. Two carts, one twice the mass of the other, experience the same force for the same time. What is their difference in momentum? What is their difference in kinetic energy? 2. A 12 g bullet is fired hori ontally into a !" g wooden block initially at rest on a hori ontal surface. After impact, the block slides #.$ m before coming to rest. %f the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is &."&, what was the speed of the bullet immediately before impact? '. A ball bounces upward from the ground with a speed of 1( m)s and hits a wall with a speed of 12 m)s. *ow high abo+e the ground does the ball hit the wall? %gnore air resistance. (. A 2&& g mass is attached to a spring of spring constant k. The spring is compressed 1$ cm from its e,uilibrium +alue. When released the mass reaches a speed of $ m)s. What is the spring constant -in .)m/? $. A '(0g bullet tra+eling at 12&m)s embeds itself in a wooden block on a smooth surface. The block then slides toward a spring and collides with it. The block compresses the spring -k11&& .)m/ a maximum of 1.2$ cm. 2alculate the mass of the block of wood. ". %f a force of '&&. is exerted upon a "& kg mass for ' seconds, how much impulse does the mass experience? #. An 3&0kg man and his car are suddenly accelerated from rest to a speed of $ m)s as a result of a rear0end collision. Assuming the time taken to be &.'s, find4 a/ the impulse on the man and b/ the a+erage force exerted on him by the back seat of his car. 3. An airplane propeller is rotating at 1!&& re+)min. a. 2ompute the propeller5s angular +elocity in rad)s. b. *ow long in seconds does it take for the propeller to turn through '&.& degrees? !. A disk with a 1.&0m radius reaches a maximum angular speed of 13 rad)s before it stops '& re+olutions after attaining the maximum speed. *ow long did it take the disk to stop? 1&. A net tor,ue of '" ..m acts on a wheel rotating about a fixed axis for " s. 6uring this time the angular speed of the wheel increases from & to 12 rad)s. The applied force is then remo+ed, and the wheel comes to rest in #$ s. a. What is the moment of inertia of the wheel? b. What is the magnitude of the frictional tor,ue? c. *ow many re+olutions does the wheel make?
