65.
Three stones of different mass (1 m, 2m & 3m) are thrown vertically upward with different velocities (l v, 2v &
3v respectively). The diagram indicates the mass and velocity of each stone. Rank from high to low the
maximum height of each stone. Assume air resistance is negligible.
(A) I, II, III (B) II, I, III (C) III, II, I (D) I, III, II
66. A rubber ball bounces on the ground as shown. After each bounce, the ball reaches one-half the height of the
bounce before it. If the time the ball was in the air between the first and second bounce was 1 second. What
would be the time between the second and third bounce?
(A) 0.50 sec (B) 0.71 sec (C) 1.0 sec (D) 1.4 sec
67. The driver of a car makes an emergency stop by slamming on the car's brakes and skidding to a stop. How far
would the car have skidded if it had been traveling twice as fast?
(A) 4 times as far (B) the same distance (C) 2 times as far (D)the mass of the car must be known
68. A snail is moving along a straight line. Its initial position is x0 = –5 meters and it is moving away from the
origin and slowing down. In this coordinate system, the signs of the initial position, initial velocity and
acceleration, respectively, are
Choice x0 v0 a
(A) – + +
(B) – – +
(C) – – –
(D) – + –
69. A rock is dropped from the top of a tall tower. Half a second later another rock, twice as massive as the first, is
dropped. Ignoring air resistance,
(A) the distance between the rocks increases while both are falling.
(B) the acceleration is greater for the more massive rock.
(C) they strike the ground more than half a second apart.
(D) they strike the ground with the same kinetic energy.
70. A cart is initially moving at 0.5 m/s along a track. The cart comes to rest after traveling 1 m. The experiment is
repeated on the same track, but now the cart is initially moving at 1 m/s. How far does the cart travel before
coming to rest?
(A) 1 m (B) 2 m (C) 3 m (D) 4 m
