28. A curve on a racetrack has a radius of 80 m and is banked at 45°. Suppose that the road surface on the curve somehow became frictionless (perhaps caused by an ice storm or an oil spill) and a car needs to navigate this curve. What is the safe speed with which to take the curve without either sliding up or down the bank of the curve?

29. A convex lens has a focal length of 50 mm. How far from the lens must an object be placed if it is to form a virtual image magnified in size by a factor of three?

30. Consider the bicycle wheel shown below to be a ring with a 60 cm diameter and a mass of 1.5 kg. Attached to the wheel is a gear with a radius of 4.0 cm and negligible mass. A force of 20 N is applied tangentially to the gear for 4.0 s. Starting from rest, what linear speed does the wheel achieve, assuming it rolls without slipping?

 

31. The intensity level is measured to be 60 dB at a distance of 15 m from a speaker. What is the intensity level at a point 2.0 m from the speaker? Assume that the speaker radiates equally in all directions

32. A pine wood block is floating in a small pool. There is a second pine wood block that sits on top of the first and does not touch the water. If the top block is taken off and placed in the water, how does the new water level in the pool compare to the original water level?

33. Two cars are being tested on a track. Car 1 accelerates from rest on this straight track at a₁= 3.0m/s². Two seconds later, Car 2 accelerates from rest at a₂= 12.0 m/s². How much time after Car 1 starts will Car 2 pass Car 1?

34. The table shown below lists the finish times for the 2008 Men’s Olympic 100 m butterfly swim final in Beijing. From the data, what is the best estimate of the distance the 2nd place finisher, Cavic, was behind the 1st place finisher, Phelps?

 

37. The voltage across resistor R₄ is:

38. Shown is accelerometer data for an elevator ride in a skyscraper in Chicago. The spikes at roughly 10s and 72s are caused by the handling of the accelerometer which rested on the floor of the elevator and occurred before the elevator started moving up, and after it reached the top, respectively. What is the best estimate for the peak vertical speed for this elevator?

 

39. The picture shows two speakers, A and B, which emit the same 680-Hz tones in phase. Point P is located 1.000 m directly in front of Speaker A. A sound sensor at Point P records a minimum sound intensity. Speaker B is slowly moved away from Speaker A along the line joining them. How far must Speaker B be moved further from Speaker A until the sound sensor at Point P first records a maximum sound intensity?

 

42. Three identical samples of a monatomic ideal gas are taken from a temperature T to a temperature 2T. Sample A undergoes an adiabatic process. Sample B undergoes an isobaric process and Sample C undergoes an isochoric process. Which of the following correctly ranks the heats added to the samples during the three processes?

49. A lump of clay whose rest mass is 4.0 kg is traveling at three-fifths of the speed of light when it collides head-on with an identical lump going in the opposite direction at the same speed. If the two lumps stick together and no energy is radiated away, what is the mass of the composite lump?

50. One mole of ideal gas initially at temperature T₀ and volume V₀ undergoes a reversible isothermal expansion to V₁. If the ratio of specific heats is cp/cv = γ and if R is the gas constant, then the work done by the gas is:
