Physics 207 Review Questions - Final
1. A package is dropped on a conveyer belt that is moving at 3
m/s. Its mass is 15 kg and it has a
and a
. For
what distance is the package skidding before it starts moving
smoothly on the belt?
2. A U-shaped tube is exposed to atmospheric pressure on both
ends. It contains an amount of mercury. If you were to pour water
into the right hand side until it was 12 cm deep (water and mercury
don't mix), how far up with the mercury go on the left hand side? (
kg/m3)
3. A conservative force is acting in the x axis. The potential energy
associated with this force is:
When the particle is located at x = 3 meters, the kinetic energy is
equal to 5 J. What is the total mechanical energy (kinetic +
potential) of the system? b) Where on the x axis will the force be
equal to 0?
4. An object hangs from a scale that is essentially a spring. The
scale reads 30 N in air, 20 N when this object is immersed in water,
and 24 N when the object is immersed in another liquid of
unknown density. What is the density of that other liquid?
