A ski starts from rest and slides down a 22-degree incline 75 m long. a) If the coefficient of friction is 0.090, what is the ski's speed at the base of the incline? b) If the snow is level at the foot of the incline and has the same coefficient of friction, how far will the ski travel along the level?

Review. The mass of a car is 1 500 kg. The shape of the cars body is such that its aerodynamic drag coefficient is D = 0.330 and its frontal area is 2.50 m2. Assuming the drag force is proportional to 2 and ignoring other sources of friction, calculate the power required to maintain a speed of 100 km/h as the car climbs a long hill sloping at 3.20.
A 5.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and surface is K=0.50 . A horizontal force pulls the box at constant velocity for 10 cm. Find the work done by (a) the applied horizontal force, (b) the frictional force, and (c) the net force.
A frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 35.0. A sled starts at the bottom with an initial speed of 5.00 m/s up the incline. When it reaches the point at which it momentarily stops, a second sled is released from the top of this incline with an initial speed vi. Both sleds reach the bottom of the incline at the same moment. (a) Determine the distance that the first sled traveled up the incline. (b) Determine the initial speed of the second sled.

A 3kg block slides along a floor with coefficient of kinetic friction μk=0.3, initially moving at 7.0m/s. It travels for 2.0 meters, then encounters a ramp sloped upward at 40 degrees. The ramp also has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk=0.3. How fast is the block moving when it reaches the bottom of the ramp? How far up the ramp does the block slide, before momentarily coming to rest? a.) For each part of the problem, identify all the forces acting on the block, and draw a free body diagram. b.) Instead of using a Newton’s 2nd Law equation, write out the Work Energy Theorem for each part of the problem (that is the ΔK = W1 + W2 + … equation.) For both parts of the problem, find thework done by each force on the block and place them on the right-hand side of the equation. (In the ramp part, the magnitude of displacement is unknown, so just leave it as a variable.) c.) Solve for the final velocity in the first part of the problem, then solve for the displacement in the second part of…
