- In Chapter 5 we will define the center of mass of an object The center of mass moves with constant acceleration when constant forces act on the object A gymnast jumps straight up, with her center of mass moving at 2.80 m/s as she leaves the ground. How high above this point is her center of mass (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, (c) 0.300 s, and (d) 0.500 s thereafter?arrow_forwardAn astronaut in her space suit has a total mass of 87.0 kg, including suit and oxygen tank. Her tether line loses its attachment to her spacecraft while shes on a spacewalk. Initially at rest with respect to her spacecraft, she throws her 12.0-kg oxygen tank away from her spacecraft with a speed of 8.00 m/s to propel herself back toward it (Fig. P6.29). (a) Determine the maximum distance she can be from the craft and still return within 2.00 min (the amount of time the air in her helmet remains breathable), (b) Explain in terms of Newtons laws of motion why this strategy works. Figure P6.29arrow_forwardAs shown in Figure CQ5.22, student A, a 55-kg girl, sits on one chair with metal runners, at rest on a classroom floor. Student B, an 80-kg boy, sits on an identical chair. Both students keep their feet off the floor. A rope runs from student As hands around a light pulley and then over her shoulder to the hands of a teacher standing on the floor behind her. The low-friction axle of the pulley is attached to a second rope held by student B. All ropes run parallel to the chair runners. (a) If student A pulls on her end of the rope, will her chair or will Bs chair slide on the floor? Explain why. (b) If instead the teacher pulls on his rope end, which chair slides? Why this one? (c) If student B pulls on his rope, which chair slides? Why? (d) Now the teacher ties his end of the rope to student As chair. Student A pulls on the end of the rope in her hands. Which chair slides and why? Figure CQ5.22arrow_forward
- Balancing carefully, three boys inch out onto a horizontal tree branch above a pond, each planning to dive in separately. The third boy in line notices that the branch is barely strong enough to support them. He decides to jump straight up and land back on the branch to break it, spilling all three into the pond. When he starts to carry out his plan, at what precise moment does the branch break? Explain. Suggestion: Pretend to be the third boy and imitate what he does in slow motion. If you are still unsure, stand on a bathroom scale and repeat the suggestion.arrow_forwardConstruct Your Own Problem Consider an astronaut in deep space cut free from her space ship and needing to get back to it. The astronaut has a few packages that she can throw away to move herself toward the ship. Construct a problem in which you calculate the time it takes her to get back by throwing all the packages at one time compared to throwing them one at a time. Among the things to be considered are the masses involved, the force she can exert on the packages through some distance, and the distance to the ship.arrow_forwardA 0.450-kg hammer is moving horizontally at 7.00 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail 1.00 cm into a board. Assume constant acceleration of the hammer-nail pair. a. Calculate the duration of the impact. b. What was the average force exerted on the nail?arrow_forward
- A boy coasts down a hill on a sled, reaching a level surface at the bottom with a speed of 7.00 m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the sleds runners and the snow is 0.050 0 and the boy and sled together weigh 600. N, how far does the sled travel on the level surface before coming to rest?arrow_forwardIntegrated Concepts A basketball player jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body 0.300 m and then accelerates through this distance by forcefully straightening his legs. This player leaves the floor with a vertical velocity sufficient to carry him 0.900 m above the floor. (a) Calculate his velocity when he leaves the floor. (b) Calculate his acceleration while he is straightening his legs. He goes from zero to the velocity found in part (a) in a distance of 0.300 m. (c) Calculate the force he exerts on the floor to do this, given that his mass is 110 kg.arrow_forward. A loaded gun is dropped on a frozen lake. The gun fires, with the bullet going horizontally in one direction and the gun sliding on the ice in the other direction. The bullet’s mass is 0.02 kg, and its speed is 300 m/s. If the gun’s mass is 1.2 kg, what is its speed?arrow_forward
- A skater of mass 45.0 kg standing on ice throws a stone of mass 7.65 kg with a speed of 20.9 m/s in a horizontal direction. Find the distance over which the skater will move in the opposite direction if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skater and the ice is 0.03.arrow_forwardHow much fuel would be needed for a 1000-kg rocket (this is its mass with no fuel) to take off from Earth and reach 1000 m/s in 30 s? The exhaust speed is 1000 m/s.arrow_forwardOne hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large enough to be detected by radar, but there are far greater numbers of very small objects, such as flakes of paint. Calculate the force exerted by a 0.100-mg chip of paint that strikes a spacecraft window at a relative speed of 4.00103m/s , given the collision lasts 6.00108s .arrow_forward
