A 3.0-kg mass is released from rest at point A of a circular frictionless track of radius 0.40 m as shown in the figure. The mass slides down the track and collides with a 1.4-kg mass that is initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. If the masses stick together, what is their speed after the collision?
 
   


   
  a.
  2.1 m/s
   
  b.
  1.7 m/s
   
  c.
  1.9 m/s
   
  d.
  1.5 m/s
   
  e.
  2.3 m/s

Question 2

Two equal masses are raised at constant velocity by ropes that run over pulleys, as shown below. Mass B is raised twice as fast as mass A. The magnitudes of the forces are FA and FB, while the power supplied is respectively PA and PB. Which statement is correct?
 
 
 
   
  a.
  FB = FA; PB = PA.
   
  b.
  FB = FA; PB = 2 PA.
   
  c.
  FB = 2 FA; PB = PA.
   
  d.
  FB = 2 FA; PB = 2 PA.
   
  e.
  PA = FA; PB = FB.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
