- A 5.0 kg mortar shell is fired at an angle of 35 degrees with respect to the horizontal and has an initial speed of 120 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, what is the potential energy of the shell with respect to the ground at the top of its trajectory?When an 85.4-kg adult uses a spiral staircase to climb to the second floor of his house, his gravitational potential energy increases by 2.03 x 103 J. By how much does the potential energy of a 15.6-kg child increase when the child climbs a normal staircase to the second floor?consider a 4.50 kg box sliding down a ramp. The boox starts from rest at a maximum height of 6.50 meters with gravitational potential energy of 287 J. As the box slides down the ramp, it gains kinetic enegry. Neglecting the effects of friction and air resistance, what is the gravtitational potential energy of the box when the kinetic energy is 172 J?
- A 1.6 kg book is lying on a 0.79 m -high table. You pick it up and place it on a bookshelf 2.0 m above the floor.

- A basketball player makes a jump shot. The 0.600-kg ball is released at a height of 2.02 m above the floor with a speed of 7.47 m/s. The ball goes through the net 3.10 m above the floor at a speed of 3.90 m/s. What is the work done on the ball by air resistance, a nonconservative force?A mouse of mass 200 g falls 100 m down a vertical mine shaft and lands at the bottom with a speed of 8.0 m/s. During its fall, how much work is done on the mouse by air resistance?The 50 kg block slides down the 2m high ramp. At some point, the block is .5 meters above the ground. What is its kinetic energy and potential energy of the block at that point? Keep in mind, the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy has to be a constant value at any point on the ramp. We are ignoring any frictional effects.
- If a 1000 kg car is exiting a highway through an above-the-ground ramp of 5.0 m radius at 12 m/s, what is the potential energy?A 76.0-kg hiker is descending a mountain that has a peak altitude of 2350 m above sea level. The hiker has a device that measures her potential energy, and when she is at the peak of the mountain she decides to "zero" it (that is, she set's the zero point of potential energy to be the mountaintop). What does her potential energy device read sometime later on her descent when she is 1960 m above sea level?A 2,000-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 3.00 m before coming into contact with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam 14.6 cm farther into the ground as it comes to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest.
