0 45 of 70 Suppose the Earth had no atmosphere and a ball were fired from the top of Mount Everest tangent to the ground. If the initial speed was large enough to cause the ball to move in a circular trajectory around the Earth, the ball’s acceleration would: • Be much less than g (because the ball doesn’t fall to the ground) • Be approximately g • Depend on the ball’s initial speed
0 44 of 70 The Moon does not fall to Earth because: • The net force on it is zero • It is beyond the main pull of Earth’s gravity • It is being pulled by the Sun and other planets as well as Earth • All of the above • None of the above
0 42 of 70 An object moves along the x-axis subject to a force described by the potential energy shown below. About what point can the object execute an oscillation? • A • B • C • All of the above • None of the above U(x) C A B x
0 39 of 70 A block hangs from a spring. The block is held at a position where the spring is unstretched and then released. What happens? • It remains at rest at the new equilibrium position. • It oscillates about the unstretched string position. • It oscillates about a position that is lower than its initial position. • It moves but not in simple harmonic motion because the net force is not proportional to the displacement.
