A 1320-kg car is being driven up a 9.80 ° hill. The frictional force is directed opposite to the motion of the car and has a magnitude of 518 N. A force F is applied to the car by the road and propels the car forward. In addition to these two forces, two other forces act on the car: its weight W and the normal force FN directed perpendicular to the road surface. The length of the road up the hill is 218 m. What should be the magnitude of F, so that the net work done by all the forces acting on the car is 195 kJ? Number i -3328.278 Units N

A student is asked to measure the acceleration of a glider on a frictionless, inclined plane, using an air track, a stopwatch, and a meterstick. The top of the track is measured to be 1.774 cm higher than the bottom of the track, and the length of the track is d = 127.1 cm. The cart is released from rest at the top of the incline, taken as x = 0, and its position x along the incline is measured as a function of time. For x values of 10.0 cm, 20.0 cm, 35.0 cm, 50.0 cm, 75.0 cm, and 100 cm, the measured times at which these positions are reached (averaged over five runs) are 1.02 s, 1.53 s, 2.01 s, 2.64 s, 3.30 s, and 3.75 s, respectively. (a) Construct a graph of x versus t2, with a best-fit straight line to describe the data. (b) Determine the acceleration of the cart from the slope of this graph. (c) Explain how your answer to part (b) compares with the theoretical value you calculate using a = g sin as derived in Example 4.3.
An athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a velocity of 8.5 m/s upward. What maximum height does she reach? (a) 13 m (b) 2.3 m (c) 3.7 m (d) 0.27 m (e) The answer cant be determined because the mass of the athlete isnt given.
Review. The mass of a car is 1 500 kg. The shape of the cars body is such that its aerodynamic drag coefficient is D = 0.330 and its frontal area is 2.50 m2. Assuming the drag force is proportional to 2 and ignoring other sources of friction, calculate the power required to maintain a speed of 100 km/h as the car climbs a long hill sloping at 3.20.
A 1.00-kg object slides to the right on a surface having a coefficient of kinetic friction 0.250 (Fig. P7.68a). The object has a speed of vi = 3.00 m/s when it makes contact with a light spring (Fig. P7.68b) that has a force constant of 50.0 N/m. The object comes to rest after the spring has been compressed a distance d (Fig. P7.68c). The object is then forced toward the left by the spring (Fig. P7.68d) and continues to move in that direction beyond the springs unstretched position. Finally, the object comes to rest a distance D to the left of the unstretched spring (Fig. P7.68e). Find (a) the distance of compression d, (b) the speed v at the unstretched position when the object is moving to the left (Fig. P7.68d), and (c) the distance D where the object comes to rest.

A student working on a school project modeled a trampoline as a spring obeying Hookes law and measured the spring constant of a certain trampoline as 4617 N/m. If a child of mass 27.0 kg compresses the trampoline vertically by a maximum of 0.25 m, while bouncing up and down, what is the childs acceleration at the moment of maximum compression?
When a body slides down an inclined plane, does the work of friction depend on the body’s initial speed? Answer the same question for a body sliding down a curved surface.
A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.
One great form of athletic competition for bulldogs, American pit bull terriers, huskies, and many other breeds is the weight pull. Many of these dogs can pull weights two orders of magnitude greater than their own weight! Railsplitter, an American pit bull terrier, can pull a sled that has a total weight of 2215 lb along a horizontal surface. Suppose he pulls with a horizontal force of 3.50 103 N while friction is also working against the sled. If the magnitude of the net acceleration of the sled is 0.152 m/s2, find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction, k, between the sled and the pulling surface. (The sled is normally on a set of rails.)
A car’s bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/ h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of the car. The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.200 m while bringing a 900-kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.1 m/s.
