If the angular acceleration is constant, how many revolutions does the propeller undergo during this time?A.) 7B.) 14C.) 21D.) 49E.) 1503. A satellite follows a circular path with constant speed around a planet. Which of the following quantities is constant and non-zero for this satelliteA.) Linear velocityB.) Angular velocityC.) Centripetal accelerationD.) Angular accelerationE.) Total acceleration4. Complete the following statement: When a net torque is applied to a rigid object, it always produces a:A.) Constant accelerationB.) Rotational equilibriumC.) Constant angular velocityD.) Constant angular momentumE.) Change in angular velocity5. Complete the following statement: A body is in translational equilibriumA.) Only if it’s at restB.) Only if its moving with constant velocityC.) Only if its moving with constant accelerationD.) If it’s either at rest or moving with constant velocityE.) If it’s moving with either constant velocity or constant acceleration6. Consider the following four objects: a hoop, a flat disk, a solid sphere and a hollow sphere. Each of the objects has mass M and radius R. The axis of rotation passes through the center of each object, and is perpendicular to the plane of the hoop andthe plane of the flat disk. Which object requires the largest torque to give it the same angular acceleration?A.) The solid sphereB.) The hollow sphereC.) The hoopD.) The flat diskE.) Both the solid and the hollow spheres7. A child wants to pump up a bicycle tire so that its pressure is 1.2 × 105 Pa above that ofatmospheric pressure. If the child uses a pump with a circular piston 0.035 m in diameter, what force must the child exert? A.) 120 NB.) 89 NC.) 76 ND.) 54 NE.) 240 N8. The two dams are identical with the exception that the water reservoir behind dam A extends twice the horizontal distance behind it as that of dam B. Which one of the following statements regarding these dams is correct?A.) The force exerted by the water on dam A is greater than that on dam B.B.) The force exerted by the water on dam B is greater than that on dam A.C.) Dam A is more likely to collapse than dam B if the water level rises.D.) Dam B is more likely to collapse than dam A if the water level rises.E.) The horizontal distance of the water behind the two dams does not determine the force on them. 9. Complete the following sentence: The operation of a hydraulic jack is an application ofA.) Pascal’s principleB.) Bernoulli’s principleC.) Archimedes’ principleD.) Irrotational flowE.) The continuity equation10. Which one of the following statements concerning buoyant force on an object submerged in a liquid is true? A.) The buoyant force depends on the mass of the object.B.) The buoyant force depends on the weight of the object.C.) The buoyant force is independent of the density of the liquid.D.) The buoyant force depends on the volume of the liquid displaced.E.) The buoyant force will increase with depth if the liquid is incompressible.11. A curtain hangs straight down in front of an open window. A sudden gust of wind blows past the window; and the curtain is pulled out of the window. Which law, principle, or equation can be used to explain this movement of the curtain? A.) Poiseuille’s law B.) Bernoulli’s principleC.) The equation of continuityD.) Archimedes’ principleE.) Pascal’s principle12. A baseball pitcher throws the ball in a motion where there is rotation of the forearm about the elbow joint as well as other movements. If the linear velocity of the ball relative to the elbow joint is 10.0 m/s at a distance of 0.410 m from the joint and the moment of inertia of the forearm is 0.500 kg•m2, what is the rotational kinetic energy of the forearm in Joules? A.) 148.7213. Suppose you have a coffee mug with a circular cross section and vertical sides. What is its inside radius if it holds 400.0 g of coffee when it’s filled to a depth of 6.00 cm? Assume coffee has the same density of water. Answer in cmB.) 4.6 cm14.
