Question 1: A girl and her 40kg dog are out walking one summer day when they come to a road they need to cross. The pavement is hot, so the girl borrows a skateboard for her dog and gives him a push to get him across the road so that his feet won’t burn. If the road is 10 meters wide, using the EQUATION OF WORK AND ENERGY, find the magnitude of the initial velocity required so that the dog will coast across the road and come to rest at 10 meters away on the other side of the road. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels and the pavement is 0.3.

A family is skating. The father (95 kg) skates at 8.2 m/s and collides and sticks to the mother (65kg), who was initially moving at 5.5 m/s and at 45° with respect to the father’s velocity. The pair then collides with their daughter (25 kg), who was stationary, and the three slides off together. What is their final velocity?
PROBLEM 1: A car starting from rest is moving at constant acceleration until it reached final velocity of 19 m/s after traveling a distance of 153.2 m. Calculate the acceleration and the time required.
By itself, the 2180-kg pickup truck executes a 0-102 km/h acceleration run in 11.6 s along a level road. What would be the corresponding time when pulling the 580-kg trailer? ASsume constant acceleration and neglect all retarding forces. 2180 kg 580 kg 8 Answer: t = i

A collision occurred between a 1540 kg automobile (A) struck a stopped 890 kg automobile (B). All of the wheels of B were locked, and it slid 6 m after the impact. The coefficient of kinetic friction between B's tires and road was estimated to be u k = 0.8 and the coefficient of restitution of the impact to be e = 0.2. Determine automobile A's velocity in meters per second, just before the impact? Note: You can assume that there was a single impact. VA A B
