A 1700 kg car is driving down a highway at a constant velocity when a deer jumps out onto the road 59.6 m ahead. The coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road is 0.21. Calculate the initial velocity of the car if it is able to stop just before hitting the deer. (You do not need to account for reaction time of the driver. Assuming the car is breaking the entire 59.6 m distance and that friction is the only force stopping the car.) v0 = m/s

Let us make the (unrealistic) assumption that a boat of mass m gliding with initial velocity v0 in water is slowed by a viscous retarding force of magnitude bv2, where b is a constant, (a) Find and sketch v(t). How long does it take the boat to reach a speed of v0/l000? (b) Find x(t). How far does the boat travel in this time? Let m = 200 kg, v0 = 2 m/s, and b = 0.2 Nm-2s2.
The brakes on a big truck fail and it is forced to use a runaway truck lane. The lane is perfectly horizontal, and full of deep gravel, creating a coefficient of kinetic friction between the truck and the gravel of 0.80. The truck enters the lane at moving 35 m/s (about 80 mph). How far does the truck travel before it stops?
A 2110 kg car traveling at 8.4 m/s collides with a 2730kg car that is initially at rest at the stoplight. The cars stick together and move 3.30 m before friction causes them to stop. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cars and the road, assuming that the negative acceleration is constant and that all wheels on both cars lock at the time of impact.

An empty box is travelling on the conveyor with 0.2 m/s, then 12 kg package is dropped into this box with 1 m/s speed. When dropped, package and box are immediately sticked together. Friction coefficeient between the box and the conveyor is μk = 0.2 . After the package dropped, package and box start sliding on the conveyor for some distance, d for t(sliding) amount of time. Determine the distance, d.
A 1370-kg car is skidding to a stop along a horizontal surface. The car decelerates from 27.6 m/s to a rest position in 3.15 seconds. Assuming negligible air resistance, determine the coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road surface.
In attempting to pass the puck to a teammate, a hockey player gives it an initial speed of 2.43 m/s. However, this speed is inadequate to compensate for the kinetic friction between the puck and the ice. As a result, the puck travels only one-half the distance between the players before sliding to a halt. What minimum initial speed should the puck have been given so that it reached the teammate, assuming that the same force of kinetic friction acted on the puck everywhere between the two players?

A crate rests on the flatbed of a truck that is initially traveling at 15 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the truck is brought to a halt in a distance of 38 m. If the deceleration of the truck is constant, what is the minimum coefficient of friction between the crate and the truck that is required to keep the crate from sliding?
