    This document is the midterm exam for a General Physics I course. It contains 6 physics problems worth a total of 110% of the exam grade. Problem 1 involves analyzing a position-time graph to determine average and instantaneous velocities. Problem 2 involves kinematics calculations for a car stopping over a crumple zone. Problem 3 involves calculating properties of the Lennard-Jones potential model for atomic interactions. The remaining problems cover topics of linear momentum conservation, moment of inertia, and kinetic energy of a rolling solid sphere. Students are allowed calculators, reference tables, and dictionaries to solve the problems in pencil or pen over the exam period.

    1. Position, Time and velocity: (20%) A position-time graph
    for a particle moving along the x axis is shown in the figure
    to the right. (a) Find the average velocity in the time interval
    1.50 s to 4.00 s. (b) Determine the instantaneous
    velocity at 2.00 s by measuring the slope of the
    tangent line shown in the graph. (c) At what value of is
    the velocity zero?
    2. Kinematics: (20%) The front 1.20 m of a 1 400-kg car is designed as a “crumple zone” that
    collapses to absorb the shock of a collision. If a car traveling 25.0 m/s stops uniformly in
    1.20 m, (a) how long does the collision last, (b) what is the magnitude of the average force
    on the car, and (c) what is the acceleration of the car? Express the acceleration as a multiple
    of the acceleration due to gravity.
    3. Lennard-Jones Potential: (25%) The potential energy associated with the force between
    two neutral atoms in a molecule can be modeled by the Lennard-Jones potential as
      
    U ( x)  4 ( )12  ( ) 6  , where x is the separation of the atoms. (a)What is the most
     x x 
    likely distance between the two atoms? (10%) (b) Given =0.263 nm, and =1.51×10-22J
    are two typical constants in a molecule, what is the atom separation in a typical chemical
    bond? (5%) (c) Draw the potential curve qualitatively (5%) (d)When the two atoms are
    separated at a distance of 4.5×10-10 m, the two atoms are subject to a restoration or
    repelling force? (5%), (e) Explain you answer in (d) (5%)
    This problem is from Page 201 (Example 7.9) of text book; in lecture notes p8-4
    4. Linear momentum conservation: (15%) Two masses are in a collision course with mass
    M1, M2 and velocities V1 and V2, respectively. Using Newton’s third law, derive (or prove)
    the conservation of linear momentum in an isolated system.
    5. Moment of Inertia: (20%) What is the moment of inertia of a solid annular cylinder with
    total mass M, with outer radius R2, and Inner radius R1, rotating about any of its central
    axis?
    6. Solid sphere rolling down an inclined plan: (20%) A sphere rolls without sliding down
    an inclined plane making an angle  with the horizon. The solid sphere has a total mass M,
    radius R and rotational moment of inertia ICM; the inclined plane has a length L, and its
    height is H. (a) What is its kinetic energy when it is rolling down from top with angular
    velocity ? (b) What is its translational velocity of the center of mass (VCM) in terms of
    parameters given?
