A car is traveling at 7.0 m/s when the driver applies the brakes. The car moves 1.5 m before it comes to a complete stop. If the car had been moving at 14 m/s, how far would it have continued to move after the brakes were applied? Assume the braking force in both cases is constant and the same.

4. Please answer in regular notation.
9. A 100 kg man gets in an elevator on the 10th floor. He stands still on a scale, which is placed on the floor of the elevator, before the doors close, and the scale reads a value equal to his weight (the largest force of gravity on him). The doors close, and the elevator starts moving downward toward the 1st floor. The elevator speeds up until it reaches the 8th floor, at which point the elevator travels at a constant velocity, which it maintains until it reaches the 3rd floor, at which point it starts slowing down at a constant rate and stops by the time it reaches the 1st floor. Rank from greatest to least, the following quantities at following floors: 2nd, 5th, 9th. Explain your answers. (a) His mass (the question is asking for a ranking of the person's mass on the 2nd floor vs. the mass on the 5th floor vs. the mass on the 9th floor.) (b) His weight (c) Magnitude of normal force he exerts on the scale (d) Magnitude of normal force he exerts on the elevator floor.
A 9500-kg test missile blasts off vertically from the ground with a constant upward acceleration of 2.28 m/s2 . When it has reached a height of 550 m, its engines suddenly fail; the only force acting on it is now gravity. a) What is the maximum height reached? b) How much time will elapse after engine failure before the rocket comes crashing down the ground, and how fast will it be moving just before it crashes?
A magician pulls a tablecloth from under a 200 g mug located 15.0 cm from the edge of the cloth. The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug and is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 15 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.
A car of mass 822 kg is traveling 26.4 m/a when the driver applies the brakes, which lock the wheels. The car skids for 4.47 s in the positive x direction before coming to rest.

2. A skater with mass 58 kg is holding one end of a rope and standing at rest on ice. Assume no friction. Another person with mass 78 kg is standing just off the ice on level ground and is holding the other end of the rope. The person standing on the ground pulls on the rope to accelerate the skater forward. The coefficient of static friction between the ground and the off-ice person is 0.65. Calculate the maximum possible acceleration of the skater. [ans: 8.6 m/s² [toward off-ice person]]

Two blocks are connected via a pulley, both blocks have a mass of 10.kg. One block rests on a horizontal surface and the other one hangs freely by a cord which passes over a pulley. Assume the cord does not stretch, ignore mass of pulley and cord, therefore acceleration is the same for both blocks and tension is the same for both blocks. The hanging block moves down so the block lying on the horizontal surface moves to the right. What is the acceleration (m/s^2) of the blocks if the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.50.
An object is moving in the absence of a net force. Which of the following best describes the object's motion? The object will speed up at a constant rate until it reaches a maximum speed. The object will slow down at a constant rate until coming to rest. The object will continue to move with a constant speed, traveling in a circular path. The object will stop moving immediately and remain at rest until acted on by a net force. The object will continue to move with a constant velocity.
77. A car is towing a boat on a trailer. The driver starts from rest and accelerates to a velocity of +11 m/s in a time of 28 s. The combined mass of the boat and trailer is 410 kg.
