from the sun, so the spacecraft doesn’t need to carry any fuel. The force on IKAROS’s sails was measured to be 1.12 mN. If this were the only force acting on the 290 kg spacecraft, by how much would its speed increase after 6 months of flight?
