A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra down a frictionless chute. It starts at a height of 1.63 m above the bottom of the chute with an initial speed of 1.41 m/s . The toy animal emerges horizontally from the bottom of the chute and continues sliding along a horizontal surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.273 . How far from the bottom of the chute does the toy zebra come to rest? Assume ?=9.81 m/s2 .
A commercial airplane is coming in for a landing. Just before it hits the runway it is moving at 76 m/s. The plane has a mass of 20,000 kg. The runway is 1.6km long and, obviously, the airplane needs to be stopped before it reaches the end of the runway. How large is the braking force the airplane needs to stop safely before the end of the runway?
Sometimes, steep roads going down have a small safety road by the side that goes up, which vehicules can use in an emergency, to slow down. A 3362.6 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 14 degrees that the driver can use to stop the truck. The truck hits the ramp moving at 20.58 m/s and then travels 35.6 meters up the ramp before it comes to a stop. What work is done by the gravel to stop the truck?

Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the drive force is shut off, the snowmobile coasts to a halt. The snowmobile and its rider have a mass of 143 kg. Under the influence of a drive force of 220 N, it is moving at a constant velocity whose magnitude is 4.38 m/s. The drive force is then shut off. Find (a) the distance in which the snowmobile coasts to a halt and (b) the time required to do so. (a) s= (b) t = i i + +
A horizontal force of 80.0 N is applied to a 5.00 kg block as the block slides a distance of 0.800 m along a horizontal floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is 0.500. If the block is initially at rest, how fast is it moving at the end of the displacement?
The high-speed winds around a tornado can drive projectiles into trees, building walls, and even metal traffic signs. In a laboratory simulation, a standard wood toothpick was shot by pneumatic gun into an oak branch. The toothpick mass was 0.15 g, its speed before entering the branch was 212 m/s, and its penetration depth was 17 mm. If its speed was decreased at a uniform rate, what was the magnitude of the force of the branch on the toothpick? Number Units
An ice hockey puck is sliding over a frictionless horizontal surface with a constant velocity of vo = 10.2 m/s. Find the velocity of the puck after it passes a rough area of length L 6 m and with the kinetic friction coefficient u = 0.33 as shown below. Hint: the mass of the puck is not needed, you can either calculate everything per unit of mass or, if it helps, take m 160 grams. %3D %3D %3D %3D m Vo L The steps to follow: (1) find the initial KE of the puck; (2) find the work done by the friction force (should be negative); (3) find the final kinetic energy as KE; = KE; + W, meaning that some of the initial kinetic energy is lost due to the work done by friction; (4) from the final KE find the final speed. The final speed of the puck, Vf =7.28 X Units m/s %3D If the initial speed of the puck is not high enough the puck will get stuck in the rough area.
