- Multiple Choice
An 800-kg car is traveling along a horizontal road directly towards a cliff. The driver notices and brakes, resulting in a 5,000-N net force slowing the car down. If the car's initial speed was 20 m/s and the car stops just before going over the cliff, how far away was the car from the cliff when the driver hit the brakes?

- Multiple ChoiceTabletop shuffleboard is a popular pub game where players slide pucks across a tabletop trying to get them as close to the end of the table as possible, without falling off. Shuffleboard tables are typically covered in shuffleboard wax, which gives a very low coefficient of kinetic friction between the table and puck. Suppose that one particular table is 6.0 long m and has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.080. What speed should a player give to a puck on one end of the table so the puck just makes it to the far end?590views1comments

(II) A child on a sled reaches the bottom of a hill with a velocity of 10.0 m/s and travels 25.0 m along a horizontal straightaway to a stop. If the child and sled together have a mass of 60.0 kg, what is the average retarding force on the sled on the horizontal straightaway?
344views - Textbook QuestionWhen jumping straight up from a crouched position, an average person can reach a maximum height of about 60 cm. During the jump, the person's body from the knees up typically rises a distance of around 50 cm. To keep the calculations simple and yet get a reasonable result, assume that the entire body rises this much during the jump. (a) With what initial speed does the person leave the ground to reach a height of 60 cm?318views
