A 45.0 - kg girl is standing on a 150. - kg plank. The plank, originallyat rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat, frictionlesssurface. The girl begins to walk along the plank at aconstant velocity of 1.50 m/s to the right relative to the plank.(a) What is her velocity relative to the surface of the ice? (b)What is the velocity of the plank relative to the surface of the ice?

A cat (mass of 3.63 kg) is on a sled (mass of 22.7 kg) which rests on an icy surface... so no friction. In front of this sled, there is another identical sled. The cat jumps from the first sled to the second AND immediately back to the first. Both jumps are made at a relative speed of 3.7 m/sec between the cat and the sled it is on. Calculate the final speeds of the two sleds!

A 0.5126-kg hammer is moving horizontally at 6.802 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail 2.861 cm into a board. A small cartoon might be helpful.

At Lee A A 000 B ell time to 0 s, the positions of blocks A and B are %3D 1.2 m, respectively, at which point a mechanism releases the spring, and the blocks begin to XA.i = 1.0 m and xB.i = XB.r oscillate as they slide.

A young girl is riding a bicycle that has a total mass (including the kid) of 21.2 kg. The girl is moving at 5.99 m/s on a flat road when suddenly she slams on the brakes and skids to a stop in 8.22 meters. What was the magnitutde of the average force due to friction acting on the bicycle? Remeber, the magnitude of a force is always positive. Assume a constant friction force measured in Newtons and 3 significant digits in your answer.
