Q- A 2.0 kg ball tied to a string fixed to the ceiling is pulled to one side by a force F to an angle of 37 degrees from the ceiling.
a) Just before the ball is released and allowed to swing back and forth, how large is the force F that is holding the ball in position.
b) Just before the ball is r…

Q- A box sits on a horizontal wooden ramp. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the ramp is 0.43. You grab one end of the ramp and lift it up, keeping the other end of the ramp on the ground. What is the angle between the ramp and the horizontal direction when the box begins to sli…
Sliding without Tipping
Q- Determine the horizontal force F necessary to slide the 100 kg crate of height 1.5 m and width 1.00 m. The crate has uniform mass distribution. The coefficient of static friction at the floor is ms = 0.4. What is the maximum height h for which with this force the crate will slide without tipping?
Electrostatics: Potential
Q- Two charges are fixed in place with a separation d. One charge is positive and has seven times (n = 7) the magnitude of the other charge, which is negative. The positive charge lies to the left of the negative charge. Relative to the negative charge, locate the two spots on the line through the c…

Q- An automobile has a vertical radio antenna 1.20 m long. The automobile travels at 72.0 km/h on a horizontal road where the Earth's magnetic field is 50.0 µT directed toward the north and downward at an angle of 60.0° below the horizontal. Calculate the maximum possible magnitude of EMF induced in…

Q- A uniform rod of mass M and length l can rotate freely in a vertical plane about a smooth hinge at one end. A light inextensible string attached to the other end of the rod passes over a smooth peg which is at a height h (greater than l) vertically above the hinge and supports a mass m hanging fr…
