CHAPTER 3
38. At the point shown  on diagram, the airplane is not yet traveling in a circular path but will be when it reaches the bottom of the dip.
| centripetal acceleration| = aR = V2/R, where V is the speed. At the bottom the vector points upward vertically. Find the range of speed  V such that the |centripetal acceleration |  is less than 5.5g. Above that level. the force of the interior of the airplane on the pilot will be so large as to cause internal injuries.  More in a later chapter (Ch. 6).
40.  See discussion related to figure 3.29, example 3.10 and example 3.11.
(a) Tan theta = (2.0  m/s) / (4.2 m/s) = 1/2.1. Find the magnitude of the angle  of  the net vector makes with East direction. The direction is South of East.   The magnitude V of the net vector may be obtained using the Pythagorean Theorem:  V2   = 2.02 + 4.22  .
(b) time = width of river/4.2 m/s
(c) distance = (2.0 m/s)*time 
CHAPTER 4
8.
sum of forces in x direction = pos - neg
m*ax = 0 - fk since there is no force in the positive x direction.
Thus:  magnitude of friction force = fk  = - m*ax  > 0, since the acceleration is negative. Compute the acceleration 
ax from the kinematic information and find the magnitude of the friction force.  
23. (a) m*ax = 0 - fk since there is no force in the positive x direction.
ax =  - fk /m.
Note the acceleration is negative  and  fk is 25 %  of the car's weight.
(b) Go back to Ch. 2 and use equation (2.13) and solve for  the displacement when the final velocity is zero and the initial velocity is given. 
33.  See lecture example 5.10, which includes a nice picture of the forces on a box being dragged by a man.
36.   A force  of magnitude F is applied to the left box, box 1. 
We do not show the vertical vertical forces which cancel out. We will discuss the vertical forces in class.
See the figures below that show the entire system followed by the  isolated boxes and let rightward be positive.
BOX 1: sum of forces in x direction = pos - neg
 m1*ax = F  -  f1 -  F12, where F12 is the magnitude of the contact force on 1 from 2.
BOX 2: sum of forces in x direction = pos - neg
 m2*ax = F21 - f2, where F21 is the magnitude of the contact force on 2 from 1.

Note F21= F12     = Fc = magnitude of the contact force between the boxes.
Thus:  

m1*ax = F  -  f1 -  Fc  .
m2*ax = Fc - f2 .
 

Add these two equations to cancel the contact force magnitude  Fc, and find the acceleration in the x direction. Note the magnitudes of the friction forces are given as  f1  and  f2 and are not necessarily equal.

 

48. (a) Sum of forces in x direction = pos - neg
m*ax = F - 0 = F  = magnitude of force of gun on bullet since there is NO friction.
(b)  See class notes and examples in book.
(c) Divide the acceleration above by g = 9.8 m/s2.
(d) Ch.  2 methods.
50. (a) In both cases the craft moves down. In one case the craft slows down, do the acceleration is up. In the other case the craft speeds up as it moves down, so the acceleration   is down. 
(c) Let down be positive.
If slowing down we have ma = pos - neg =  mg' - 25000 N, where a = -1.20 m/s2
If speeding up we have ma = pos - neg =  mg' - 10000 N, where a = +0.80 m/s2
Solve these two equations for for the mass m and for g', the gravitational acceleration on Planet X.
