Chapter 5, Problem 5.69P
Review. A magician pulls a tablecloth from under a 200-g mug located 30.0 cm from the edge of the cloth. The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug, and the cloth is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 30 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.

A car has a mass of 1750 kg. If the driver applies the brakes while on a gravel road, the maximum friction force that the tires can provide without skidding is about 6500 N. If the car is moving at 22 m/s, what is the shortest distance in which the car can stop safely?
In an amusement park water slide, people slide down an essentially frictionless tube. The top of the slide is 3.0 m above the bottom where they exit the slide, moving horizontally, 1.2 m above a swimming pool. What horizontal distance do they travel from the exit point before hitting the water? Does the mass of the person make any difference?
