Multiple-Concept Example 5 reviews many of the concepts that play a role in this problem. An extreme skier, starting from rest, coasts
down a mountain that makes an angle of 22.7° with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between her skis and the snow is
0.156. She coasts for a distance of 17.1 m before coming to the edge of a cliff. Without slowing down, she skis off the cliff and lands
downhill at a point whose vertical distance is 4.65 m below the edge. How fast is she going just before she lands?

The 2090 kg cable car shown in the figure descends a 200-m-high hill. In addition to its brakes, the cable car controls its speed by pulling an 1860 kgcounterweight up the other side of the hill. The rolling friction of both the cable car and the counterweight are negligible. How much braking force does the cable car need to descend at constant speed? One day the brakes fail just as the cable car leaves the top on its downward journey. What is the runaway car's speed at the bottom of the hill?

- A small block sits at one end of a flat board that is 4.00 m long. The coefficients of friction between the block and the board are μs= 0.450 and μ = 0.400. The end of the board where the block sits is slowly raised until the angle the board makes with the horizontal is α0, and then the block starts to slide down the board. If the angle is kept equal to α0 as the block slides, what is the speed of the block when it reaches the bottom of the board?

The tires were deadlocked and not able to roll. The airplane began to skid once it touched down and left behind a 728 m long skid mark on the runway before it came to a stop. Even though everyone on the airplane was safe, the pilot was accused of failing to land the airplane within the allowable speed limit of 80.0 m/s and his pilot license was suspended. Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and runway was 0.496. (i) Determine the work done by friction on the tires.(ii) Use the Work-Energy Theorem to evaluate if the suspension of the pilot’s license should be revoked. #This is an exercise question, please help.
