Joe pushes down the length of the handle
of a 14.1 kg lawn spreader. The handle makes
an angle of 47.1° with the horizontal. Joe
wishes to accelerate the spreader from rest to
1.39 m/s in 1.7 s.
What force must Joe apply to the handle?
Answer in units of N.
A car has a mass of 1500 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 7000 N. If the car is moving at 20 m/s, what is the shortest distance in which the car can stop safely?

He gets a push from the bottom of the hill, so his initial velocity is 2 m/s. How far up the hill will he go before stopping? (there’s no friction) b. He goes back down the hill and then his friend Jill tries to pull him on the tube across a small patch of grass (μk=0.30).
