60. GO A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. Friction is neg- ligible. The person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. The to- tal mass of the wagon, rider, and rock is 95.0 kg. The mass of the rock is 0.300 kg. Initially the wagon is rolling forward at a speed of 0.500 m/s. Then the person throws the rock with a speed of 16.0 m/s. Both speeds are relative to the ground. Find the speed of the wagon after the rock is thrown directly forward in one case and directly backward in another.

IVIT IN UTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANUTHER A baseball with a mass of 145 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 39.7 m/s (89 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.15 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.6 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

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?
A 686 N park ranger uses a basket and a rope-pulley system to transport an injured sea turtle up to a plateau, as shown in the figure. The sea turtle and basket together have a mass of 50.0 kg. The ranger holds firmly onto the rope and walks away from the cliff, speeding up at a steady rate of 0.300 m/2 2. He thereby causes the basket (and the turtle) to accelerate straight upwards at the same rate. Assume that the rope has negligible weight and that the pulley is ideal, having no friction in its bearing. Also assume that as the ranger trudges along, his feet do not slip on the ground. +x 26. The tension in the rope is equal to A. 490 N. B. 686 N. C. 475 N. D. 505 N. E. 196 N. 27. The frictional force which the ground exerts on the ranger's feet has a magnitude of C. 526 N. A. 490 N.
