A lump of clay of mass 0.28 kg is dropped from a height of 10.8 m. The clay comes to a full stop 0.075 s after the moment it first touched the ground. What is the magnitude in newtons of the average force of impact that the clay experienced? Express your answer in two decimal places, with units of Newtons.
A semi is traveling down the highway at a velocity of v = 39.5 m/s. The driver observes a wreck ahead, locks his brakes, and begins to slide. The truck has mass m and a coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road of μk = 0.25.
Write an expression for the sum of the forces in the x-direction for the truck while braking.
Using the results from that input an expression for the trucks acceleration, ax, while braking.
What is the magnitude of the acceleration in m/s^2, and how far does the truck travel, d in meters, before stopping?
Do show full solution. Thank you.

- This problem pertains to the scenario depicted in the diagram below, where the masses of the blocks are mi = 9.50 kg and m2 = 7.50 kg , and the angle of the ramp is 0 = 27.5°. There is no friction between block 2 and the ramp, but there is friction between block 1 and the flat surface it rests on. When the system is set in motion, both blocks move to the right at a constant speed. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between block 1 and the flat surface (uk)? Show all steps, including drawing free body diagrams and applying Newton's 2nd law to each block.

Friction between the sled and the snow exerts an average force of magnitude 38 N on the sled. How far (in m) does the sled travel before stopping? (Note: First, find the acceleration of the boy using Unit Two material, then use this to compute the distance using Unit One material.)arrow_forwardWhen installing a Red Carpet for the Oscars, workers found that if they push the carpet roll (image included) in the direction to unroll, it will keep unrolling by itself. However, if they push it to roll it up, it will move some distance and then stop. Why is this happening if the surface is flat and the friction is negligible? Calculate the distance the roll will move if it is initially given a push of velocity v0 =1 m/s to roll it up. The carpet is 1 in thick, 60 m long and half-rolled up prior to being pushed. (Hint: use energy conservation.)arrow_forward
