A 10.0 kg dog jumps up in the air to catch a ball. The dog's centre of mass is normally 0.2 mabove the ground and he is 0.5 m long. The lowest he can get his centre of mass is 0.12 m above the ground and the highest he can get his centre of mass above the ground before he can no longer push against the ground is 0.30 m. If the maximum force the dog can exert on the ground is 1.9 times the gravitational force the Earth exerts on him, to what height, h. (in m) can he jump above the ground? Enter your answer only (with no units) accurate to two decimal places below. h =

The coefficient of friction between the wheels of Yamaha motorcycle and the dry pavement is 0.79. An animal walks out into the road, causing a motorcyclist to slam on the brakes. The wheels stop turning, but the tires skid along the road, causing intense friction and heat. Determine the magnitude (positive) of the acceleration which the 217-kg motorcycle experiences while skidding to a stop. The mass includes the rider. Answer: m/s/s (or m/s²)

In the back of the truck is a 200kg box that has a coefficient of static friction of 0.8 and a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.4 between the truck and the box. You are driving on the freeway at 25m/s. There is a car ahead of you that is driving at 30m/s. Your front bumper is 30m behind the back of the first car. You would like to pass the other car and pull back into the same lane when your back bumper is 10m ahead of the front bumper of the first car in 5 seconds. The length of the car ahead of you is 3m and the length of your car is 4m.a) What minimum acceleration do you need to do this?b) What distance does your car travel in that time?c) Does the box in your truck start to slide off the truck?
