Classical physics adequately describes the motion of a ball and the motion of dust particles. It also describes Newton's law of motion, Newton's law of gravitation, Laws of thermodynamics, Maxwell's electromagnetism and Lorentz force. Classical physics easily describes the system of heavenly bodies like the Sun, the Earth and the Moon. However, it is inadequate for describing systems of particles which have sizes much smaller than (e.g., atom, nuclei and other elementary particles).

The figure shows a heavy block kept on a frictionless surface and being pulled by two ropes of equal mass m. At t = 0, the force on the left rope is withdrawn but the force on the right end continues to act. Let F  and F be the magnitudes of the forces exerted by right rope and the left rope on the block, respectively:
  1. F = F = F for t < 0
  2. F = F = F + mg for t < 0
  3. F = F, F = F for t > 0
  4. < F, F = F for t > 0

A student begins to push a box in a straight line on a horizontal floor from a position of rest. Floor is rough with a small friction coefficient. Initially he applies a constant hard push on the box to get it moving and attain a maximum velocity. Then he pushes mildly to keep the box moving with constant velocity. Finally he pulls back the box to bring it to stop. Which of the following graphs are correct?
  1. Option 1
  2. Option 2
  3. Option 3

A car is making a turn on a level road. The car maintains a constant speed v, the radius of the turn is r, and the coefficient of static friction between the car's tires and the road is s. Using an FBD and N2L, you can derive the following model for the minimum coefficient of static friction (us) needed to keep the car from skidding during a turn: You're NOT asked to derive this model, but it would be good practice! Just no practice work in your solution, please. One way to think of this coefficient is as a measure of how well the tires can grip the road. For new tires on a dry road, s is high (closer to 1), making it easier for the car to avoid skidding. If the tires are bald, or the road is wet or icy, then s will be low (closer to 0), and the car is more likely to skid. In those terms, the model's s is the minimum grip the tires need to make the turn without skidding. (Grip, of course, is not a technical term, and it isn't a force.) a) Prove that this model passes the smell test. Show all algebra. b) Imagine an experiment in which you try making the same turn at various speeds. Does the model predict that you're more likely to skid at higher speeds or lower speeds? Explain. Does the model's prediction match what you'd expect? Explain. c) Now imagine you're taking different turns: some sharp, some wide, but all at the same speed. Does the model predict that you'd be more likely to skid on a wide turn or a sharp turn? Explain. Does this prediction match common sense or experience? Explain.
