27. Consider a large truck carrying a heavy load, such as steel beams. A significant hazard for the driver is that the load may slide forward, crushing the cab, if the truck stops suddenly in an accident or even in braking. Assume, for example, that a 10 000-kg load sits on the flatbed of a 20 000-kg truck mov- ing at 12.0 m/s. Assume that the load is not tied down to the truck, but has a coefficient of friction of 0.500 with the flatbed of the truck. (a) Calculate the minimum stopping distance for which the load will not slide forward relative to the truck. (b) Is any piece of data unnecessary for the solution?

4. A fisherman in a boat catches a shark with a harpoon. The shark struggles for a while and then becomes limp when at a distance of 300 m from the boat. The fisherman pulls the shark all the way to the boat by the rope attached to the harpoon. During this operation, the boat (initially at rest) moves 45 m in the direction of the shark. The mass of the boat is 5400 kg. What is the mass of the shark? Pretend that the water exerts no friction. (Hint: Friction is ignored, so there are no external forces, and the center of mass of the system (the shark and boat) should not move at all.) A) 953 kg B) 477 kg C) 318 kg from the left and of

10. A snowboarder starts at the top of a 160. m tall hill with a velocity of 3.00 m/s. The portion of the hill covered with snow is essentially frictionless, but the flat, horizontal section at the base of the hill covered with mud is not. If the snowboarder masses in at 80.0 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between board and mud is 0.750, how much distance is required for the snowboarder to come to rest?

Daredevil Darla has heard that to avoid injury when jumping out of her rocket she should bend her knees upon landing. Darla has a mass of 74 kg. If just before contact with the ground, she has a downward speed of 7.3 m/s, then. . . (a) In a stiff -legged landing she comes to a halt in 2.0 ms. Find the average net force that acts on her during this time. ( b) When she bends her knees, Darla comes to a halt in 0.10 s. Find the average net force now. (c) During the landing, there are two forces acting on Darla: the normal force from the ground points upward, while her weight force points downward. The average net force acting on Darla includes both of these forces. Taking into account the directions of the forces, find the force of the ground on Darla in parts (a) and (b).
