Constant Net Force Model- Newton's 2nd Law of Motion Do your work on a separate paper or in your logbook.

I will check your work when we come back from Thanksgiving break. 1. An elevator is moving up at a constant velocity of 2.5 rn/s, as illustrated in the diagram below: The man has a mass of 85. kg. a. Construct a forcediaprarn for the

12. During a head-on collision, a passenger in the front seat of a car accelerates from 13.3 m/s (~ 30 miles/hour) to rest in 0.10 s. a) What is the acceleration of the passenger? b) The driver of the car hold out his arm to keep his 25 kg child (who is not wearing a seat belt) from smashing into the dashboard. What force must he exert on the child? c) What is the weight of the child? d) C onvert these forces from N to pounds. (x 4.45N)' 11b stop the child? 13. A 20 kg mass is allowed to acceierate down a frictionless 15 ramp. " W h at are th e chances the driver will be able to

Draw a force vector map for the block. What is the acceleration of the block down the ramp? How long will it take for the block to slide 30. Om?

While descending in the elevator, the cable suddenly breaks. What is the force of the floor on the man? For each ofthe problems below, you must begin your solution with a force vector diagram ofsome sort. Some lmghr require more than one diagram. 14. An applied 25 N force pushes on a 5.0 kg block resting on a frictionless horizontal surface. The force is directed downwards at an angle of 20' a. b. c. Draw a force vector map for the block .. What is the acceleration of the block? What is the perpendicular force on the block?

5. A 4600 kg helicopter accelerates upward at 2.0 O1/s2 What lift force is exerted by the air on the propellers? 6. The maximum force that a grocery bag can withstand without ripping is 250 N. Suppose that the bag is filled with 20. kg of groceries and lifted with an acceleration of 5.0 m/s2 bag? 7. Do the groceries stay in the

A student, standing on a scale in an elevator at rest, sees that his weight ;s'840 N. Asthe elevator rises, his weight increases to 1050 N, then returns to normal. When the elevator slows to a stop at the 10th floor, his weight drops to 588 N, then returns to normal. Draw a motion map for the student during his elevator ride. Determine the acceleration at the beginning and end of the trip.

15. A 70.0 kg box is pulled by a 400.' N force at an angle of 30. to the horizontal. The kinetic friction is 50N. Draw the force vector map for the box. Calculate the acceleration of the box?

8. A sign in an elevator states that the maximum occupancy is 20 persons. Suppose that the safety engineers assume the mass of the average rider is 75 kg. The elevator itself has a mass of 500 kg. The cable supporting the elevator can tolerate a maximum force of 3D, 000 N. What is the greatest acceleration that the elevator's motor can produce without snapping the cable? For these problems, you will have 9.

use kinematics graphs or formulas

as well as Newton's 2nd Law.

16. Two blocks are connected as shown in the diagram below. Assume that the ramp is frictionless a) Draw the force diagram for the block on the ramp. b) What is the acceleration of the block?

A race car has a mass of 71 0 kg. It siarts from rest and travels 40.0m irl 3.0s. The car is uniformly accelerated during the entire time. What net force is acting on the car?

c) Repeat a&b except now, assume that the frictional force acting on the block on the ramp is 25N. 17. A 20 kg block (A) rests on a frictionless table; a cord attached to the block extends horizontally to a pulley at the edge of the table. A 10 kg mass (8) hangs at the end of thecord. a) Clearly draw and label the force vector map for forces acting on each object b) Calculate the acceleration of the block and mass. c) Calculate the tension in the cord.

10. Suppose that a 1000 kg car is traveling at 25 m/s (~55 mph). Its brakes can apply a force of 5000N. What is the minimum distance required for the car to stop? 11 A 65 kg person dives into the water from the 10m platform. a) What is her speed as she enters the water? b) She comes to a stop 2.0 m below the surface of the water. What net force did the water exert on the swimmer?
