Newton’s Laws of Motion
Conceptual Question: Twenty people participate in a tug-of-war. The two teams of ten people are so evenly matched that neither team wins. After the game they notice that a car is stuck in the mud. They attach the tug-of-war rope to the bumper of the car, and all the people pull on the rope. The heavy car has just moved a couple of decimeters when the rope breaks. Why did the rope break in this situation when it did not break when the same twenty people pulled on it in a tug-of-war?

- Train Collision and Newtons First Law A group of college students discusses the train collision case study. Use Newtons first law to decide which underlined statements are correct and which are false. Explain your answers. Shannon: This newspaper says that the people who got really hurt were either standing up or sitting in a forward-facing seat. Those people got thrown forward when the train stopped. Avi: Thats why there are seat belts in cars. If you get into a crash, the force can throw you through the windshield. Cameron: There is no force that throws you through the windshield. You fly through the windshield because you are already moving and it would take a force to stop you from going forward. Thats why theres a seat belt. Avi: That doesnt make sense. Because then you would need a force to stop you from flying through the windshield even when you just stop slowly at a red light. Cameron: Thats right, but when you slow down slowly, you dont need such a big force and the car seat can take care of it. Shannon: The seat? I dont think a seat can exert a force. It cant move on its own or hold you. Thats why the people who were sitting forward on the train were hurt. The people who were sitting backward had the back of the seat to block them.arrow_forwardWhen a 1.50-kg dress hangs midway from a taut clothesline stretched between two poles planted 7.50 m apart, the clothesline is seen to sag 0.0500 m. a.

- A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.50 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting motion, including friction and air resistance, total 400 N. (Air resistance is analogous to air friction. It always opposes the motion of an object.) What is the magnitude of the force the motorcycle exerts backward on the ground to produce its acceleration if the mass of the motorcycle with rider is 245 kg?arrow_forwardConstruct Your Own Problem Consider the tension in an elevator cable during the time the elevator starts from rest and accelerates its load upward to some cruising velocity. Taking the elevator and its load to be the system of interest, draw a free-body diagram. Then calculate the tension in the cable.

The astronaut has a few packages that she can throw away to move herself toward the ship. Construct a problem in which you calculate the time it takes her to get back by throwing all the packages at one time compared to throwing them one at a time. Among the things to be considered are the masses involved, the force she can exert on the packages through some distance, and the distance to the ship.arrow_forward
