Question
A 764-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 6.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2-kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 6.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?

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. If the wagon and its contents have a total mass of 1.50 x10^1 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the rubber wagon tires is (0.75), by how much does the wagon miss the bear?arrow_forwardIn an experiment conducted at Carleton university, following experimental setup has been prepared.

You begin from rest at the bottom of the hill and travel a distance of 23 meters up the hill (measured along the incline), reaching a speed of 14 m/s. You have a mass of 60 kg. Determine the force the wind exerts on the parachute, assuming the force the wind exerts is parallel to the surface of the incline. Use conservation of energy.arrow_forward

The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug and is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 15 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.arrow_forward
