- (a) shift toward the front of the plane,
- (b) continue to hang straight down, or
- (c) shift toward the back of the plane?
- (ii) The speed of the plane increases at a constant rate over a time interval of several seconds. During this interval, does the angle the earphone wire makes with the vertical
- (a) increase,
- (b) stay constant, or
- (c) decrease?

To assess a patient who is suspected of having heart disease, the physician must examine the cardiac function when (a) the patient is at rest with a heart beating at a normal pace, and (b) when under stress, for example, after exercise. To simulate the conditions of stress, the patient exercises by walking a treadmill to increase heart beat and sustain high levels of cardiac stress. Suppose a 50 kg patient exercises on the treadmill, angled at 30◦ from the ground, exerting a constant force of 500 N up the slope of the treadmill while running a constant velocity of 4 m/s along the treadmill for 5 minutes. The coefficient of friction of the treadmill is µs = 0.45. Determine the work done by the patient.
