Your friend (mass 65.0 kg) is standing on the ice in the middle of a frozen pond. There is very little friction between her feet and the ice, so she is unable to walk. Fortunately, a light rope is tied around her waist and you stand on the bank holding the other end. You pull the rope for 3.00 s and accelerate your friend from rest to a speed of 6.00 m/s while you remain at rest. What is the average power supplied by the force you applied?

You hold a slingshot at arms length, pull the light elastic band back to your chin, and release it to launch a pebble horizontally with speed 200 cm/s. With the same procedure, you fire a bean with speed 600 cm/s. What is the ratio of the mass of the bean to the mass of the pebble? (a) 19 (b) 13 (c) 1 (d) 3(e) 9
An object of mass m is suspended from the top of a cart by a string of length L as in Figure P5.88a. The cart and object are initially moving to the right at a constant speed 0. The cart comes to rest after colliding and sticking to a bumper, as in Figure P5.88b, and the suspended object swings through an angle . (a) Show that the initial speed is 0=2gL(1cos). (b) If L = 1.20 m and = 35.0, find the initial speed of the cart (Hint: The force exerted by the string on the object docs no work on the object.) Figure P5.88a
A 10-m-long glider with a mass of 680 kg (including the passengers) is gliding horizontally through the air at 40 m/s when a 60 kg skydiver drops out by releasing his grip on the glider. What is the glider's speed just after the skydiver lets go?
A ? = 20.0 [kg] block slides down a ? = 35.0◦ incline as shown, leaving the end with a speed of ?? = 1.10 [m/s]. At the same time, a ? = 70.0 [kg] cart, whose top end is located h = 2.00 [m] below the end of the chute, moves to the left with a speed of ?? = 2.00 [m/s], and catches the block as it falls. Once the cart catches the block, both move with the same speed. You may ignore friction. A. What is the speed of the block just as it hits the cart? B. What is the velocity of the block-cart system after the cart catches the block? C. What's the change in energy of the cart and block immediately before and immediately after the collision?
A 1.00×104 kg railroad car is rolling at 3.00 m/sm/s when a 6000 kg load of gravel is suddenly dropped in. What is the car's speed just after the gravel is loaded? Express your answer with the appropriate units(m/s).
An 85 kg man lowers himself to the ground from a height of 10.0 m by holding onto a rope that runs over a frictionless pulley to a 65 kg sandbag. With what speed does the man hit the ground if he started from rest?
Spectators watch a bicycle stunt rider travel off the end of a 57.5° ramp, rise to the top of her trajectory and, at that instant, suddenly push her bike horizontally away from her so that she falls vertically straight down, reaching the ground 0.525 s later. How far (in m) from the rider does the bicycle land if the rider has a mass mrider = 58.4 kg and the bike has a mass mbike = 14.5 kg? Neglect air resistance and assume the ground is level. ?m
A 160 g baseball is thrown with a speed of 20 m/s. It is hit straight back toward the pitcher at a speed of 40 m/s. What is the maximum force that the bat exerts on the ball if the impulsive force registers at 0.60 milliseconds?
Holding a slingshot at arm's length, he pulls the light elastic band back to his chin and releases it to launch a stone horizontally with a speed of 200 cm/s. Using the same procedure, a bean is thrown with a speed of 600 cm/s. What is the ratio of the mass of the bean to the mass of the stone? a. 1/3 b. 3 c. 9 d. 1/9 e. 1
A 791 N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 9.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2 kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 9.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?
A rocket is moving away from the solar system at a speed of6.0 * 103 m/s. It fires its engine, which ejects exhaust with a speedof 3.0 * 103 m/s relative to the rocket. The mass of the rocket atthis time is 4.0 * 104 kg, and its acceleration is 2.0 m/s2. (a) What isthe thrust of the engine? (b) At what rate, in kilograms per second,is exhaust ejected during the firing?
Hi I am in physics I, and they have the problem: In a baseball game, the 145g ball reaches the batter with a speed of 15.0m/s. The batter hits the ball with a force as shown in exact oppositie direction. The peak force (F max) is 1500N. Find the ball speed right after the hit. It was solved like: J= mvf - mvi area=1/2*b8h J= area = 1500(6)/2 + 1500(2)/2 J=6000 J=6.0 N*s 6.0 N*s = (0.1 +5kg)vf - (0.145kg)(-15) solve for vf vf=26.38 I really don't understand where 0.1 came from. If you can just break down i bit how this is solve that would be great. Thanks!
