A 10 kg object is released at the top of a building 100 m high. If the force of air resistance is on the object is 40 N. Its speed just before strikes the ground is
A 55 m/s
B 30 m/s
C 50 m/s
D 34. 64 m/s
A car traveling at 22 m/s runs out of gas while traveling up a 200 slope.
How far up the hill will it coast before starting to roll back down? Assume that car rolls without friction.
A semi-trailer is coasting downhill along a mountain highway when its brakes fail. The driver pulls onto a runaway truck ramp that is inclined at an angle of 10.0° above the horizontal. The semi-trailer coasts to a stop after traveling 170 m along the ramp. What was the truck's initial speed? Neglect air resistance and friction.

- A car’s bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/ h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of the car. The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.200 m while bringing a 900-kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.1 m/s.arrow_forwardYou are driving your car on a straight road with a coefficient of friction between the tires and the road of 0.55. A large piece of debris falls in front of your view and you immediate slam on the brakes, leaving a skid mark of 30.5 m (100-feet) long before coming to a stop. A policeman sees your car stopped on the road, looks at the skid mark, and gives you a ticket for traveling over the 13.4 m/s (30 mph) speed limit. Should you fight the speeding ticket in court?arrow_forwardA car's bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of the car.

Using a lat machine (Fig. P5.48), you notice that the wire connected to the bar is run around three different pulleys and is connected to a vertical stack of weights on the other end. The weights move up and down as you pull down on the bar. Suppose you set the machine so that the weight to be lifted is 120.0 lb. When you pull down on the bar, exerting a constant force, the acceleration experienced by the weights is 0.250 m/s2. What tension must exist in the wire connecting the bar and weights under these conditions? Assume the pulleys are massless and frictionless. FIGURE P5.48arrow_forwardA 50kg wooden crate is being pushed up a ramp with a force of 100N (parallel to the ramp) and is initially moving up the ramp at 5.0m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.3 and the ramp slopes up at an angle of 20deg from level ground. Will the crate speed up, slow down, or move at a steady pace? Be sure your answer is well supported.arrow_forward
