This will be an essay question on the exam. You will be expected to answer using the RACE format. Mass and weight are often confused in physics. Compare and contrast these two terms.
If a physics book is measured to be 20.28 cm wide, 28 cm tall, and 2.6 cm deep, what is the volume with the proper units? Sig figs problem. (If needing scientific notation, use E. Write the power with a ^)
(a)
A person walks 2.3 km north and then 3.8 km west. What is their net displacement (magnitude and direction)? (Don't forget compass direction and write out the word "degrees")
(a)
A car is traveling at 20.0 m/s and is accelerated uniformly at the rate of 1.6 m/s² for 6.8 s. What is its final speed? (Don't forget the units)
(a)
Starting from rest, a rocket is accelerated at the uniform rate of 18 m/s² for 5.0 s. What is the rocket’s displacement?
(a)
A stone falls for 8.0 s. Assuming that there is no air resistance and that the stone started from rest, what is the speed of the stone now? (Don't forget the units)
(a)
A student drops a rock from a 120 m high bridge. If we neglect air resistance, what is the maximum speed the rock can attain? (Don't forget the units)
(a)
What net force is required to accelerate a 1500 kg car from 10.0 m/s to 30.0 m/s in 10.0 s? (If writing in scientific notation, use E format and don't forget the units)
(a)
A force of 125 N is used to lift an 8.0 kg rock. Calculate the rock’s upward acceleration. (Don't forget units and use ^ for exponents)
(a)
A force of 85 N keeps a 25 kg object sliding at the constant velocity of 8.0 m/s. What is the coefficient of friction?
(a)
A box is pulled by two concurrent forces. One force is 150 N, the other is 210 N. If the angle between the forces is 63°, find the magnitude and direction of the resultant. Use the 150 N force as the point of reference. (Write out the word "degrees")
(a)
A 65 kg block sits on a frictionless ramp that forms an angle of 38° with the horizontal. What is the net force on the block?
(a)
A projectile is fired horizontally at 32 m/s. If the projectile drops a vertical distance of 0.67 m, calculate the horizontal displacement.
(a)
If a 0.25 kg mass is rotated around on a 0.75 m string at a rate of 1.5 revolutions per second, calculate the centripetal force.
(a)
Two asteroids are separated by 3.2 × 10⁵ m. The first asteroid has a mass of 1.65 × 10⁸ kg, and the second one has a mass of 5.78 × 10⁸ kg. What is the gravitational force between them? (Use E for scientific notation)
(a)
Mars orbits the Sun in 1.88 years and has an orbital radius of 2.28 × 10¹¹ m. It takes Pluto 76 years to orbit the Sun. What is the radius of Pluto’s orbit? (use E for scientific notation)
(a)
