Starlord has a mass of 89.3 kg and Groot is pulling the bag with a force of 384. N at an angle of 35.0˚ as is shown in the figure below. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction if they are moving at a constant speed of 2.31 m/s?
Early on in the video game Shadow of the Tomb Raider Lara Croft uses a winch to pull a heavy crate of stone up a 23.6° incline. If Lara causes the 66.0 kg crate to accelerate at 2.79 m/s2 up the ramp, what is the tension in the rope pulling the block? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ground is 0.503.
A player kicks a football at the start of the game. After a 4 second flight, the ball touches the ground 50 m from the kicking tee. Assume air resistance is negligible and the take-off and landing height are the same (i.e., time to peak = time to fall = ½ total flight time). (Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the step and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise.)

The battleship is a distance d1 = 2,150 m to the east of the peak of a mountain on an island, as shown in the figure below. The destroyer is attempting to evade cannon shells fired from the battleship by hiding on the west side of the island. The initial speed of the shells that the battleship fires is vi = 245 m/s. The peak of the mountain is h = 1,840 m above sea level, and the western shore of the island is a horizontal distance d2 = 250 m from the peak. What are the distances (in m), as measured from the western shore of the island, at which the destroyer will be safe from fire from the battleship? (Note the figure is not to scale. You may assume that the height and width of the destroyer are small compared to d1 and h.)arrow_forwardNo chatgpt plsarrow_forward
