    A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 7.00 m above the street below. The

    I

    vertical wall of the building is 8.00 m high, forming a 1.00 m high railing around the

    playground. A ball has fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by

    I

    launching it at an angle of 53.0 above the horizontal at a point 27.0 m from the base

    of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20 s to reach a point vertically above the wall.

    (a)

    [7 pts ]

    (b

    [7 pts }

    Find the vertical distance, h, by which the ball clears the wall. ~

    (c)

    [ pts } Find the distance, d, from the wall to the point on the roof where the ball lands.

    A physical pendulum consists of a solid sphere and a rod that is rigidly attached to the sphere at

    point Q, directly opposite to the pivot point

    P

    The sphere has radius r and mass m, and the rod has

    length L and mass M.

    A block

    of

    mass m

    =

    0.20 kg is at rest at the height h

    =

    4.0 m on a smooth inclined plane as shown. It slides down onto

    frictionless surface and collides inelastically with a second block

    of

    identical mass. The velocity

    of

    the first block

    immediately after the collision

    is 1 3

    its velocity immediately before the collision and

    is

    in the same direction. The floo

    to the right

    of

    the second block is rough with a coefficient of kinetic friction lk

    =

    0.50. As result, the second block slide

    a distance d before coming to rest.

    n class, Adam did a demonstration in which he shot an arrow ofmass

    m 330 gm horizontally into a block

    of

    mass M 5.00 kg, which was suspended a

    distance L

    =

    75 cm below a pivot point P The arrow was embedded in the block

    m

    =- M

    and the system swung upwards such that the maximum horizontal displacement

    was observed

    to

    be

    15

    cm. Treat the arrow as a point mass.

    (a)

    [7 pIS ]

    Calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the system consisting

    of

    the arrow embedded in the block.

    (b) [7 pIS }

    Calculate

    the

    velocity

    ofthe

    arrow immediately before it struck the block.

    (c)

    [6 pis ]

    Calculate

    the

    angular momentum

    of

    the arrow relative to the axis

    of

    rotation immediately before impac

    Will this be the same as the angular momentum

    of

    the system immediately after impact? Explain.
