CTEnergy-0. The United States has 5% of the world's population. What fraction of the entire world's supply of oil is consumed in the United States? A) 5 % B) 8 % C) 15 % D) 25 % Answer: 25% CTEnergy-1. Albert Einstein lowers a book of mass m downward a distance h at constant speed v. The work done by … the force of gravity is.. A) + B) C) 0 the force of Albert's hand is.. A) + B) C) 0 the net force on the book is .. A) + B) C) 0 Answers: The work done by gravity is + since displacement and force of gravity are in the same direction. The work done by Al's hand is (–), since displacement and the force of Al's hand are in the opposite direction. The net force is zero, so the work done by the net force is zero. Fhand s Fgrav CTEnergy-2. A rock of mass m is twirled on a string in a horizontal plane. The work done by the tension in the string on the rock is.. A) + B) C) 0 Answer: The work done by the tension force is zero, since in any tiny interval of time, the force of the tension in the string is perpendicular to the direction of the displacement. s F CTEnergy-3. A 1 kg mass is moved part way around a square loop as shown. The square is 1 meter on a side and the final position of the mass is 0.5 m below its original position. Assume that g = 10 m/s2. What is the work done by the force of gravity during this journey? m g h = (1 kg) (10 m/s2) (h) Up 0.5m 1m start finish A) 10 J B) 5 C) 0 J D) –10 J E) –5 J Answer: Total work done is +5 J. The work done during the horizontal segments is zero (since force is perpendicular to displacement there). The work during the first upward vertical segment is negative and this negative work is cancelled by the positive work done during the first half of the downward vertical segment. The total work is that done during the second half of the downward vertical segment where h = 0.5 m. If instead of moving part way around a square, the mass where taken on a long and tortuous journey to the Moon, Tibet, and Lithuania and then returned to the same finish point as before, would the work done by gravity be the .. A) same, or B) different. Answer: the same! Any journey can be thought of a series of small vertical or horizontal displacements. During any horizontal segment, the work done by gravity is zero. All upward vertical segments are cancelled by corresponding downward vertical segments, EXCEPT for the last 0.5 m between the start and the finish. CTEnergy-4. Two marbles, one twice as heavy as the other, are dropped to the ground from the roof of a building. (Assume no air resistance.) Just before hitting the ground, the heavier marble has.. A) as much kinetic energy as the lighter one. B) twice as much kinetic energy as the lighter one. C) half as much kinetic energy as the lighter one. D) four times as much kinetic energy as the lighter one. E) impossible to determine. Answer: The heavier marble has the same final speed but twice the mass m, so it has twice the KE = (1/2)mv2. CTEnergy-5. A car moves of mass m moving with speed v suddenly applies the brakes and slows to a stop. Suppose I ask "What was the work done on the car by the force of friction?" Do you have enough information to answer the question? A) Yes B) No Answer: Yes. We can use the Work-Energy Principle which says that the work done by the net force is the change in kinetic energy: Wnet = KE. In this case the net force is the force of friction. The change in KE is KEf – KEi = 0 – (1/2)mv2. CTEnergy-6. A mass m is at the end of light (massless) rod of length R, the other end of which has a frictionless pivot so the rod can swing in a vertical plane. The rod is initially horizontal and the mass is pushed down with an initial speed vo . What initial kinetic energy is required for the mass to pivot 270o to the vertical position? m R vo KEINITIAL = A) mgR 1 mv o2 2 B) mg(2R) C) mg(3R) D) None of these Answer: mgR, by conservation of energy: y = +R Let us put the zero of height at the initial position: y=0 y = –R KE i PE i KE f PE f KE i 0 0 mgR Instead, we could put the zero of height at the bottom of the circle: y = +2R y = +R y=0 KEi PEi KE f PE f In which case, we get the same answer as before: KEi mgR 0 mg2R KEi mgR CTEnergy-7. A stick of dynamite explodes. Is energy conserved in this situation? A) Yes B) No Answer: Yes. The total energy everywhere is always conserved. In science, the word "conserved" means "the total amount is constant, unchanging". When the dynamite explodes, the chemical potential energy in the molecules of TNT are converted into other forms of energy: heat and light. CTEnergy-8. A projectile is fired with an initial speed vo at an angle from the horizontal. What is the KE of the projectile when it is on the way down at a height h above the ground? (Assume no air resistance.) KE = ? vo h A) (1/2)mvo2 + mgh B) mgh C) (1/2)mvo2 – mgh D) Impossible to tell Answer: Use conservation of energy and write Ei = Ef with the initial position = where projectile has just left the cannon, and the final position = height h KE i PE i 1 2 m vo 0 1 2 m vf 2 KE f PE f 2 1 2 1 2 m vf 2 m g h m vo 2 m g h CTEnergy-9. A block initially at rest is allowed to slide down a frictionless ramp and attains a speed v at the bottom. To achieve a speed 2v at the bottom, how many times higher must the new ramp be? h A) v 2 14 . B) 2 C) 3 D) 4 E) none of these. Answer: Using conservation of energy, we can write Ei = Ef. If we place the zero of height at the bottom of the ramp, we have.. KE i PE i KE f PE f 0 mgh 1 2 mv 2 0 h v2 So, the initial height h is proportional to the final speed-squared, v2 . So to get twice the speed v, we need 4 times the height h. [Since (2v)2 = 4v2] CTEnergy-10. A mass slides down a rough ramp (with friction) of height h. Its initial speed is zero. Its final speed at the bottom of the ramp is v. vi = 0 v As the mass descended, its KE A) increased B) decreased C) remained constant. As the mass descended, its PE A) increased B) decreased C) remained constant. As the mass descended, its (KE + PE) = total mechanical energy A) increased B) decreased C) remained constant. Answers: KE increased, PE decreased, and Emech decreased. Some of the mechanical energy was converted into thermal energy by the friction. Remember: KE+PE = constant ONLY if NO friction and no heat generated. If there is friction, then KE + PE + Ethermal = constant CTEnergy-11. A mass is oscillating back and forth on a spring as shown. Position 0 is the relaxed (unstretched) position of the mass. 0 M E At which point is the magnitude of the force on the mass maximum? A) 0 B) M C) E At which point is the magnitude of the acceleration of the mass maximum? A) 0 B) M C) E At which point is the elastic potential energy maximum? A) 0 B) M C) E The force on the mass is maximum at point E , since the force Fspring = –kx is maximum magnitude there. The acceleration is maximum at point E (Newton's second law says Fnet = m a, so the acceleration is max when Fnet is max.) The elastic potential energy (PEelas = ½ kx2) is maximum at E (where x is max). CTEnergy-12. A spring-loaded dart gun shoots a dart straight up into the air, and the dart reaches a maximum height of h = 3 m. The same dart is shot straight up a second time from the same gun, but this time the spring is compressed twice as much before firing. How far up does the dart go this time, neglecting friction and assuming an ideal spring? A) 2h = 6 m D) h/4 = 0.75 m B) 4h = 12 m C) 8h = 24 m E) h/2 = 1.5 m Answer: Use conservation of energy and write Ei = Ef with the initial position = where the dart is inside the gun, with the spring cocked, and the final position = top of the trajectory. Let's set h = 0 at the initial position. KE i PE grav,i PE elas,i KE f PE grav,f PE elas,f 0 0 1 2 1 2 k x2 0 mgh 0 k x2 m g h x 2 h , x 2 constant h C h Here C is a constant (C = 2mg/k). Since x2 is proportional to h, when x is doubled [ x 2x , x2 (2x)2 = 4 x2 ] , h is increased by a factor of 4. It may be easier to see this by setting up a ratio: C h2 x2 22 x1 C h1 2x1 x12 2 4x12 4 x12 CTEnergy-13. A spring-loaded dart gun shoots a dart straight up into the air, and the dart reaches a maximum height of h = 24 m. The same gun is reloaded with the spring compressed the same amount, but now the gun is aimed at an angle of 45o to the horizontal. Will the dart reach the same maximum height of 24m? Assume no frictional losses. A) Yes, the dart will reach the same height B) No, the dart will not reach the same height. Answer: No. We can see why this must be, by considering conservation of energy. When fired at 45o, the dart has some horizontal motion when it is at the top of it trajectory. So it always has some KE, and its initial PEelastic is never fully converted into PEgrav. CTEnergy-14. A hockey puck slides without friction along a frozen lake toward an ice ramp and plateau as shown. The speed of the puck is 4m/s and the height of the plateau is 1m. Will the puck make it all the way up the ramp? v = 4m/s A) Yes B) No h = 1m C) impossible to determine without knowing the mass of the puck. Answer: We have to do a quick calculation. Setting y = 0 at the bottom of the ramp, we have.. KEi PEi 1 2 KE f PE f mv 0 0 mgR 2 The final energy (PE) would be mgR = mass(10m/s2)(1m) = mass10 m2/s2 The initial energy (KE) is (1/2)mv2 = mass(0.5)(16 m2/s2) = mass8 m2/s2 So the initial KE is not large enough; the puck will not make it to the top of the hill. CTEnergy-15. A small mass, starting at rest, slides without friction down a rail to a loop-de-loop as shown. The maximum height of the loop is the same as the initial height of the mass. Will the ball make it to the top of the loop? A) Yes, the ball will make it to the top of the loop. B) No, the ball will not make it to the top. C) Not enough info to say, or don't know. Answer: No, the ball will not make it to the top. According to conservation of energy, in order for the ball to make it to the top of the loop, it must have some non-zero KE at the top of the loop (if it did have zero KE at the top of the loop, it would have fallen off the track before then, because it would have been going too slow.) Since it must have some KE at the top of the loop, some of its initial PEgrav was converted into that KE, so its PEgrav at the top of the loop must be less than the initial PEgrav. CTEnergy-16. A cart rolls without friction along a track. The graph of PE vs. position is shown. The total mechanical energy (KE + PE) is 45kJ. The top of the hill at x = 62 m is round, and the bottom of the valley near x = 130 m is flat. 50 E_tot 40 PE(kJ) 30 20 10 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 x(m) To within 5kJ, what is the maximum KE over the stretch of track shown? A) 25kJ B) 7kJ C) 45kJ D) 35 kJ Answer: Max KE of 35 kJ occurs at about x = 130 m When the KE is a minimum (over this stretch of track), what is the direction of the acceleration? A) up B) down C) right D) Left E) some other direction (at an angle) or zero. Answer: KE is min at top of hill near x = 62 m. At the top, the acceleration is down. When moving along a circular path at constant (or approximately constant speed), the acceleration is toward the center of the circle. When the KE is max, what is the direction of the acceleration? A) up B) down C) right D) Left E) some other direction (at an angle) or zero. Answer: Along the flat portion of the valley, the velocity is constant, and the accleration is zero. CTEnergy-17. A cart rolls without friction along a track. The graph of PE vs. position is shown. The total mechanical energy (KE + PE) is 0 kJ. 0kJ -20kJ -40kJ -60kJ 20m 40m 60m What is the MAX KE of the cart during its journey (to within 5kJ)? A) 35kJ B) 48kJ C) 16kJ D) -16kJ E) None of these/don't know Answer: Max KE is where PE is min. Max KE = +48 kJ Etot = 0 PE = –48kJ KE = +48kJ Suppose the cart is at position x = 20m, is moving right, and has total energy Etot = –20kJ. Will the cart make it over the hill at x=38m? A) Yes. B) No. Answer: No. The "turning point" = where the cart slows to a stop and turns around. The turning point is where the Etot line intersects the PE curve. This is where KE = 0 because Etot = KE + PE. Etot = –20 kJ CTEnergy-18. Elevator 1 can carry a load of mass m up a distance h in a time t, before the engine overheats. Its power output is P1. Elevator 2 can carry the same load up twice the distance (2h) in twice the time (2t). What is its power output P2 ? A) P2 = P1 B) P2 = 2P1 C) P2 = 4P1 D) None these Elevator 3 can carry twice the load (2m) up twice the distance (2h) in the same time (t) as elevator 1. What is its power output P3 ? A) P3 = P1 B) P3 = 2P1 C) P3 = 4P1 D) None these 2h time 2t 2h time t h time t m m 1 Answers: 2m 2 3 P2 = work/time = mg(2h)/2t = mgh/t = P1 P3 = work/time = (2m)g(2h)/t = 4mgh/t = 4P1 CTEnergy-19. A hockey puck sliding on an ice rink is moving at 1 m/s when it slides onto a carpet that someone left on the ice. The puck comes to rest after moving 1m on the carpet. How far along the carpet would the puck go, if its initial speed was 2m/s? A) 1.5m B) 2m C) 3m D) 4m E) Impossible to determine. (Hint: Apply the Work-Energy Theorem. If the puck slides twice as far, the friction does twice as much (negative) work.) Answer: 4 m. We have to do a calculation to see this. This is a case with friction, but the work-energy principle still applies. Friction does negative work here, so we take absolute values just to get rid of the minus signs. Wfric KE (since PE = 0) K mg x 1 2 m v2 x v2 Warm-up question) How much more KE does the puck have moving at 2 m/s compared to moving at 1 m/s? A) 2 times as much much Answer: 4 times as much. B) twice as much C) 3 times as much D) 4 times as
