- Physics Review A soap bubble hovers motionlessly in the air. If the soap bubbles mass, including the air inside it, is 2.00 104 kg determine the magnitude of the upward force acting on it. (See Section 4.5.)arrow_forwardThe distinction between mass and weight was discovered after Jean Richer transported pendulum clocks from Paris, France, to Cayenne, French Guiana, in 1671. He found that they quite systematically ran slower in (Cayenne than in Paris. The effect was reversed when the clocks returned to Paris. How much weight would a 90.0 kg person lose in traveling from Paris, where g = 9.809 5 m/s2, to Cayenne, where g = 9.780 8 m/s2? (We will consider how the free-fall acceleration influences the period of a pendulum in Section 15.5.)arrow_forwardUsually, we do not walk or even stand on a lightweight boat or raft because of the danger of falling into the water. If you have ever stepped off a small boat onto a dock, however, you have probably noticed that the boat moves away from the dock as you step toward the dock or out of the boat. A heavy dog running on a long lightweight raft presents a similar situation. At first, the raft and the dog are at rest with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38A) so that vi=0. The dog then runs on top of the raft at vd=vd with respect to the water (Fig. P10.38B). The dog has twice the mass of the raft. Find an expression for the velocity of the raft after the dog began running. FIGURE P10.38arrow_forward
- The culling tool on a lathe is given two displacements, one of magnitude 4 cm and one of magnitude 3 cm, in each one of five situations (a) through (e) diagrammed in Figure OQ3.4. Rank these situations according to the magnitude of the total displacement of the tool, putting the situation with the greatest resultant magnitude first. If the total displacement is the same size in two situations, give those letters equal ranks.arrow_forwardReview. A rifle bullet with a mass of 12.0 g traveling toward the right at 260 m/s strikes a large hag of sand and penetrates it to a depth of 23.0 cm. Determine the magnitude and direction of the friction force (assumed constant) that acts on the bullet.arrow_forwardA person of mass m stands on a rope ladder that is hanging from a freely floating balloon of mass M. The balloon is initially at rest with respect to the ground. (The buoyant force on the personballoon system is countering the force of gravity.) a. In what direction will the balloon move if the person starts to climb the rope ladder at constant velocity v relative to the ladder? b. At what speed will the balloon move if the person starts to climb the rope ladder at constant velocity v relative to the ladder?arrow_forward
- Rank the following three collisions in terms of the extent of damage that the car would experience. Explain your reasons for ranking the collisions as you did. (a) A car going 10 m/s striking an identical car that was stationary on level ground. (b) A car going 10 m/s running into an immovable concrete wall. (c) A head-on collision between identical cars, boom going 10 m/s.arrow_forwardElisha Graves Otis invented the elevator brake in the mid-1800s, making it possible to build tall skyscrapers with fast elevators. Todays skyscrapers are a large fraction of a mile tall; for example. Taipei 101 in Taiwan has 101 stories and is 515 m (0.32 miles) tall. The top speed of the elevator in the Taipei 101 tower is roughly three times greater than the ascent rate of a commercial jet airplane. The position and time data in the table are based on such an elevator. a. Working in SI units, make a position-versus-time graph for the elevator. (You may wish to use a spreadsheet program.) b. Describe the motion of the elevator in words. c. Find the highest speed of the elevator. When is the elevator going at this speed? d. What sort of considerations would the engineers need to make to ensure the comfort of the passengers?arrow_forwardScurrilous con artists have been known to represent gold-plated tungsten ingots as pure gold and sell them to the greedy at prices much below gold value but deservedly far above the cost of tungsten. With what accuracy must you be able to measure the mass of such an ingot in and out of water to tell that it is almost pure tungsten rather than pure gold?arrow_forward
- As it plows a parking lot, a snowplow pushes an ever-growing pile of snow in front of it. Suppose a car moving through the air is similarly modeled as a cylinder of area A pushing a growing disk of air in front of it. The originally stationary air is set into motion at the constant speed v of the cylinder as shown in Figure P8.32. In a time interval t, a new disk of air of mass m must be moved a distance v t and hence must be given a kinetic energy 12(m)v2. Using this model, show that the cars power loss owing to air resistance is 12Av3 and that the resistive force acting on the car is 12Av2, where is the density of air. Compare this result with the empirical expression 12DAv2 for the resistive force. Figure P8.32arrow_forwardAn experiment is performed on a puck on a level air hockey table, where friction is negligible. A constant horizontal force is applied to the puck, and the pucks acceleration is measured. Now the same puck is transported far into outer space, where both friction and gravity are negligible. The same constant force is applied to the puck (through a spring scale that stretches the same amount), and the pucks acceleration (relative to the distant stars) is measured. What is the pucks acceleration in outer space? (a) It is somewhat greater than its acceleration on the Earth. (b) It is the same as its acceleration on the Earth. (c) It is less than its acceleration on the Earth. (d) It is infinite because neither friction nor gravity constrains it. (e) It is very large because acceleration is inversely proportional to weight and the pucks weight is very small but not zero.arrow_forwardA ball is suspended by a string that is tied to a fixed point above a wooden block standing on end. The ball is pulled back as shown in Figure 0Q9.16 and released. In trial A, the ball rebounds elastically from the block. In trial B, two-sided tape causes the ball to stick to the block. In which case is the ball more likely to knock the block over? (a) It is more likely in trial A. (b) It is more likely in trial B. (c) It makes no difference. (d) It could be either case, depending on other factors. Figure 0Q9.16arrow_forward
