8 In Fig. 8-25, a block slides along a track that descends through distance h. The track is frictionless except for the lower section. There the block slides to a stop in a certain distance D because of friction. (a) If we decrease h, will the block now slide to a stop in a distance that is greater than, less than, or equal to D? (b) If, instead, we increase the mass of the block, will the stopping distance now be greater than, less than, or equal to D? Figure 8-25 Question 8.

A 60 kg skier starts from rest at height H = 20 m above the end of a ski-jump ramp (Fig. 8-37) and leaves the ramp at angle 9=28°. Neglect the effects of air resistance and assume the ramp is frictionless. (a) What is the maximum heighth of his jump above the end of the ramp? (b) If he increased his weight by putting on a backpack, would h then be greater, less, or the same? H End of ramp Figure 8-37 Problem 22.
A 500-g block is shot up the incline in Fig. 6-6 with an initial speed of 200 cm/s. How far up the incline will it go if the coefficient of friction between it and the incline is 0.150? 25° Fig. 6-6
A 4.25 kg block is projected at 5.40 m/s up a plane that is inclined at 30.0° with the horizontal. The block slides some distance up the incline, stops turns around and slides back down to the bottom. When it reaches the bottom of the incline again, it is traveling with a speed of 3.80 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.500, how far up the incline did the block slide?
As shown in the figure below, a 2.25 kg block is released from rest on a ramp of height h When the block is released, it slides without friction to the bottom of the ramp, and then continues across a surface that is frictionless except for a rough patch of width 15.0 cm that has a coefficient of kinetic friction - 0.750. Find h (in m) such that the block's speed after crossing the rough patch is 3.10 m/s. Additional Materials muh puch mining 15.0 cm Reading

QI) ( A block of mass m-10 kg is on a frictionless horizontal surface and pushed against the spring, whose spring constant k-240 N/m, compressing the spring by 3m. The block is then released from rest. The block is observed to move up the incline and come back down, hitting and 771 compressing the spring by a maximum distance of Im. The inclined plane has www. friction and makes an angle of 9 = 37° with the horizontal. a) Find the work done by friction from the moment the block is released till the moment it strikes the spring again. b) What is the maximum height the block can reach? c) Find the kinetic friction coefficient between the block and the inclined plane.
