PHYSICS 20N UNIT 1 PROBLEM REVIEW A

NAME:

BE SURE TO SHOW EXPLICIT FORMULAS AND SUBSTITUTIONS FOR ALL QUESTIONS, WHERE APPROPRIATE. ROUND FINAL ANSWERS CORRECTLY; GIVE CORRECT UNITS AND DIRECTIONS FOR VECTORS. This unit contains considerable content – knowledge of physics, terms, etc. – that is not covered by this review. Be sure to review the text, quizzes, and your notes in preparation for the unit exam. 1. Calculate each of the following; round answers correctly. a)

16.1 + 84 - 1 = _________________

c)

(7.3)(43.5)(0.01) = _________________

b) 24 pencils divided into 2 boxes d) (3.4 x 10-3)÷(6.7 x 10-2) = _______________ _________________ 2. Convert each of the following. a)

1.20 cm = _________________ m

b) 0.0346 dN = _________________ daN

c)

4500 W = _________________ mW

d) 245 km/h = _________________ m/s

3. Write in opposite (scientific or positional) notation. a)

1.9 x 10-3 = _________________

b) 6.0 x 105 = _________________

c)

0.000 86 = _________________

d) 165 700 = _________________

4. A girl walks 4.0 km east in 2.0 h, then 2.0 km west in 0.5 h, and finally 8.0 km east in 2.1 h. Draw a vector sketch showing her motion. Find her average speed (distance divided by time) and average velocity (displacement divided by time – direction is the same as that of the displacement.)

___________________________ ___________________________ 5. A dog runs at 4.0 m/s a distance 20 m east, then turns and runs at the same speed north for 4.0 additional seconds. Find the dog’s final displacement (magnitude and direction) and average velocity (magnitude and direction) for the run.

___________________________ ___________________________ 6. A man walks from the front to the rear of a boat at a speed of 2.0 m/s with respect to the boat; the boat is moving south along a river at 8.0 m/s. What is the apparent velocity of the man as seen by a man standing on the bank of the river? ___________________________
