60.A 60.0-kg skier with an initial speed of 12.0 m/s coasts up a 2.50-m high rise as shown. Find her final speed at the top, given that the coefficient of friction between her skis and the snow is 0.80. K₁ 35° V₁ = ? 2.5 m
Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the drive force is shut off, the snowmobile coasts to a halt. The snowmobile and its rider have a mass of 139 kg. Under the influence of a drive force of 180 N, it is moving at a constant velocity whose magnitude is 5.43 m/s. The drive force is then shut off. Find (a) the distance in which the snowmobile coasts to a halt and (b) the time required to do so. (a) S = (b) t = i i
A 2.1 x 10-kg car starts from rest at the top of a 5.8-m-long driveway that is inclined at 15° with the horizontal. If an average friction force of 4.0 x 103N impedes the motion, find the speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway. Enter a number. differs from the correct answer by more than 10%.

Sometimes, steep roads going down have a small safety road by the side that goes up, which vehicules can use in an emergency, to slow down. A 3362.6 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 14 degrees that the driver can use to stop the truck. The truck hits the ramp moving at 20.58 m/s and then travels 35.6 meters up the ramp before it comes to a stop. What work is done by the gravel to stop the truck?
You are driving your car on a straight road with a coefficient of friction between the tires and the road of 0.55. A large piece of debris falls in front of your view and you immediate slam on the brakes, leaving a skid mark of 30.5 m (100-feet) long before coming to a stop. A policeman sees your car stopped on the road, looks at the skid mark, and gives you a ticket for traveling over the 13.4 m/s (30 mph) speedlimit. Draw the FBD of the car with complete details.
Suppose I need to toss an object of mass 5.2 up onto a shelf 5.94 meters above where my hands can reach. What is the minimum speed of toss necessary to do this? Your answer should be in meters per second, but don't write teh unit, just the number. You can approximate the acceleration due to gravity at the earth's surface as 10 meters per square second.
Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the drive force is shut off, the snowmobile coasts to a halt. The snowmobile and its rider have a mass of 143 kg. Under the influence of a drive force of 220 N, it is moving at a constant velocity whose magnitude is 4.38 m/s. The drive force is then shut off. Find (a) the distance in which the snowmobile coasts to a halt and (b) the time required to do so. (a) s= (b) t = i i + +
An ice hockey puck is sliding over a frictionless horizontal surface with a constant velocity of vo = 10.2 m/s. Find the velocity of the puck after it passes a rough area of length L 6 m and with the kinetic friction coefficient u = 0.33 as shown below. Hint: the mass of the puck is not needed, you can either calculate everything per unit of mass or, if it helps, take m 160 grams. %3D %3D %3D %3D m Vo L The steps to follow: (1) find the initial KE of the puck; (2) find the work done by the friction force (should be negative); (3) find the final kinetic energy as KE; = KE; + W, meaning that some of the initial kinetic energy is lost due to the work done by friction; (4) from the final KE find the final speed. The final speed of the puck, Vf =7.28 X Units m/s %3D If the initial speed of the puck is not high enough the puck will get stuck in the rough area. At what minimal initial speed should the puck move to barely make it through the rough area? The minimal initial velocity, Vmin =…
A semitrailer is coasting downhill along a mountain highway when its brakes fail. The driver pulls onto a runaway-truck ramp that is inclined at an angle of 14.08 above the horizontal. The semitrailer coasts to a stop after traveling 154 m along the ramp. What was the truck’s ini- tial speed? Neglect air resistance and friction.
