DIRECTIONS: Answer each question in the space provided. 1. You drive your car down a steep hill, accelerating as you near the bottom. a. Draw a free body diagram and use labeled arrows to show all of the forces involved. 2. Use Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation to explain how to increase the gravitational force one object exerts on anather. 3. For each of Newton's three laws, explain what the law means AND give an example of when you see/experience that law in real life. a. Newton's 15t Law Example: b. Newton's 2" Law Example: c. Newton's 3 Law Example: 4. Determine whether your apparent weight would be lighter, heavier, or the same in each of the following situations. a. As aroller coaster slows down at the top of a hill. b. After that roller coaster has passed over the hill and is accelerating downwards. c. When an elevator first starts to accelerate upwards. DIRECTIONS: Write your answer on the lines provided. Show your work in the space below. Use significant figures. 5. The moon's gravity pulls on an astronaut with a force of 145.6 N. If the acceleration due to the moon's gravity is 1.6 m/s2, what is the mass of the astronaut? ANSWER 6. A 12000 g boulder is dropped from a cliff. a. How large is the force of gravity pulling on the bolder? ANSWER b. If the cliff is 34.2 m high, how long does it take for the bolder to hit the ground? ANSWER 7. A 25 kg dog and a 15 kg cat are playing tug-of-war with an elastic rope on a frictionless kitchen floor. If the acceleration of the cat towards the dog is +3.5 m/s2, what is the acceleration of the dog towards the cat? ANSWER 8. When catching a baseball, the ball enters the glove with a velocity of +25.5 m/s. It takes about 0.0045 s to come to a stop. The mass of the baseball is 0.15 kg. a. What is the baseball's acceleration? ANSWER b. What are the magnitude and direction of the force acting on the baseball? ANSWER c. What is the magnitude and direction of the force acting on the person who caught the baseball? ANSWER 9. You push a heavy box with a mass of 45.0 kg along a smooth tile floor. The static coefficient of friction is 0.45 and the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.23. a. What is the weight of the box? ANSWER b. What force do you need to apply to the box in order to start it moving? ANSWER c. What force is needed to keep the box moving at a constant speed? ANSWER d. What force would need to be applied in order to make the box accelerate at 2.3 m/s2? ANSWER EXTRA CREDIT: What is terminal velocity? How is it reached? Typical Coefficients of Friction Surfaces Is HK Rubber on concrete 0.80 0.65 Rubber on wet concrete 0.60 0.40 Wood on wood 0.50 0.20 Steel on steel (dry) 0.78 0.58 Steel on steel (with oil) 0.15 0.06 Teflon on steel 0.04 0.04
