Chapter 13.1, Problem 13.8P
A 2000-kg automobile starts from rest at point A on a 6° incline and coasts through a distance of 150 m to point B. The brakes are then applied, causing the automobile to come to a stop at point C, which is 20 m from B. Knowing that slipping is impending during the braking period and neglecting air resistance and rolling resistance, determine (a) the speed of the automobile at point B, (b) the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road.

A 2000-kg automobile starts from rest at point A on a 6° incline and coasts through a distance of 50 m to point B. The brakes are then applied, causing the automobile to come to a stop at point C, 20 m from B.
Knowing that slipping is impending during the braking period and neglecting air resistance and rolling resistance, determine the speed of the automobile at point B.
The speed of the automobile at point B is ___ m/s.
Determine the maximum theoretical speed that a 1225 kg automobile starting from rest can reach after
traveling 400 m if air resistance is considered. Assume that the coefficient of static friction between the
tires and the pavement is 0.70, that the automobile has front-wheel drive, that the front wheels support 62
percent of the automobile's weight, and that the aerodynamic drag D has a magnitude D = 0.575v?, where
D and v are expressed in newtons and m/s, respectively.
A 5-kg collar A is at rest on top of, but not attached to, a spring with stiffness k1 = 400 N/m when a constant 150-N force is applied to the cable. Knowing A has a speed of 1 m/s when the upper spring is compressed 75 mm, determine the spring stiffness k2 . Ignore friction and the mass of the pulley.
