Chapter 6, Problem 43EAP
The piston of a machine exerts a constant force on a ball as it move horizontally through a distance of 15 cm. You use a motion detector to measure the speed of five different balls as they come off the piston; the data are shown in the table. Use theory to find two quantities that, when graphed, should give a straight line. Then use the graph to find the size of the piston's force.
| Mass (g) | Speed (m/s) |
| 200 | 9.4 |
| 400 | 6.3 |
| 600 | 5.2 |
| 800 | 4.9 |
| 100 | 4.0 |

1. Suppose you are in an enclosed boxcar, initially at rest on a track with no friction. You throw heavy darts at the front wall of the car which stick right into it. You MAY IGNORE DRAG FRICTION of the darts while they are in the air. Describe the motion of the cart.
Select one:
i) The cart does not move.
ii) The cart moves backwards while the darts are in the air and stops completely when the dart impacts the front wall.
iii) The cart moves backwards while the dart is in the air and slows down a bit but is still going backward slowly after the dart’s impact.
iv) The cart moves forward slowly.
v) The cart moves backwards while the dart is in the air and moves forwards slowly after impact.

- In a laboratory model of cars skidding to a stop, data are measured for four trials using two blocks. The blocks have identical masses but different coefficients of kinetic friction with a table: k = 0.2 and 0.8. Each block is launched with speed vi = 1 m/s and slides across the level table as the block comes to rest. This process represents the first two trials. For the next two trials, the procedure is repeated but the blocks are launched with speed vi = 2 m/s. Rank the four trials (a) through (d) according to the stopping distance from largest to smallest. If the stopping distance is the same in two cases, give them equal rank. (a) vi = 1 m/s, k = 0.2 (b) vi = 1 m/s, k = 0.8 (c) vi = 2 m/s, k = 0.2 (d) vi = 2 m/s, k = 0.8arrow_forwardIn a laboratory model of cars skidding to a stop, data are measured for four trials using two blocks.

If a 0.256-kg ball hits a 3.46-kg box and the ball and box slide a distance of 2.89 meters across a surface with a coefficient of friction of 0.419, then what is the pre-impact speed of the pitched ball?arrow_forwardAn Atwood's machine (see the figure below) consists of two masses: one of mass 1.43 kg and the other of mass 5.36 kg.
