Modified True/False
Indicate whether the sentence or statement is true or false. If false, change the identified word or phrase to make the
sentence or statement true.
____ 1. Work is done when the force and the displacement are in the same direction. _________________________
____ 2. More work is done to lift a 2.00-kg object a distance of 1.00 m at a constant velocity than to push a 1.00-kg
block a distance of 1.00 m with a force of 19.6 N. ______________________________
____ 3. Kinetic energy is a vector quantity. _________________________
____ 4. To raise a 2.3-kg mass from its resting place on a table, more work is done by lifting it diagonally than lifting
it straight up. ___________________________________
____ 5. A car speeds up as it descends a hill, gaining gravitational potential energy. _________________________
____ 6. A group of three balls at the top of three different frictionless ramps drop the same vertical distance with the
same final speed regardless of the shape of the ramp. _________________________
Multiple Choice
Identify the letter of the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.
Completion
Complete each sentence or statement.
21. No work is done when the angle between the force and the displacement is ____________________.
22. Friction causes kinetic energy to transform into ____________________ energy.
Short Answer
23. A cannon ball is fired with a speed of 88 m/s from the top of a cliff. It strikes the plain below with a speed of
91 m/s. If we neglect air friction, how high is the cliff?
24. A small spring with a force constant of 83 N/m is held vertically and then stretched 18 cm. A 1.8-kg mass is
attached to it and then released. Calculate the acceleration of the mass at the moment of release.
25. Should car bumpers act as an ideal spring?
Problem
26. A 0.20 kg mass is hung from a vertical spring of force constant 55N/m. When the spring is released from
its unstretched equilibrium position, the mass is allowed to fall. Use the conservation of energy to
determine:
a) the speed of the mass after it falls 1.5cm.
