A 92.4 kg person is standing inside an elevator. The person is riding the elevator from the 12th floor down to the 3rd floor (a distance of 30.8 m). As the elevator passes the 4th floor it is slows at a rate of 0.620 m/s^2. What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the person as the elevator passes the 4th floor?

For t 0, an object of mass m experiences no force and moves in the positive x direction with a constant speed vi. Beginning at t = 0, when the object passes position x = 0, it experiences a net resistive force proportional to the square of its speed: Fnet=mkv2i, where k is a constant. The speed of the object after t = 0 is given by v = vi/(1 + kvit). (a) Find the position x of the object as a function of time. (b) Find the objects velocity as a function of position.
A 67.3 kg person is standing inside an elevator. The elevator is traveling from the 1st floor to the 8th floor. As the elevator passes the 7th floor it is traveling at a speed of 3.02 m/s and is decelerating at a rate of 1.39 m/s^2. At that moment, what is the net force acting on the person?

A 129 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the horizontal. Someone gives the crate a quick shove to get it moving, after which it slides down the ramp without any further assistance. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is ls = 0.23. What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s?) of the crate?

In the figure, a tin of anti-oxidants (m1 = 4.7 kg) on a frictionless inclined surface is connected to a tin of corned beef (m2 = 2.4 kg). The pulley is massless and frictionless. An upward force of magnitude F = 6.4 N acts on the corned beef tin, which has a downward acceleration of 4.7 m/s2. What are (a) the tension in the connecting cord and (b) angle β?
A man wants to move a heavy wooden crate (82 kg) across a wooden floor. However, since he is taller than the crate, he must pull it using a rope that makes an angle of 42 degrees with the horizontal. He exerts a force of 312 N as he pulls. What is the Normal Force exerted by the floor on the crate? What is the size of the Friction Force felt by the crate, if the crate moves at a constant speed in a straight line? Imagine that instead the floor is more slick, so that the crate feels a friction force half of what you calculated above. What is the crate’s acceleration?
