  1. Review for Exam #3 October 26, 2005

  2. 60 5 0 0 Is it possible to do work on an object that remains at rest? • Yes • No

  3. 58 5 0 0 A box is being pulled up a rough incline by a rope connected to a pulley. How many forces are doing work on the box? • One force • Two forces • Three forces • Four forces • No forces

  4. 60 5 at rest at rest v 0 v 2 1 0 Consider two elastic collisions: 1) a golf ball with speed v hits a stationary bowling ball head-on. 2) a bowling ball with speed v hits a stationary golf ball head-on. In which case does the golf ball have the greater speed after the collision? • Situation 1 • Situation 2 • Both the same

  5. vi vf 60 5 0 0 On a frictionless surface, a sliding box collides and sticks to a second identical box which is initially at rest. What is the final KE of the system in terms of the initial KE? • KEf = KEi • KEf = ¼ (KEi) • KEf = (KEi)/√2 • KEf = ½(KEi) • KEf = √2(KEi)

  6. 60 5 0 0 A child on a skateboard is moving at a speed of 2 m/s. After a force acts on the child, her speed is 3 m/s. What can you say about the work done by the external force on the child? • Positive work was done • Negative work was done • Zero work was done

  7. 60 5 0 0 You and your friend both solve a problem involving a skier going down a slope, starting from rest. The two of you have chosen different levels for y = 0 in this problem. Which of the following quantities will you and your friend agree on? • Only B • Only C • A, B, C • Only A and C • Only B and C A) skier’s PE B) skier’s change in PE C) skier’s final KE

  8. 60 x 5 0 0 A box sliding on a frictionless flat surface runs into a fixed spring, which compresses a distance x to stop the box. If the initial speed of the box were doubled, how much would the spring compress in this case? • Half as much • The same amount • √2 times as much • Twice as much • Four times as much

  9. Answers • No, the distance is zero. • There are four forces acting on the box – gravity, a normal force, tension and friction. Tension does positive work, friction and gravity both do negative work, and the normal force does no work, so THREE forces contribute to the work. • Situation 2 – in situation 1, the bowling ball will have very little velocity, so the small ball will have almost the same speed it had before impact. In situation 2, the bowling ball will have a speed close to v, so the small ball will rebound with 2v. • ½ the initial KE • Positive work was done, since the KE increased. • Only B and C • Twice as much, from energy conservation, with kinetic energy (~v2) at the beginning equaling the potential energy from a SPRING (~x2).
