Chapter 14, Problem 14.106RP
A 50-kg mother and her 26-kg son are sledding down a 20° incline when their 8-kg toboggan hits a small bump and the son falls off the sled (he was not holding onto the toboggan as instructed by his mother). After one second, the mother jumps off the toboggan to see if her son is unharmed. The son leaves the toboggan with zero relative velocity, and the mother has a relative velocity of 1 m/s up the hill when she jumps off the toboggan. Knowing that the toboggan is initially traveling at 5 m/s and that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the toboggan and the ground is 0.35, determine the speed of the toboggan immediately after the mother jumps off.

partner as he stands on the edge of a building. The building is 20.0 m high, and after the collision the pair fall
together of the building with an initial velocity that is horizontal. In the stunt, the pair are to fall into a

During an Olympic 100-m sprint race, Usain Bolt, the world record holder in that race, quickly accelerates to his top speed of 12.4 m/s. Analysis of his technique has shown that each of his feet make
contact with the ground for 0.0800 s, exerting a force of magnitude 2.80 x 10° N during this contact. This allows the 94.0 kg Bolt to leap forward and remain airborne for 0.120 s until the next foot
touches the ground. (Ignore air resistance.)
(a) What are the magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical components of the force (in N) Bolt's feet exert on the ground? (Round your answers to at least three significant figures.)
horizontal

vertical
(b) Assuming that the sprinter accelerates at a constant rate while his feet are in contact with the ground and does not slow down when he is airborne, by what amount does Bolt's horizontal speed
(in m/s) increase with each step? (Round your answer to at least three significant figures.)

- To understand how the conservation of energy and Newton's second law can be combined to solve kinetic problems. As shown, a large globe has a radius R and a frictionless surface. A small block with mass m starts sliding from rest at the top of the globe and slides along the globe’s surface. The block leaves the globe’s surface when it reaches a height hl above the ground. The system’s geometry is shown for an arbitrary height h. (Figure 1) Note that the subscripts used in this problem is the letter l and not the number 1. Consider what happens when the block leaves the globe’s surface. Which of the following statement or statements are correct? The net acceleration of the block is directed straight down. The component of the force of gravity toward the globe’s center is equal to the normal force’s magnitude. The force of gravity is the only force acting on the block.Consider what happens when the block leaves the globe’s surface.

He was asked to determine whether a vehicle built to test the effects of Problem 1 high accelerations on people is safe. The car moving at a speed of 20 m/s runs into a piston that compresses the air in a cylinder and stops the car in 0.30 m. The 70-kg passenger stops in the same distance due to the force of shoulder straps and seat belts on her body. Draw free-body diagram for the passenger when he is slowing down to a stop inside a car. Assume that the force of the shoulder straps and seat belt is horizontal. Do not forget to draw acceleration vector as well. Choosing the passenger as your system and applying energy conservation law, find the work that the force of shoulder straps b. and seat belts did on his body in this process. C.
