The Earth's electric field creates a potential that increases 100 V for every meter of altitude. If an object of charge +4.5 mC and mass 68 g falls a distance of 1.0 m from rest under the influence of the Earth's electric and gravitational fields, what is its final kinetic energy? 0.22 J 0.45 J 0.67 J 1.1 J 7.2 J

A thin, light wire is wrapped around the rim of a wheel, as shown in (Figure 1). The wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis that passes through the center of the wheel. The wheel is a uniform disk with radius 0.276 m. An object of mass 4.10 kg is suspended from the free end of the wire. The system is released from rest and the suspended object descends with constant acceleration. For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tutor Solution of An unwinding cable ii.

A mass m = 1.05 kg slides without friction from rest on a surface making a quarter circle with radius R = 1.55 m as shown in Figure 1. Then it lands on the top surface of a cart with mass M = 11.3 kg, that slides without friction on a horizontal surface. (In practise this cart could be a slider on an air track). Between the top of the cart and the mass m, the coefficient of static friction is μs = 1.07 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.959. The mass m slides a distance along the top of the cart but does not fall off. Figure 1: Diagrammatic representation of a block of mass m at the top of a quarter-circle surface of radius R that slopes down and to the right with decreasing absolute gradient towards a cart of mass M. The cart itself is resting on a horizontal surface. Part 1) What is the speed of the mass m immediately before it lands on the cart, M? v = ms−1 Part 2) What is the speed of the cart, M, when there is no longer any relative movement between m and M? V = m/s Part 3) How much mechanical energy is lost during the collision? (while m comes to rest relative to M). ΔE = −J Enter a positive number in the box if the final mechanical energy is less than the initial mechanical energy.

Several planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus) are encircled by rings, perhaps composed of material that failed to form a satellite. In addition, many galaxies contain ring-like structures. Consider a homogeneous thin ring of mass of M and outer radius R (see the figure). NOTE: Give your answer in terms of the variables given and G when applicable. (a) What gravitational attraction does it exert on a particle of mass m located on the ring's central axis a distance x from the ring center? F = (b) What is the potential energy of the mass m as a function of its distance x from the ring? U(x) = (c) Calculate −dU/dx, where U is the potential energy of the small mass m. (Is this answer what you expected?) −dU/dx = (d) Suppose that, starting from the distance x shown, the particle falls from rest as a result of the attraction of the ring of matter. What is the speed with which it passes through the center of the ring? v =
