1. Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, takes off across level snow on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 200 N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on snow of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 10 s.
A. What is Sam’s top speed?
B. How far has Sam traveled when he finally coasts to a stop?
A 60.0 kg skier with an initial speed of 15 m/s coasts up a 2.50 m high rise as shown in the figure.
a. Find her final speed right at the top, in meters per second, given that the coefficient of friction between her skis and the snow is 0.36.
A spring is used to launch a mass along a horizontal frictionless surface.
Before launch, a force of 30 N is used to hold the mass in place. The force is
released and the spring launches the 1.5 kg mass to the right. The spring
constant is 250 N/m.
a. How far was the spring compressed before launch?
b. What is the speed of the mass after it leaves the spring?
