  6. A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 6.00 m above the street below (Fig. P4.25). the vertical wall of the building is h 5 7.00 m high, forming a 1-m-high railing around the playground. A ball has fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by launching it at an angle of u 5 53.0° above the horizontal at a point d 5 24.0 m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20 s to reach a point vertically above the wall.

  9. The top end of a spring is held fixed. A block is hung on the bottom end as in Figure OQ15.13a, and the frequency f of the oscillation of the system is measured. The block, a second identical block, and the spring are carried up in a space shuttle to Earth orbit. The two blocks are attached to the ends of the spring. The spring is compressed without making adjacent coils touch (Fig. OQ15.13b), and the system is released to oscillate while floating within the shuttle cabin (Fig. OQ15.13c). What is the frequency of oscillation for this system in terms of f? (a)f2(b)f2(c) f (d) 2f(

  10. A vector points from the origin into the second quadrant of the xy plane. What can you conclude about its components? (a) Both components are positive. (b) The x component is positive, and the y-component is negative. (c) The x-component is negative, and the y-component is positive. (d) Both components are negative. (e) More than one answer is possible.
