After skiding down a snow-covered hill on an inner tube, Ashley is coasting across a level snowfield at a constant velocity of +2.0 m/s. Miranda runs after her at a velocity of +4.2 m/s and hops on the inner tube. How fast do the two of them slide across the snow together on the inner tube? Ashley's mass is 69 kg, and Miranda's is 70 kg. Ignore the mass of the inner tube and any friction between the inner tube and the snow. Vo2 Vo1

Kaya, a crew member on an interplanetary space ship, is on a spacewalk. She realizes that her ship is moving away from her at 0.5 m/s. She and her spacesuit have a total mass of 95 kg. Her space suit includes a 15 kg backpack, which is included in the 95 kg total mass.a). What is the minimum velocity she will have to throw the backpack so that she can gain enough velocity to eventually catch up with the ship? b). Kaya applies an average force of 400 N to the backpack for 0.05 seconds. Will Kaya make it back to the ship? If so, determine how much time it will take for her to reach the ship. If not, determine how much more force she would need to apply to make it back.
A 57.0-g tennis ball is traveling straight at a player at 19.0 m/s. The player volleys the ball straight back at 22.0 m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the racket for 0.060 0 s, what average force acts on the ball? 18.05 N 20.9 N 38.95 N 2.85 N O 57 N
A soccer goalkeeper accelerates a ball from rest at a speed of 15 m / s for the time that his foot is in contact with the ball (approximately 0.19 s). If the ball has a mass of 0.44 kg, what average force does the goalkeeper exert on the ball?
Albert and his friend Isaac are standing in the middle of a sheet of ice in the student parking lot when they decide to give each other a push. If Albert has a mass of 73.6 kg and moves to the right at 1.30 m/s after the push, how fast will Isaac move if his mass is 51.8 kg? m/s
Three point masses are placed at the corners of a triangle as shown in the figure below. 90 g 2 cm 3 cm 130 g 200 g Find the center of mass of the three-mass system (in cm). (Assume that the +x-axis is to the right and the +y-axis is up along the page. Take the origin to be at the position of the 200 g mass.) XCM = cm Усм cm
A student designs a water powered rocket. The rocket expels 2000 mL (2.0 kg) of water in 3.0 seconds at a speed of 50 m/s. The empty bottle has a mass of 200 g. What is the thrust the rocket experiences? How much fuel (in kg) does the rocket need to lose to lift off
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 40.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 28.2 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.033 second, what is the magnitude of force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
On the set of a new Hollywood movie, a 74.1-kg stunt actor (Max Payne) is tossed straight out of a helicopter hovering (stationary) at a height of 43.4 meters. The stunt actor is thrown from the helicopter at a speed of 4.17 m/s, eventually landing in the water below. Determine the stunt actor's impact speed and assume negligible air resistance. You can use the approximation that g = 10 m/s2.
A billiard ball strikes and rebounds from the cushion of a pool table perpendicularly. The mass of the ball is 0.38 kg. The ball approaches the cushion with a velocity of +2.20 m/s and rebounds with a velocity of -1.90 m/s. The ball remains in contact with the cushion for a time of 3.00 x 103 s. What is the average net force (magnitude and direction) exerted on the ball by the cushion? F = i -490
A very hard rubber ball (m = 0.6 kg) is falling vertically at 5 m/s just before it bounces on the floor. The ball rebounds back at essentially the same speed. If the collision with the floor lasts 0.05 s, what is the average force exerted by the floor on the ball? __________________ N
Suppose you are navigating a spacecraft far from other objects. The mass of the spacecraft is 3.2 × 104 kg (about 32 tons). The rocket engines are shut off, and you're coasting along with a constant velocity of km/s. As you pass the location km you briefly fire side thruster rockets, so that your spacecraft experiences a net force of N for 23.0 s. The ejected gases have a mass that is small compared to the mass of the spacecraft. You then continue coasting with the rocket engines turned off. Where are you an hour later? (Think about what approximations or simplifying assumptions you made in your analysis. Also think about the choice of system: what are the surroundings that exert external forces on your system?) 7₁ = m
