  • Two singly ionized atoms move into a magnetic fields of magnitude 0.100 T pointing into the page. Each has a speed of 1.00 X 106 m/s. The nucleus of the first atom contains one proton and has a mass of 1.67 X 10-27 kg, while the nucleus of the second atom contains a proton and a neutron and has a mass of 3.34 X 10-27 kg. Atoms with the same number of protons in the nucleus but different masses are called isotopes. The two isotopes here are hydrogen and deuterium. Find their distance of separation when they strike a photographic plate.

A 0.5 kg ball is dropped from a window. An archer shoots a 0.05 kg arrow to intercept the ball. When the ball is impaled it is traveling at -2 m/s in the y direction, and the arrow is traveling at 35 m/s at an angle of 20 degrees. What is the velocity of the pair after the collision in vector notation, magnitude, and direction? What is the impulse of the arrow?

Sassbot and Block Ness Monster play roller derby for the Reservoir Dolls, a roller derby team in Madison, Wisconsin. In a particular bout against the Unholy Rollers, another Madison team, Sassbot is playing the position of jammer: she must pass members of the Unholy Rollers in order to score points. Block Ness Monster is playing as a blocker: she must help Sassbot while also stopping the Unholy Rollers’ jammer. During a crucial moment in the bout, Monster sees that Sass, a few feet in front of her, is about to get hit by Skullz B. Kraken, a member of the Unholy Rollers. Monster reaches Sass quickly and pushes her forward, attempting to give Sass a boost of speed so she is out of the Skullz’s reach. Monster pushes Sass straight forward, delivering the push at Sass’s center of mass, her lower back, so that Sass does not experience any rotation due to the push. Neither Monster nor Sass are using their wheels to brake immediately before, during, or after the push, so the outside forces on them are negligible. Monster’s mass is 82 kg. Sass’s mass is 55 kg. Monster’s speed before the push is 2 m·s−1, and Sass’s speed before the push is 0.75 m·s−1. Monster and Sass have found, in previous practice, that the average coefficient of restitution of this sort of push between them is 0.8. The coefficient of restitution is defined as the ratio of the difference in two objects’ velocities after the collision to that of the difference in the objects’ velocities before the collision. e = v2,f − v1,fv2,i − v1,i At the moment Monster finishes her push, Skullz is 0.75 m to the left and 1.1 m in front of Sass. Skullz is moving laterally (to the right) at a speed of 2.15 m·s−1 in her attempt to hit Sass. Sass is moving directly forward after Monster’s push. Will Sass get hit by Skullz or will she get past her in time?

How long will it take Sass to travel forward past Skullz’s position?

In an attempt to save someone in a vertically falling car Spider-Man spins a web catching the 2000 kg car. The webbing has a spring constant of 22,000 N/m and the car is caught at t = 0 at a distance 0.500 m above equilibrium while it is still falling at a speed of -10.0 m/s. After this, the car goes into vertical SHM.

Wo = 3.32Hz

f = .528Hz

Period (T) = 1.89s

Find:

a) the amplitude

b) the phase angle

c) the time it takes the car to get to its lowest point (? = −?).

A bullet (m = 10 g) flies horizontally with an initial speed of v = 500 m/s and then embeds itself in a block of wood (m = 400 g) that is at rest on a flat surface. The surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.4. After the impact, how far does the block of wood slide?

(a) 40 m (b) 800 m (c) 8 m (d) 80 m (e) 20 m

In the worst-case scenario, you've got an elevator with a mass 2420 kg moving a speed 4.29 m/s when it reaches the bottom of the shaft. Your first idea is to put a spring, with spring constant 1.068×104 N/m, at the bottom of the shaft.

a)Assuming the spring obeys Hooke's Law perfectly, how far will it compress to stop the elevator?

b)When the elevator comes to a stop with the spring compressed, what is the net force on the elevator?

c)It's a bit unreasonable to put a spring large enough to compresses this far under every elevator. So you decide to add a clamping mechanism to the walls around the spring, which will provide a friction force of magnitude 1.74×104 N

Now how far does the spring get compressed?

Express your answer with appropriate units.

Muons are unstable subatomic particles with a mean lifetime of 2.2 μs that decay to electrons. They are produced when cosmic rays bombard the upper atmosphere about 10 km above the earth’s surface, and they travel very close to the speed of light. The problem we want to address is why we see any of them at the earth’s surface.What is the greatest distance a muon could travel during its 2.2 μs lifetime?According to your answer in part A, it would seem that muons could never make it to the ground. But the 2.2 μs lifetime is measured in the frame of the muon, and they are moving very fast. At a speed of 0.999c, what is the mean lifetime of a muon as measured by an observer at rest on the earth?
