    A car traveling around a circular track must have an acceleration less than the coefficient of friction μ times gravity in order to not skid. The shortest time to complete a lap can be found by setting the velocity to be the maximum possible for no slipping, which is V = μgr. The time is then 2πr/V = 2πr/(μgr).

    If you drop an object in the absence of air resistance, it accelerates downward at 9.8 m/s2.

    If instead you throw it downward, its downward acceleration after release is

    a) less than 9.8 m/s2 b) 9.8 m/s2 c) more than 9.8 m/s2 d) does not accelerate
    2. A car travels around a circular track with radius R. To ensure the
    car does not skid on the track, its acceleration must be less than  g .
    The shortest possible time to complete a full lap is
    R
    (a) t  2  R / (  g )
    (b) t  2 R / (  g ) n
    (c) t  2  g / R t

    (d) t  R / (  g ) V

    The shortest time will occur when V is constant. In this case the acceleration is (V 2 / R )n . The max
    possible speed for no slip is V   gR . The time to complete a lap is 2 R / V  2 R /  g
    1. The aircraft shown in the figure has mass m. While
    landing, it touches down with speed v0 and it is slowed by a m
    FD
    2
    drag force with magnitude FD  cv , where c is a constant
    and v is the aircraft’s speed. The engine thrust is negligible. The
    time required for the speed to decrease to v0 / 2 is given by:

    (a) m / (cv0 )
    (b) m / (2cv0 )
    (c) 2m / (cv0 )
    (d) None of the above
    This problem involves several steps: 
    Use work‐energy to get the velocity at 
    A, after which the particle becomes a

    1. A mass m rests on a horizontal surface with friction coefficient 
    . At time t=0 the mass and surface are both at rest. The surface then x(t)
    begins to accelerate to the right with acceleration 3 g . The
    acceleration of the mass is

    (a) a   g

    (b) a  2 g

    (c) a  3 g

    (d) a   g / 2
    A pendulum (mass m at the end of a massless rod of length L) starts at an 
    angle θ0 and is released from rest.  The fluid exerts a drag force on the 
    pendulum of the form FD = cV2.

    Gravity acts and neglect any “buoyancy” force due to the fluid.

    Develop the equation of motion for the pendulum angle versus time.

    A bead is on a circular wire of radius R and can slide along the wire with no friction.

    The circular wire is rotating around the vertical axis at an angular velocity ω, as indicated.

    Neglect the period of time during which the ring was accelerated from rest, and consider 
    only this “steady‐state” situation.

    What is the angle β of the bead as a function of ω, R, and g ?
