a speed of 5.5 m/sec, how far does is slide before coming to rest? Answer: d = 6.1 m

to 8.00 m/sec in a distance of 25.0 m, if they encounter a wind that exerts an average force of
30.0 N against them?
Hint: Wnet = Wrunner - Wwind. Answer: Frunner: = 102.0 N

of a mile) and encounters an average frictional force of 1200 N. What is the work done by the

It doesn’t take much force to keep the boat moving; the drag force is quite small. But it takes some work to get the 55,000 kg boat up to speed! The horses can pull with a steady force and put a 1400 N tension in the rope that connects to the boat. The rope is straight and level. The boat starts from rest, and the horses pull steadily as they begin their walk down the towpath.
