Steven carefully places a m = 1.65 kg wooden block on a frictionless ramp so that the block begins to slide down the ramp from rest. The ramp makes an angle of 0 = 56.3° up from the horizontal.

A 13.0kg stone slides down an icy, essentially frictionless, hill that is shown in the figure. At the top of the hill, the stone is moving at 1.75m/s down the hill. While the hill is frictionless, the stone experiences friction along the level, rough ground (beyond the base of the hill) all the way to a wall. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.800 and 0.300 respectively. The stone slides along the ground for 9.15m before making contact with a long spring, which has a spring constant of 25.0N/m. (“Long” in this case means that the spring is sufficiently long to stop the stone before it hits the wall.) Will the stone move again after it has been stopped by the spring?
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. The upper half of the incline is frictionless, while the lower half is rough, with a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.3. (a) How fast is the block moving midway along the incline, before entering the rough section? (b) How fast is the block moving at the bottom of the incline?
Tarzan grabs a vine of length L=8.9 m and attempts to swing across the crocodile infested river. The vine breaks just as Tarzan is at lowest point of his swing, a horizontal distance D=60 m and H= 4.5 m above the riverbank. You barely mix it across, landing on the edge of the riverbank. The tension in the vine when it broke was a 1000 N. Find Tarzan's mass.
A 4.25 kg block is projected at 5.40 m/s up a plane that is inclined at 30.0° with the horizontal. The block slides some distance up the incline, stops turns around and slides back down to the bottom. When it reaches the bottom of the incline again, it is traveling with a speed of 3.80 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.500, how far up the incline did the block slide?
7.43 - A 2.0-kg piece of Figure P7.43 wood slides on a curved surface Wood (Fig. P7.43). The sides of the surface are perfectly smooth, but the rough horizontal bottom is 30 m long and has a kinetic friction coefficient of 0.20 with the wood. The piece of wood starts from rest 4.0 m above the rough bottom. (a) Where will this wood eventually come to rest? (b) For the motion from the initial release until the piece of wood comes to rest, what is the total amount of work done by friction? Rough bottom
I am unsure where to start on this problem how do I do it?
Calculate the force needed to bring a 900 kg car to rest from a speed of 90.0 km/h in a distance of 110 m (a fairly typical distance for a nonpanic stop).N(b) Suppose instead the car hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force exerted on the car and compare it with the force found in part (a), i.e. find the ratio of the force in part(b) to the force in part(a).(force in part (b) / force in part (a))
A mass of 0.21 kg is initially at rest on a hor- izontal surface. A force, given by F⃗ = Fx ˆı, acts on the mass. The horizontal component Fx is plotted below as a function of position along the x-axes. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.044. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 . Calculate the kinetic energy K of the mass as it reaches 5 m. Answer in units of J.

A child stands on a bank beside a pond, grasps the end of a 20.0 m long rope attached to a nearby tree and swings out to drop into the water. When the rope makes an angle of 15.0⁰ with the vertical, the child's speed is 5.00 m/s. a) At what point in the swing does the child's maximum speed occur? b) What is the child's maximum speed? Ignore all frictional effects. c) Assuming the child started from rest, what angle did the rope initially make with respect to the vertical?
In the figure, a block of mass m is moving along the horizontal frictionless surface with a speed of 10 m/s. If the slope is 37° and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is 02 how far (D) does the block travel up the incline?
A 2.0 Kg block situated on a rough inclined plane is connected to spring of negligible mass having a spring constant of 100 N/m. The pulley is frictionless. The block is released from rest when the spring is unstretched. The block moves 20.0 cm down the incline before coming to rest. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and inclined plane.
