Suppose a 175 kg motorcycle is heading toward a hill at a speed of 34 m/s. The two wheels weigh 12 kg each and are each annular rings with an inner radius of 0.280 m and an outer radius of 0.330 m. a) how high can it coast up the hill, if you neglect friction in m? b) how much energy is lost to friction if the motorcycle only gains an altitude of 39m before coming to rest?

Which one is answer ? A or B or C or D
A 70 kg secret agent skis down a hill and grabs a 200 kg bag then flies off a 12 m high cliff. The hill can be considered a 1/4 of a circle with a radius of 20 m. The initial mechanical energy of the agent at the top of the hill is 14,560 J relative to the location of the bag. his initial apparent weight is 2521 .4 N and initial velocity is 22.9 m/s D) how far from the base of the cliff does the agent land? Assume the resistance is negligible. E) Assume that the agent in his bag come to rest upon colliding with the ground at the base of the cliff. What is an impulse that he in the bag experiences? Estimate the resulting contact force on the agent. Discuss the likelihood of his living through the collision

4. Two wheels (A and B) of equal mass and the same Iz roll down a hill without sliding and have the same kinetic energy. Partway down the hill, wheel B stops rolling and continues down the hill sliding (no rotation), but maintains the same kinetic energy as wheel A which continues to roll without sliding. Which wheel reaches the base of the hill first (assuming they travel the same path length)? wheel A (the one that rolls the whole way) wheel B (the one that starts sliding) they reach the hill base at the same time
2. A 1 m long rod of mass m = 0.2 Kg is hinged at one end and connected to a wall. It is held out horizontally, then released. With respect to the reference XY, whose origin is at the hinge (as shown in the figure), calculate: (22 points) The speed of the tip of the rod at the moment it hits the wall? (11 points) The kinetic energy of the rod at the moment it hits the wall? Wall Vtip Y L= 1 m X
