A ball is released from rest from the twentieth floor of a building. After 1 s, the ball has fallen one floor such that it is directly outside the nineteenth-floor window. The floors are evenly spaced. Assume air resistance is negligible. What is the number of floors the ball would fall in 3 s after it is released from the twentieth floor? A 3 floors or less B 4 to 6 floors (C) 7 to 10 floors (D) 11 floors or more

A ball is attached to one end of a wire, the other end being fastened to the ceiling. The wire is held horizontal, and the ball is released from rest (see the drawing). It swings downward and strikes a block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible, and the collision is elastic. The masses of the ball and block are, respectively, 1.8 kg and 2.4 kg, and the length of the wire is 1.40 m. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the ball (a) just before the collision, and (b) just after the collision. (a) v = (b) v =

A 4.41-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +354 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (see part a of the drawing). The bullet is approaching two blocks resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible. The bullet passes completely through the first block (an inelastic collision) and embeds itself in the second one, as indicated in part b. Note that both blocks are moving after the collision with the bullet. The mass of the first block is 1199 g, and its velocity is +0.644 m/s after the bullet passes through it. The mass of the second block is 1576 g . (a) What is the velocity of the second block after the bullet imbeds itself? (b) Find the ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to that before the collision. (a) Before collision (b) After collision (a) vblock2 = Number Units (b) KEafter/KEbefore = Number Units

In the figure, a small block of mass m = 0.014 kg can slide along the frictionless loop-the-loop, with loop radius R = 11 cm. The block is released from rest at point P, at height h = 5 R above the bottom of the loop. What are the magnitudes of (a) the horizontal component and (b) the vertical component of the net force acting on the block at point Q? (c) At what height h should the block be released from rest so that it is on the verge of losing contact with the track at the top of the loop? (On the verge of losing contact means that the normal force on the block from the track has just then become zero).
