A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra down a frictionless chute. It starts at a height of 1.11 m1.11 m above the bottom of the chute with an initial speed of 1.53 m/s1.53 m/s. The toy animal emerges horizontally from the bottom of the chute and continues sliding along a horizontal surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.2850.285. How far from the bottom of the chute does the toy zebra come to rest? Assume ?=9.81 m/s2g=9.81 m/s2.
A 200-g hockey puck is launched up a ramp that is inclined at a 30° angle above the horizontal. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the puck and the ramp are µs = 0.40 and µk = 0.30, respectively, and the puck's initial velocity at the base is 3.8 m/s parallel to the sloping surface of the ramp. What speed does the puck have when it slides back down to its starting point?
After collecting so much Halloween candy, you want to find a secret place to eat it all without being bothered. You see a small hiding place on top of a neighbors shed. Luckily, the neighbor has a ramp that leads up to the roof of the shed. You pull your bag of candy with a mass of 6.2 kg up the frictionless ramp which is at an angle of 29 degrees above the horizontal. The bag has an acceleration of 1.81 m/s2 parallel to, and UP the ramp while you are pulling -What is the Normal Force exerted on bag of candy by the ramp? - What force do you need to pull with in order to give the bag an acceleration of 1.81 m/s2?
A 25 N block starts from rest and slide 9 m down a roof with a slope of 2 horizontal to 1 vertical and a coefficient of friction of 0.10. If the vertical distance from the edge of the roof to the ground is 12 m, what is the distance from the wall that the ball will strike the ground?
David throws a 50 kg cart down a ramp with an initial speed of vi = 6 m/s. The ramp is at an angle of 20◦, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cart and the ramp is µk = 0.25. Additionally, the coefficient of static friction is µs = 0.55. How much time does it take to reach Ryan who is 10 m away? Assume that the cart slides and doesn’t roll.
You are driving through the Ouachita Mountains at 12m/s. You see a maple-leaf oak (Quercus acerifolia) crossing the road and hit the brakes, 20m away. The coefficient of kinetic friction between your tires and the road is μ_k = 0.7. Will you strike this endangered broadleaf? Justify your answer with a calculation.Your final answer should be the distance you will travel before coming to a stop.
looking at a ski slope, the length of the slope is 10.00x10^2m and the top of the slope is at an angle of 8.00 degrees relative to the horizontal. Once the slope has ended the skier continues along a level horizontal before stopping. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.090 on both the slope and the straight horizontal section. What is the distance that the man travels on this horizontal section, assuming that the man started from the rest at the top of the slope.
On a planet where g = 10.0 m/s^2 and air resistance is negligible, a sled is at rest on a rough inclined hill rising at 30° as shown in the figure. The object is allowed to move and it stops on a rough horizontal surface, at a distance of 4.0 m from the bottom of the hill. The coefficient of kinetic friction on the hill is 0.40. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the horizontal surface and the sled?
A skateboarder with mass m, = 44 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is h, = 3.9 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is v= 6.7 m/s. Part (b) The ramp makes an angle e with the ground, where 0 = 30°.

A woman at an airport is rolling her suitcase (mass = 20 kg) at an initial velocity of 1 m/s by pulling on a strap at an angle of 30° above the horizontal with a force of 33 N. The woman starts to speed up when she realizes that she is late for her flight. She pulls the suitcase over a distance of 50 m as she walks to her gate. What is the speed of the suitcase when she reaches her gate? (You can neglect friction in this problem. Give your answer in m/s.)
