10. Block 1 with a mass of 1.0 kg slides down a frictionless ramp with a height of 3.0 m and cllides with block 2 which has a mass of 2.0 kg. The flat surface has friction with a friction coefficient of 0.50. 2 a. Determine the speed of block 1 when it reaches the bottom of the ramp.
You and your friends pull your car off a mountain road onto an overlook to take pictures of the frozen lake below. You lose your footing on the packed snow, fall over the cliff, and land in a soft snow bank on a ledge, 10 feet below the edge. The cliff's wall is too smooth to climb upwards and too steep and dangerous to climb the remaining 300 feet to the bottom. While trying to think your way out of your predicament, you realize one reason you had slipped was that you had misjudged how the cliff sloped towards the edge (a decline of about 5-10 degrees). There is nothing near the edge to which your friends can tie a rope, and they fear the footing is too slippery for them to pull you to the top. However, they can get the car close enough to the edge to tie the rope to the bumper and hang it over the edge. You are worried, however, that the car might slip over the edge as well. On your phone (which has survived the fall) you look up the coefficient of static friction of snow tires on…
A student releases a 3.9kg cart from the top of ramp and starts a stopwatch. The length from the front of the cart to the end of the ramp and the distance from the end of the ramp to the stopper are shown. Neglect backwards friction and drag and assume the cart does not lose speed transitioning from the ramp to the floor.
