- 1. Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, takes off across level snow on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 200 N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on snow of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 10 s. A. What is Sam’s top speed? B. How far has Sam traveled when he finally coasts to a stop?arrow_forward6. Your friend (mass 65.0 kg) is standing on the ice in the middle of a frozen pond. There is very little friction between her feet and the ice, so she is unable to walk. Fortunately, a light rope is tied around her waist and you stand on the bank holding the other end. You pull the rope for 3.00 s and accelerate your friend from rest to a speed of 6.00 m/s while you remain at rest. What is the average power supplied by the force you applied?arrow_forwardYou just turned 16 and thanks to some long hours at your job and some amazing parents you were able to purchase a tesla. This 3000 kg car can go from 0 to 27m/s (about 60 miles per hour) in 2.5 seconds. You peel away from a stoplight and do just that. a. How far from the light are you when you hit 27 m/s? m Since you live in the great city of Chicago and it is December and you encounter an icy patch. Your car experiences NO friction on the ice patch but you also cannot apply any force. Another small (m-2300 kg) van coming towards you at 25m/s in the other direction loses control and comes straight for you. They hit you and the two vehicles get tangled together and continue to slide across the ice. b. How fast are the cars going after the collision? m/s C. After you slide off the ice you hit the shoulder of the road with a coefficient of friction of 0.4 compared to the road. What is your acceleration as they start to slide to a stop? m/s/s d. How much momentum do you have after you have…arrow_forward

Initially, the heavier mass is positioned a distance h above the floor. The masses are released from rest. At what speed are the masses moving when the heavier mass strikes the floor? Here m₁ = 4kg, m₂ = 6kg, and h = 3m. The cord is long enough so that the lighter mass does not reach the pulley. Devices like this are used in the construction of elevators.
