### Problem StatementA daredevil on a motorcycle leaves the end of a ramp with a speed of 39.6 m/s as shown in the figure. If his speed is 37.1 m/s when he reaches the peak of the path, what is the maximum height that he reaches? Ignore friction and air resistance.### Diagram ExplanationThe diagram illustrates:- A motorcycle and rider launching off a ramp.- A dashed parabolic trajectory indicating the path of the motorcycle as it travels through the air.- The initial velocity vector of 39.6 m/s is shown along the ramp.- An arrow at the peak of the curve indicates a velocity of 37.1 m/s.- A vertical line labeled $ h $ represents the maximum height reached at the peak of the path.### SolutionTo solve for the maximum height $ h $, we will need to apply principles of physics, using energy conservation or kinematics, while considering the initial and final speeds given.

Since the friction and air resistance are ignored; only the gravitational force acts on the…

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°
