A worker pushes a 35.0-kg package on a horizontal roller-belt conveyor until it reaches a certain speed. The package then coasts on the horizontal conveyor, all the while slowing down, until it comes to a complete stop after moving 1.20 m. While the package is coasting on the conveyor, the opposing friction force averages 6.00 N. Use the WET to find the speed of the package after the worker pushes it and just as it begins to coast. 0.625 m/s 0.759 m/s 0.600 m/s 0.510 m/s 0.802 m/s 0.641 m/s

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 78 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.30. use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (why does the car's mass not matter?)
Walking in Waikiki, a tourist steps out onto Kuhio Dr while texting. Unbeknownst to the sunburned visitor, the street has been closed for the filming of a car chase scene for Hawaii 5-0. Slamming on the breaks, the stunt driver is thrown against his seatbelt, stopping in 90m. If the driver and the car weigh a total of 544kg and were traveling at 18 m/s, what force does the 90kg driver feel? Sketch: Equations: Work:

The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.285 m while bringing a 950 kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.7 m/s. How fast must a 2.5-g ping-pong ball move in order to have the same kinetic energy as a 145 g baseball moving at 35.0 m/s? m/s
The coefficient of friction between the tires of Shirley's 1985 Ford Coupe and the dry pavement is 0.74. She doesn't drive the car often because it's becoming an antique, but she took it out for a gentle drive yesterday. While driving, she has to suddenly and forcefully brake when the light turned red. She probably shouldn't have been texting and driving! Her car (mass = 1.31x10³ kg) skids to a stop with an acceleration of m/s². Use the approximation g = 10 m/s².
You went on a drive late at night after having a fun party with the member of your company when you accidentally hit another car. The investigator observes a skid marks 25m long left by your 1500kg car. Your car skidded to stop on a concrete highway having a coefficient of kinetic friction with the tires of 0.80. Estimate your car's speed at the beginning of the skid?
A person steps horizontally off the roof of a single-story house that is 3.1 m high. When his feet hit theground below, he bends his knees such that his torso decelerates over a distance of 0.65 m before coming to astop. If the mass of his torso is 50 kg, what is the average net force exerted on his torso over this distance?
