1. A motorcycle plus rider has a mass of 1000 kg 1. A motorcycle plus rider has a mass of 1000 kg. They travel inside a loop with a radius of 6 m. At the lowest point, the speed is 20 m/s. What force does the track exert on the motorcycle?

FC = mv2/r FC = 1000 x 202/6 FC = 67000 N

2. Use the universal law of gravitation to find the force between a 100 kg person standing on the surface of the earth and the earth itself.

F = Gm1m2/d2 F = (6. 67 x 10-11)( 6 x 1024) (100)/(6 F = Gm1m2/d2 F = (6.67 x 10-11)( 6 x 1024) (100)/(6.37 x 106)2 F = 986 N

3. A uniform horizontal bar 1. 00 m long is pivoted at the left end 3. A uniform horizontal bar 1.00 m long is pivoted at the left end. If the bar weighs 1.50 N, the clockwise torque is: A) 0.50 m-N, B) 0.75 m-N, C) 1.00 m-N, D) 1.50 m-N.

T = F x l T = 1. 5 x 0. 5 (center of gravity is ½ of 1 m) T = 0 T = F x l T = 1.5 x 0.5 (center of gravity is ½ of 1 m) T = 0.75 Nm (B)

4. To produce rotational equilibrium in the bar of question 3 what upward force must be exerted 0.75 m from the pivoted end? A) 0.50 N, B) 0.75 N, C) 1.00 N, D) 1.50 N.

T = F x l 0.75 Nm = F x 0.75 F = 1 N

5. A uniform bar weighing 30. 0 N is 5. 00 m long 5. A uniform bar weighing 30.0 N is 5.00 m long. Attached At the left end is a weight of 50.0 N, and attached at the right end is a weight of 20.0 N. To prevent translational motion of the bar, what upward motion must be applied? A) 30.0 N, B) 70.0 N, C) 80.0 N, D) 100.0 N

30 + 50 + 20 = 100 N

6. To prevent both translational and rotational motion of the bar in number 5, a single upward equilibrant force must be applied between the: A) left end and center of the the bar, but nearer the left end, B) left end and center of the bar, but nearer the center, C) right end and center of the bar, but nearer the right end, D) right end and center of the bar, but nearer the center.

Pick the left end as the pivot point. CW. CCW 30 x 2. 5 + 20 x 5. = Pick the left end as the pivot point. CW CCW 30 x 2.5 + 20 x 5 = 100 x d 75 + 100 = 100 x d 175 / 100 = d 1.75 = d B) between left end and center of the bar, but nearer the center

7. A beam 4. 00 m long weighs 1400 N. Its center of gravity is 1 7. A beam 4.00 m long weighs 1400 N. Its center of gravity is 1.50 m from the heavy end. At the heavy end a weight of 1000 N is attached, while at the light end there is a weight of 1350 N. Find the magnitude and point of application of the equilibrant force.

1400 + 1350 + 1000 = 3750 N up Pick the left end as the pivot point. CW CCW 1400 x 1.5 + 1350 x 4 = 3750 x d 2100 + 5400 = 3750 x d 7500 = 3750 x d d = 2 m from the left end
