1. Mask-Rider starts off his motorbike ride in front of a gas station.

From there he travels

2.1 km west, then 1.5 km 60 east of south, then 3.5 km east. After a fourth unknown
displacement he is once again in front of the same gas station where he started. Use the
component method to determine the missing fourth displacement (magnitude &
direction).
2. On level ground a shell is fired with an initial velocity of 90 m/s at 45 degrees above the
horizontal and feels no appreciable air resistance. (a) Find the horizontal and vertical
components of the shells initial velocity. (b) How long does it take the shell to reach its
highest point? (c) find the maximum height above the ground. (d) How far from its firing
point does the shell land? (e) At its highest point , find the horizontal and vertical
components of its acceleration and velocity.
3. Two seconds after being projected from ground level, a projectile is displaced 40 m
horizontally and 58 m vertically above its launch point. What are the (a) horizontal and
vertical components of the initial velocity of the projectile? (b) At the instant the
projectile achieves its maximum height above ground level, how far is it displaced
horizontally from the launch point?
4. A block of mass m = 3.0 kg slides along a floor while a force of magnitude 12.0 N is
applied to it at an upward angle . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block
and the floor is k = 0.40. We can vary from 0 to 90 (the block remains on the floor).
What gives the maximum value of the block's acceleration magnitude a? (Hint: Take
the derivative of a with respect to angle ).
5. A box of dirty money with mass m1 = 3 kg on a
frictionless plane inclined at an angle 30 degrees. The
box is connected via a cord of negligible mass to a box of
laundered money with mass m2 = 2kg on a frictionless
plane inclined at an angle 60 degrees. The pulley is
frictionless and has negligible mass. What is the tension
on the cord and the systems acceleration?
6. A 1.34 kg ball is connected by means of two massless strings, each of
length L = 1.70 m, to a vertical, rotating rod. The strings are tied to the
with separation d = 1.70 m. The tension in the upper string is 35 N. What
are the (a) tension in the lower string, (b) magnitude of the net force
on the ball, and (c) speed of the ball?
7. A small remote-control car with mass 1.60 kg moves at a constant
speed of v = 12.0 m/s in a vertical circle inside a hollow metal
cylinder that has a radius of 5.00 m. What is the magnitude of the
normal force exerted on the car by the walls of the cylinder at (a)
point A and (b) point B?

8. The mass of Venus is 81.5% that of the earth and its radius is
94.9% that of the earth. (a) Compute the acceleration due to
gravity on the surface of Venus from these data. (b) If a rock
weighs 75.0 N on earth, what would it weigh at surface of Venus?
