Cardo Dalisay is pushing a loaded sled across a level field of ice at the constant speed of 10 ft./sec. When the man in halfway across the ice field, he stops pushing and lets the loaded sled continue on. The combine weight of the sled and its load is 80lb; the air resistance (in Ib) is numerically equal to 3v/4, where v is the velocity of the sled (in feet per second); and the coefficient of fraction of the runners on the ice is 0.04. How far will the sled continue to move after Cardo stop pushing?
A stone is thrown up with a velocity of 54 m/s from the ground. While coming down, it strikes a glass pan, held at half the height through which it has risen and loses half of its velocity in breaking the glass. Determine the time taken to reach the maximum height and the velocity with which it will strike the ground and total time taken to reach the ground Solution 1. The time taken to reach maximum height in seconds is 2.The maximum height reached in m is 3.The distance between glass pan to the maximum height in m is 4.The velocity when the stone hits the glass pan in m/s is 5.The velocity of the stone when it hits the ground in m/s is 6.The total time taken by the stone in seconds is
4) A toy wood block of mass m1= 3.25 kg is pushed by hand to compress a spring with a spring constant k= 550 N/m a distance As = 25cm. The toy block is released by the hand and the spring launches the toy block across a frictionless surface toward a more massive wood block ofimass m2= 5.0 kg. The 3.5 kg wood block is moving with an unkown velocity right before it collides with the more massive wood block which is at rest. After the collision, the 5.0 kg block is moving to the right with a velocity of 3 m/s. The more massive 5.0 kg block encounters a long rough section of surface having a coefficient of kinetic uk=0.22 and is eventually brought to rest. a) Find the velocity of the 3.25 kg block just before the collision. b) Find the velocity of the 3.25 kg block just after the collision c) What is the system's energy just before the collision? d) What is the system's energy just after the collision? e) Is this collision, elastic, completely inelastic, or inelastic? f) What is the…

A car climbs through a slope of 30° in 5 seconds. If it starts at rest and after 10 m its velocity is 80 km/h. What is the power that the car has to develop? What is the force that produces this power and makes it possible for the car to climb and accelerate? Assume the car does not suffer any temperature change and that its mass is m = 450 kg. d = 10 m 0 - 30°
A 105 kg guy runs at 3.25 m/s down the parking lot to catch a cart before it hits his car. The cart seems to gain speed as it rolls in the lot causing the guy to change his velocity to 4.5 m/s over a period of 0.77 seconds. What force did the guy use as he changed his velocity

A block with a weight of 5 kg hanging from the ceiling attached to a spring is raised and then pulled downward. As it passes downward through the spring's unstretched position it has a speed of 10 m/s downward. If the spring has a stiffness of 5 N/m, determine the maximum position below the spring's unstretched position achieved by the block.
