A ball can be rolled down one of four different ramps, as shown below. The final elevation loss of each of the ramps is the same. Neglecting friction, for which ramp will the speed of the ball be the highest at the bottom? Ramp Z Ramp X Ramp Y The speed of the ball will be the same for all ramps. Three cars (car F, car G, and car H) are moving with the same velocity, and slam on the brakes. The most massive car is car F, and the least massive is car H. Assuming all three cars have identical tires, which car travels the longest distance to skid to a stop? Car F. Car C Car H. They all travel the same distance in stopping

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?
A penguin slides down an icy incline on his stomach, as shown in the diagram below. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the incline and the penguin's stomach is 0.15. The angle of the incline is 0 = 25 degrees. The total distance down the incline is 25 meters. The penguin gets a running start so his speed is 2.5 m/s when he begins to slide down the incline. What is the penguin's speed when he reaches the bottom of the incline? Hint: use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the acceleration of the penguin on the incline, then use kinematic equations to calculate the speed of the penguin when he reaches the bottom. 2.5 m/s 25 m 25°

He starts from rest at the top of the track as seen in the figure below and begins a descent down the track, always maintaining contact with the surface.

A physics student ties a ball with a mass 0.30kg to a string which can exert a maximum force of 41 N without breaking. The student swings the ball in a circle with a radius of 0.91 m, slowly increasing the speed until the string breaks. The circle is oriented vertically so that the ball moves up and down while traveling in a circle. What is the speed of the ball as the string breaks?
