- As rock climbers ascend El Capitan over the course of 2 or 3 days, they have to bring all their food, water and camping equipment with them. All of this gear gets put in a large heavy duty bag and is hauled up after each section (called a pitch) that they climb. Climbers will generally climb a 50m pitch then stop and set up a pulley system to haul up the bag. If the rope has a mass of 0.05 kg per meter, the bag of gear has a mass 20kg and the rope is 50m long, how much work (in N-m) is required to pull up all the rope plus the haul bag?arrow_forwardA block with a mass of 6.18kg slides down a ramp inclined at 30.0o. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and ramp is uk=0.490. The kinetic friction force acting on the block as it slides has a magnitude of ________N.arrow_forwardA 20-kg sled is being pulled along the horizontal snow-covered ground by a horizontal force of 28 N.

What can you say about the kinetic friction when the bricks are pushed across a tabletop with constant speed?arrow_forwardA 15 kg box is pulled with an applied force of 40 N with a rope at an angle of 40 degrees above the horizontal with a constant velocity. The box is pulled 10.0 m over a time of 5.0 seconds. Determine the power of the person pulling the box.arrow_forwardYou have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 1515 lb and was traveling eastward. Car B weighs 1125 lb and was traveling westward at 42.0 mph. The cars locked bumpers and slid eastward with their wheels locked for 18.5 ft before stopping. You have measured the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement to be 0.750. What speed u (in miles per hour) was car A traveling just before the collision? (This problem uses English units because they would be used in a U.S. legal proceeding.) V = x10 TOOLS mpharrow_forward
- A light plane of mass 1000kg makes an emergency landing on a short runway. With its engine off, it lands on the runway at a speed of 40m⋅s-1 . A hook on the plane snags a cable attached to a 120kg sandbag and drags the sandbag along. If the coefficient of friction between the sandbag and the runway is µk = 0.4, and if the plane’s brakes give an additional retarding force of magnitude 1400N, how far does the plane go before it comes to a stop?arrow_forwardAn extreme skier, starting from rest, coasts down a mountain that makes an angle of 35.3 ° with the horizontal.

Without slowing down, she skis off the cliff and lands downhill at a point whose vertical distance is 4.32 m below the edge. How fast is she going just before she lands?arrow_forwardA basketball player of mass m=88.4 kg jumps straight up for a ball.

- Emma and Katie are racing along in their new wagon. Upon reaching the bottom of the hill traveling at 13.2 m/s, Katie notices her teddy bear 12.0 m in front of them, panics and locks the brakes sending the wagon into a skid.

The block has coefficients of friction us=0.64 and uk=0.54 with the surface of the slope. It is connected using a very light string over an ideal pulley to a hanging block of mass 2.0 kg. The string above the slope pulls parallel to the surface. What is the minimum mass m so the system will remain at rest when it is released from rest?arrow_forward
