A cookie jar is moving up a 45° incline. At a point 53 cm from the bottom of the incline (measured along the incline), the jar has a speed of 1.6 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between jar and incline is 0.14. (a) How much farther up the incline will the jar move? (b) How fast will it be going when it has slid back to the bottom of the incline? (c) Do the answers to (a) and (b) increase, decrease, or remain the same if we decrease the coefficient of kinetic friction (but do not change the given speed or location)?

Maria sets up a simple track for her toy block (m 0.54 m Need Help? = (a) Neglecting friction, what is the speed of the block when it reaches the bottom of the curve (the beginning of the horizontal section of track)? 3.25 m/s 0.40 kg) as shown in the figure below. She holds the block at the top of the track, 0.54 m above the bottom, and releases it from rest. (b) If friction is present on the horizontal section of track and the block comes to a stop after traveling 0.82 m along the bottom, what is the magnitude of the friction force acting on the block? 2.11 X Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%.

A 51.2 kg sled coasts down a hill, starting from rest. The hill is inclined at an angle of 20.8 degrees with respect to the horizontal and has a height of 7.25 m. The sled's blades have recently been greased so that the sled slides down the hill without friction. What is the final speed of the sled (in m/s) just as it reaches the bottom of the hill? Use g = 9.81 m/s2.
