Chapter 15.7, Problem 102P
The 800-lb roller-coaster car starts from rest on the track having the shape of a cylindrical helix. If the helix descends 8 ft for every one revolution, determine the time required for the car to attain a speed of 60 ft/s. Neglect friction and the size of the car.

The 50-kg crate is pulled by the constant force P. If the crate P starts from rest and achieves a speed of 10 m/s in 5 s, determine the magnitude of P. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ground is µk = 0.2.
The 150-lb car of an amusement partk ride is connected to a rotating telescopic boom. When r = 15 ft, the car is moving on a horizontal circular path with a speed of 30 ft/s. If the boom is shortened at a rate of 3 ft/s, determine the speed of the car when r = 10 ft. Also, find the work done by the axial for F along the boom. Neglect the size of the car and the mass of the boom.
During a brake test, the rear-engine car is
stopped from an initial speed of 98 km/h in a
distance of s = 54 m. If it is known that all
four wheels contribute equally to the braking
force, determine the braking force F at each
wheel in N. Assume a constant deceleration
for the 1,446-kg car. Use g = 9.81 m/s?
