A 719-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 4.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2-kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 4.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?

The roof of a tall building is 25 m above the ground. A rigid ball of mass 0.3 kg falls freely when dropped from the roof. It strikes the concrete floor on the ground with velocity v1. It then bounces to a maximum vertical height of 6 m. Calculate the velocity v1 when the ball first hits the floor.
A delivery person carries a stack of three boxes labeled 1, 2, and 3. Box 3 is on the bottom of the stack, and box 1 is on the top. The masses of boxes 1, 2, and 3 are mi = 1.5 kg, m2 = 2.5 kg, and m3 = 8.0 kg, respectively. The delivery person places the stack of boxes on an elevator floor, which then accelerates downward with a magnitude of a = 0.80 m/s². Assume that the positive direction is up. Calculate the contact force F1-2 that box 1 exerts on box 2 during the acceleration. F1-2 = N Calculate the contact force F3-2 that box 3 exerts on box 2 during the acceleration. F3-2 = N
The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C (mass 2.34 x 10-26 kg) decays by the process known as beta decay in which the nucleus emits an electron (the beta particle) and a subatomic particle called a neutrino. In one such decay, the electron and the neutrino are emitted at right angles to each other. The electron (mass 9.11 x 10-31 kg) has a speed of 5.00 x 107 m/s and the neutrino has a momentum of 8.00 x 10-24 kg • m/s. What is the recoil speed of the nucleus?
In a baseball game, one of the players graps the ball and lessens the influence of the ball by moving his hand back. The ball touches the player's hand at a speed of 140.4 km/h in the horizontal direction. The ball is 152 gr. The player moves his hand back with an average speed of 8 m/s over 14 cm in the horizontal direction. In this way, the player has caused the ball to stop. Calculate the average impulsive force applied on the hand of the player.
Two bumper cars at the county fair are sliding toward one another (see figure below). Initially, bumper car 1 is traveling to the east at 5.62 m/s, and bumper car 2 is traveling 60.0° south of west at 10.00 m/s. After they collide, bumper car 1 is observed to be traveling to the west with a speed of 3.24 m/s. Friction is negligible between the cars and the ground. (a) If the masses of bumper cars 1 and 2 are 588 kg and 633 kg respectively, what is the velocity of bumper car 2 immediately after the collision? (Express your answer in vector form. Enter your answer to at least three significant figures.) (b) What is the kinetic energy lost in the collision?
Problem B2. A small box of mass m = 1.50 kg starts from rest and glides down a smooth, frictionless hill from a height h = 2.00 m to the base, where it meets a rough plank of mass M = 5.00 kg that is resting on the frictionless horizontal ground surface. Due to the friction between the box and the plank, its speed is reduced until, at a certain moment, it begins to move together with the plank as if they were a single object. M Figure B2. Problem diagram B2 c) Calculate the work done by the friction forces present in the problem.
