A rotary lawn mover spins its sharp blade rapidly over the lawn and cuts the top off the grasses. Would the blade still cut the grasses if they weren't attached to the ground? correct answers Yes Why does a stationary skater remain stationary? correct answers A body at rest tends to remain at rest This observed behavior is known as inertia Why does a moving skater continue moving? correct answers A body in motion tends to remain in motion This behavior is the second half of inertia ...

Question 1 Correct 6.00 points out of 6.00 A 0.500 kg steel ball is dropped from a height of 4.00 m onto a horizontal steel slab. The collision appears elastic in that the ball rebounds to its original height. If the collision lasts for 2.00 × 10−3 s, which of the following is the impulse imparted to the ball and the average force applied to the ball during the collision? Select one: a. I = 8.49 kg•m / s F = 4.25 × 103 N b. I = 8.85 kg•m / s F = 4.43 × 103 N c. I = ...

Question 1 Correct 6.00 points out of 6.00 What is the internal energy of 7.91 x 1022 gas molecules at a temperature of 300 K? Select one: a. 164 J b. 109 J c. 44.2 J d. 492 J Question 2 Correct 6.00 points out of 6.00 Because the energy in SHM alternates between kinetic and potential, at some position x, the kinetic energy must be equal to the potential energy. For the general case, an object undergoing SHM with an amplitude A, which of the following is this position? Select on...

Question 1 Correct 6.00 points out of 6.00 The main pipe coming into a factory is 8 m in diameter, and the water in that pipe enters the building at 1 m / s. Once inside, however, the pipe divides into four pipes that are each4 m in diameter. Which of the following is the velocity of the water in the smaller pipes? Select one: a. 2 m / s b. 4 m / s c. 0.25 m / s d. The velocity in the smaller pipes is the same as the velocity in the larger pipe. Question 2 Correct 6...

Question 1 Correct 5.00 points out of 5.00 A 0.200 kg dart is fired horizontally at a speed of 2.75 m / s when it hits a 0.700 kg block ofwood suspended by a string. The nose of the dart sticks into 0.00210 m the wood. Together the dart and block swing upwards from a height of 0.0500 m above a table to 0.128 m above the table. Which of the following is the average force the dart applies to the block during impact? Select one: a. 32.4 N b. 15.1 N c. 1.36 N d. 0.872 N Straighterl...
