Physics Questions: Problem sets in Physics

ENJOY PHYSICS!

Direction: Answer the following PHYSICS problems. Show all pertinent solutions.

1. An antelope moving with constant acceleration covers the distance between two points 80.0 m apart in 7.00s. Its speed as it passes the second point is 20.0 m/s. a) What is its speed at the first point? b) What is the acceleration?
2. The catapult of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln accelerates an F/A – 18 Hornet jet fighter from rest to a take-off speed of 170 mi/h in a distance of 320 ft. Assume constant acceleration. a) Calculate the acceleration of the fighter in m/s2. b) Calculate the time required for the fighter to be accelerated to take-off speed.
3. An airplane travels 500m down the runway before taking off. If it starts from rest, moves with constant acceleration, and becomes airborne in 8.98 s, what is its speed in m/s, when takes off?
4. If a flea can jump straight up to a height of 0.525 m, what is its initial speed as it leaves the ground? b) For how much time is it in the air?
5. A player kicks a ball with a velocity of 42 m/s, 37ยบ from the horizontal. Find:
a. the maximum height the ball could reach.
b. the time to reach the maximum height.
c. the time the ball is in the air.
d. the range.
6. A crate with a mass 42.5 kg initially at rest on a warehouse floor is acted on by a net force of 140N. a) What acceleration is produced? B) How far does the crate travel in 11.0 s? c) What is its speed at the end of 11.0s?
7. A stockroom worker pushes a box with mass 11.6 kg on a horizontal surface with a constant speed of 3.40 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is 0.22. a) What horizontal force must be applied by the worker to maintain the motion? b) If the force calculated in part (a) is removed, how far does the box slide before coming to rest?
8. A stone with a mass of 0.81 kg is attached to one end of a string 0.90 m long. The string will break if its tension exceeds 600N. The stone is whirled in a horizontal circle on a frictionless table top; the other end of the string is kept fixed. Find the maximum speed the stone can attain without breaking the string.
9. A soccer ball of mass 0.430 kg is initially moving with speed 2.00 m/s. A soccer player kicks the ball, exerting a constant force of magnitude 40.0 N in the same direction as the ball motion. Over what distance must her foot be in contact with the ball to increase the ball’s speed to 6.10 m/s?
10. A mail bag with a mass of 130 kg is suspended by a vertical rope 6.5 m long. a) What horizontal force is necessary to hold the bag in position displaced sideways 3.0m from its initial position? b) How much work is done by the worker in moving the bag to this position?

  17. The binary numeral system, or base-2 number system represents numeric values using two symbols, 0 and 1. More specifically, the usual base-2 system is a positional notation with a radix of 2. Owing to its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used internally by all modern computers.

    A binary number can be represented by any sequence of bits (binary digits), which in turn may be represented by any mechanism capable of being in two mutually exclusive states. The following sequences of symbols could all be interpreted as the binary numeric value of 667:

    1 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 1
    | − | − − | | − | |
    x o x o o x x o x x
    y n y n n y y n y y

    A binary clock might use LEDs to express binary values. In this clock, each column of LEDs shows a binary-coded decimal numeral of the traditional sexagesimal time.

    The numeric value represented in each case is dependent upon the value assigned to each symbol. In a computer, the numeric values may be represented by two different voltages; on a magnetic disk, magnetic polarities may be used. A "positive", "yes", or "on" state is not necessarily equivalent to the numerical value of one; it depends on the architecture in use.

    In keeping with customary representation of numerals using Arabic numerals, binary numbers are commonly written using the symbols 0 and 1. When written, binary numerals are often subscripted, prefixed or suffixed in order to indicate their base, or radix. The following notations are equivalent:

    100101 binary (explicit statement of format)
    100101b (a suffix indicating binary format)
    100101B (a suffix indicating binary format)
    bin 100101 (a prefix indicating binary format)
    1001012 (a subscript indicating base-2 (binary) notation)
    %100101 (a prefix indicating binary format)
    0b100101 (a prefix indicating binary format, common in programming languages)

    When spoken, binary numerals are usually read digit-by-digit, in order to distinguish them from decimal numbers. For example, the binary numeral 100 is pronounced one zero zero, rather than one hundred, to make its binary nature explicit, and for purposes of correctness. Since the binary numeral 100 is equal to the decimal value four, it would be confusing to refer to the numeral as one hundred.
