At a circus, a donkey pulls on a sled carrying a small clown with a force given by . A horse pulls on the same sled, aiding the hapless donkey, with a force of The mass of the sled is 575 kg. Using and from for the answer to each problem, find (a) the net force on the sled when the two animals act together, (b) the acceleration of the sled, and (c) the velocity after 6.50 s.
A woman was transporting an open box of cupcakes to a school party. The car in front of her stopped suddenly; she applied her brakes immediately. She was wearing her seat belt and suffered no physical harm (just a great deal of embarrassment), but the cupcakes flew into the dashboard and became “smushcakes.” Explain what happened.
A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.50m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed, the forces resisting motion, including friction and air resistance, total 400.0 N. (Air resistance is analogous to air fiction. It always opposes the motion of an object.) What is the magnitude of the force that motorcycle exerts backward on the ground to produce its acceleration if the mass of the motorcycle with rider is 245 kg?
A care package is dropped out of a cargo plane and lands in the forest. If we assume the care package speed on impact is 54 m/s (123 mph), then what is its acceleration? Assume the trees and snow stops it over a distance of 3.0 m.

6. A box falls off the tailgate of a truck and slides a distance of 62.5 m before coming to a halt. If friction slows the box at the rate of 5 m/s2: a) What was the speed of the truck when the box fell? Sm/s b) How long does it take the box to stop?
On a separate occasion, Michael threatened to jump from the roof of hisoffice building as a demonstration of seasonal depression. If it takes 1.2seconds for his body to plummet to the ground,a. How fast will he be going when he reaches the ground?b. How far will he have fallen in meters?c. In feet?d. If Michael weighs 185 lbs, what would his force of collision with theground be, in Newtons, if his sudden deceleration upon impact takes0.1 seconds? ( 1 lb = 4.45 N, which means on Earth, a weight of 2.2lbs corresponds to a mass of 1 kg)
