A fire helicopter carries a 620-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m-long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant speed of 40.0 m/s, the cable makes an angle of 40.0° with respect to the vertical. Determine the force exerted by air resistance on the bucket.
A waitress shoves a ketchup bottle with mass 0.45 kg to her right along a smooth, level lunch counter. The bottle leaves her hand moving at 2.8 m/s, then slows down as it slides because of a constant horizontal friction force exerted on it by the countertop. It slides for 1.0 m before coming to rest. What is the magnitude of the friction force acting on the bottle?
A steel cable lying flat on the floor drags a 30 kg block across a horizontal, frictionless floor. A 200 N force applied to the cable causes the block to reach a speed of 6 m/s in a distance of 3 m. Determine the mass of the cable.
