A 1.5-kg box is released from rest on a frictionless surface that is sloped at θ = 35◦ above the horizontal.After sliding 1.0 m down the slope, the box transitions smoothly to a rough, horizontal surface, slides forsome distance, and then comes to a stop. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and thehorizontal surface is 0.12, how far along the horizontal surface does the box travel?
A 3kg box with an initial velocity of 7.41 m/s is sliding upon a frictionless plane until it encounters a rough surface 4m in length and a friction coefficient of 0.62. Determine the final velocity of the box.
A box with a mass of 7.24 kg is held at the top of frictionless inclined plane of length L = 10.9 m and an inclination angle 0 = 26.9 degrees above the horizontal. The box is released from rest and stops at a distanced = 22.62 m from the bottom of the inclined plane along the rough horizontal surface. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the rough horizontal surface?
A block slides along a track with an initial velocity vo = 7.0 m/s from one level to a higher level after passing through an intermediate valley. The difference h from the initial position to the elevated track is 0.89 m. The track is frictionless until reaches the top. There (at the top), a frictional force stops the block in a distance d. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.60. Find the distance d.

The block slides up a slope to a height of 3.00 m and then slides across a 2.50 m long rough surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to 0.325. The block continues to travel to the right and bumps into a massless spring with a spring constant (k) equal to 2320 N/m. a) How much does the spring get compressed by the block with respect to its equilibrium length? Please answer with a positive number in units of metres, with 3 sig figs. Start with conservation of energy: Er = Ei + WNC , and show all steps. b) What is the potential energy stored by the spring when the mass comes to a stop?

An M = 22.4 kg sled slides on a rough horizontal ground. The sled hits a spring when it is traveling with a horizontal velocity of vi = 12.3 m/s. The sled compresses the spring at a distance of x = 2.12 m before coming to rest. If the force constant of the spring is k = 550 N/m, find the effective coefficient of kinetic friction, μk, between the sled and the ground
The ball launcher in a pinball machine has a spring that has a force constant of 50.0 N/m. The surface on which the ball moves is inclined 10.0° with respect to the horizontal. The spring is initially compressed 5.00 cm. Find the distance along the incline that the ball will go to (from the mean position of the spring), if the friction force = 0.1N. Mass of the ball = 20 gram.
A 13.0kg stone slides down an icy, essentially frictionless, hill that is shown in the figure. At the top of the hill, the stone is moving at 1.75m/s down the hill. While the hill is frictionless, the stone experiences friction along the level, rough ground (beyond the base of the hill) all the way to a wall. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.800 and 0.300 respectively. The stone slides along the ground for 9.15m before making contact with a long spring, which has a spring constant of 25.0N/m. (“Long” in this case means that the spring is sufficiently long to stop the stone before it hits the wall.) Will the stone move again after it has been stopped by the spring?

A daredevil wishes to bungee-jump from a hot-air balloon 64.5 m above a carnival midway. He will use a piece of uniform elastic cord tied to a harness around his body to stop his fall at a point 12.0 m above the ground. Model his body as a particle and the cord as having negligible mass and a tension force described by Hooke's force law. In a preliminary test, hanging at rest from a 5.00-m length of the cord, the jumper finds that his body weight stretches it by 1.65 m. He will drop from rest at the point where the top end of a longer section of the cord is attached to the stationary balloon. (a) What length of cord should he use? m(b) What maximum acceleration will he experience? m/s2
