A 64.0 kg cheetah accelerates from rest to its top speed of 32.5 m/s. (a) How much net work (in J) is required for the cheetah to reach its top speed? (b) One food Calorie equals 4186 J. How many Calories of net work are required for the cheetah to reach its top speed? Note: Due to inefficiencies in converting chemical energy to mechanical energy, the amount calculated here is only a fraction of the energy that must be produced by the cheetah's body.

On board the starship Serenity, Captain Mal has two boxes connected together by a cord that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley mounted on the ceiling of the storage bay. The first box has a mass of 252.0kg and the second box has a mass of 278.0kg. If the 278.0kg box starts off at rest 2.60m above the ground, find the speed of the box when it reaches the ground. Assume the gravity on Serenity is 9.80m/s2.
