- Suppose a car travels 108 km at a speed of 25.0 m/s, and uses 2.20 gallons of gasoline. Only 30% of the gasoline goes into useful work by the force that keeps the car moving at constant speed despite friction. (The energy content of gasoline is 1.3 ✕ 108 J per gallon.)(a) What is the force exerted to keep the car moving at constant speed? N (b) If the required force is directly proportional to speed, how many gallons will be used to drive 108 km at a speed of 28.0 m/s? gallonsA 98 kg bicyclist traveling 15 m/s coasts up a 5 m high incline.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the rock and the hill surface is 0.28. (a) If the gravitational potential energy U of the rock-Earth system is zero at the bottom of the hill, what is the value of U just before the slide?

(d) What is its speed then?In celebration of a goal, a soccer player, who weighs 71.0 kg, slides on the ground. Before coming to a halt, the player travels at a speed of 3.90 m/s at the commencement of the slide's descent. The player and the ground have a coefficient of friction of 0.700. In order to determine how much energy the player has lost or gained throughout the slide, we must first calculate her change in mechanical energy (in J). When the player slides, how far (in meters) does it travel?
- A 1.50-kg block at rest on a ramp of height h. When the block is released, it slides without friction to the bottom of the ramp, and then continues across a surface that is frictionless except for a rough patch of width 10.0 cm that has a coefficient of kinetic friction µk = 0.60. Using conservation of energy, find h such that the block’s speed after crossing the rough patch is 3.50 m/s.A 68 kg baseball player slides into third base.

(a) the mechanical energy lost (in J) due to friction acting on the player (b) the distance (in m) he slides mCan the work done by Friction be zero? In a case where static friction exists, the object does not move and the change in kinetic energy is also zero? W = Fd = ?KE = 0? What did I do wrong?
- Please use conservation of energy (kinetic and gravitational potential energy) to solve this problem. A 1.5-kg block initially at rest at the top of a 3-m incline with a slope of 30° begins to slide down the incline.
