Grading Policy Two Cars on a Curving Road Part A A small car of mass m and a large car of mass 4m drive along a highway at constant speed. They approach a curve of radius R. Both cars maintain the same acceleration a as they travel around the curve. How does the speed of the small car v S compare to the speed of the large car v L as they round the curve? Hint 1. How to approach the problem To solve this problem use proportional reasoning. Find the simplest equation that contains the variables and other known quantities from the problem. Write this equation twice: once for the car of mass m and speed v S and again for the car of mass 4m and speed v L . Write each equation so that all the constants are on one side, cancel any quantities that appear on both sides and keep the variables on the other side. In this problem the variable is v so write your equations in the form v = …. Finally, compare the two cases presented in the problem. For this question you should find the ratio v S /v L . Hint 2.

Find the simplest equation that contains these variables and other known quantities from the problem. Write this equation twice: once to describe F1 , v 1 , and R1 and again to relate F2 , v 2 , and R2 . Write each equation so that all the constants are on one side and the variables are on the other. In this problem the variable is F so write your equations in the form F = …. Finally, compare the two cases presented in the problem. For this question you should find the ratio F1 /F2 . Hint 2.

Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.40×106 N , one at an angle 11.0 ∘ west of north, and the other at an angle 11.0 ∘ east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.640 km toward the north. Part A What is the total work done by the two tugboats on the supertanker? Express your answer in joules, to three significant figures. Hint 1. How to approach the problem There are two ways to calculate the total work done on an object when several forces act on it. You can compute the quantities of work done on the object by each force and then add them together. Alternatively, you can compute the work done on the object by the net force acting on it. The hints that follow are meant to help you to calculate the total work using the first method. Hint 2. Find the work done by one tugboat What is the work done on the tanker by the tugboat that exerts a force in the direction west of north? Express your answer in joules, to three significant figures. Hint 1. The definition of work ⃗ The work W done by a constant force F acting on an object that undergoes a straightline displacement d ⃗ is given by the formula , W = F d cos ϕ where ϕ is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of displacement. ANSWER: 8.80×108 J ANSWER: 1.76×109 J Correct ± All Work and No Play Learning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement If an object undergoes displacement while being acted upon by a force (or several forces), it is said that work is being done on the object. If the object is moving in a straight line and the displacement and the force are known, the work done by the force can be calculated as ⃗ ∣ ⃗ ∣ ⃗ ⃗ ∣ ∣ ⃗ cos θ W = F ⋅ s ⃗ = F ∣ ∣s ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ , ⃗ ⃗ ⃗ where W is the work done by force F on the object that undergoes displacement s directed at angle θ relative to F . Note that depending on the value of cos θ, the work done can be positive, negative, or zero. In this problem, you will practice calculating work done on an object moving in a straight line. The first series of questions is related to the accompanying figure. Part A What can be said about the sign of the work done by the force F 1⃗ ? ANSWER: It is positive. It is negative. It is zero. There is not enough information to answer the question. Correct When θ = 90 ∘ , the cosine of θ is zero, and therefore the work done is zero. Part B What can be said about the work done by force F 2⃗ ? ANSWER: It is positive. It is negative. It is zero. Correct When 0∘ < θ < 90 ∘ , cos θ is positive, and so the work done is positive. Part C ⃗ The work done by force F 3⃗ is ANSWER: positive negative zero Correct When 90 ∘ ∘ < θ < 180 , cos θ is negative, and so the work done is negative. Part D The work done by force F 4⃗ is ANSWER: positive negative zero Correct Part E The work done by force F 5⃗ is ANSWER: positive negative zero Correct Part F The work done by force F 6⃗ is ANSWER: positive negative zero Correct Part G The work done by force F 7⃗ is ANSWER: positive negative zero Correct In the next series of questions, you will use the formula W ⃗ ⃗ ∣ ∣ ⃗ cos θ = F ⋅ s ⃗ = F ∣ ∣s ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ to calculate the work done by various forces on an object that moves 160 meters to the right.
