An automobile weighing 4000 lb is driven down a 5° incline at a speed of 60 mih when the brakes are applied, causing a constant total braking force (applied by the road on the tires) of 1500 Ib. Determine the time required for the automobile to come to a stop.
Using a simple pulley/rope system, a crewman on an Arctic
expedition is trying to lower a 6.56 kg crate to the bottom
of a steep ravine of 24.7 meters. The 60.9 kg crewman is
carefully lowering the crate at a constant speed of 1.50
m/s. Unfortunately, when the crate reaches a point of 13.7
meters above the ground, the crewman slips and the crate
immediately accelerates toward the ground dragging the
crewman across the ice and toward the edge of the cliff.
Assuming no friction, at what speed does the crate hit the
ground? Also, assume that the rope is long enough to hit
the ground.
At what speed does the crewman hit the bottom of the
ravine? Assume no air friction.
Need some guidance please...TIA

A tractor-trailer rig with a 2000-kg tractor, a 4500-kg trailer, and a 3600-kg trailer is traveling on a level road at v = 90 km/h. The brakes on the rear trailer fail and the antiskid system of the tractor and front trailer provide the largest possible force which will not cause the wheels to slide. The coefficient of static friction is 0.75. Trailer Trailer Rig 00 00 00 Determine the shortest time for the rig to come to a stop. (You must provide an answer before moving to the next part.)
