A person on a sled starts descending from the highest point of a snowy slope with a 30º inclination and 150 m in length. The combined mass of the person and the sled is 90 kg. At the end of the slope, they continue moving on a horizontal track until they stop. The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is $ \mu = 0.18 $ in both cases. 1. Draw the forces acting on the sled in each section. 2. Calculate the mechanical energy dissipated due to friction on the inclined section. 3. With what speed does it reach the end of the slope? 4. What distance does the sled travel on the horizontal plane before stopping?
= 91.3 kg) about to Question 16. The drawing shows Robin Hood (mass dangerous situation. With one hand, he is gripping the rope that holds up a chandelier (mass 192.0 kg). When he cuts the rope where it is tied to the floor, the chandelier will fall, and he will be pulled up toward a balcony above. Ignore the friction between the rope and the beams over which it slides, and find (a) the acceleration with which Robin is pulled upward and (b) the tension in the rope while Robin escapes. Ans: 3.48 m/s2; 1213 N

A 60 kg block slides along the top of a 100 kg block. The lighter block has an acceleration of 3.8 m/s2 when a horizontal force F= 390 N is applied. Assuming there is no friction between the bottom 100 kg block and the horizontal frictionless surface but there is friction between the blocks. Find the acceleration of the 100 kg block during the time the 60 kg block remains in contact.
