    This document contains 10 physics problems related to Newton's laws of motion and forces. The problems involve calculating forces, accelerations, tensions and other quantities for situations like a skier moving down a slope, model airplanes in flight, masses on inclined planes and pulleys, and people pulling boats. The context is a tutorial for a foundation physics class covering Newton's laws of motion and forces.

    Newton’s laws of motion and Forces
    (July 2020 Class)

    1. A 71 kg skier speeds down a trail, as shown in the figure. The surface is smooth and inclined
    at an angle of θ = 26° with the horizontal.

    (a) Draw a free-body diagram for the skier.


    (b) Determine the magnitude of the normal force acting on the skier.
    2. The air exerts a forward force of 10 N on the propeller of a 0.20 kg model airplane. If
    the plane accelerates forward at 2.0 m/s2, what is the magnitude of the resistive force
    exerted by the air on the airplane?
    3. Find the tension in each cable (labeled as 𝑇"⃗$ and 𝑇
    "⃗% in the diagram below) supporting
    o
    a 600 N mass, where θ2 = 37.0 .

    4. Two people are pulling a boat through the water with ropes. Each exerts a force of
    600 N directed at a 30.0o angle with respect to the forward motion of the boat. If the
    boat moves at a constant velocity, find the resistive force 𝐹 "⃗ exerted by the water
    on the boat
    5. Two packing crates of masses 10.0 kg and 5.0 kg are connected by a light string that
    passes over a frictionless pulley. The 10.0 kg mass hangs vertically from the pulley and
    the 5.0 kg mass slides on a frictionless surface that is inclined from the horizontal at an
    angle of 40.0o. Find (a) the acceleration of the 5.0 kg crate and (b) the tension in the
    string.
    6. Two objects with masses of 3.0 kg and 5.0 kg are connected by a light string that passes
    over a frictionless pulley. Determine (a) the tension in the string, (b) the acceleration of
    each object, and (c) the distance each object will move in the first second of motion if
    both objects start from rest.
    7. The coefficient of static friction between a 3.0 kg crate and a 35.0o incline is 0.300.
    What minimum force 𝐹 "⃗ must be applied to the crate perpendicular to the incline to
    prevent the crate from sliding down the incline?
    8. A 75 kg man standing on a scale in an elevator notes that as the elevator rises, the scale
    reads 825 N. What is the acceleration of the elevator?
    9. A block of mass m 55.8 kg is pulled up a 𝜃 =25° incline as in the Figure below with a force
    of magnitude 𝐹⃗ = 32 N. (a) Find the acceleration of the block if the incline is frictionless.
    (b) Find the acceleration of the block if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block
    and incline is 0.10.

    10. Find the acceleration of the masses shown in the figure, given that m1 = 0.9 kg, m2 = 2.0 kg,
    and m3 = 3.1 kg. Assume the table is frictionless and the masses move freely.
