A young girl is riding a bicycle that has a total mass (including the kid) of 21.2 kg. The girl is moving at 5.99 m/s on a flat road when suddenly she slams on the brakes and skids to a stop in 8.22 meters.
What was the magnitutde of the average force due to friction acting on the bicycle? Remeber, the magnitude of a force is always positive.
Assume a constant friction force measured in Newtons and 3 significant digits in your answer.
A 100 N net force acts right on a 20 kg object. Given the initial velocity of the object is 10 m/s left, find the velocity after the net force has acted for a time of 5 seconds.
A bullet shot from a rifle has mass of 10.0 g and travels to the right at 350 m/s. It strikes a target, a large bag of sand, penetrating it a distance of 34.0 cm. Find the magnitude and direction of the retarding force that slows and stops the bullet.
