Question 1: A girl and her 40kg dog are out walking one summer day when they come to a road they need to cross. The pavement is hot, so the girl borrows a skateboard for her dog and gives him a push to get him across the road so that his feet won’t burn. If the road is 10 meters wide, using the EQUATION OF WORK AND ENERGY, find the magnitude of the initial velocity required so that the dog will coast across the road and come to rest at 10 meters away on the other side of the road. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels and the pavement is 0.3.

A vehicle manufacturer is considering an engine for a new sedan (CD = 0.41, Af = 1.95 m2). The car is being designed to achieve a top speed of 75 kph on a paved surface at sea level (p = 1.225 kg/m³). The car currently weighs 1100 kg, but the designers initially selected an underpowered engine because they did not account for aerodynamic and rolling resistances. What they did not know is that the test is done on a downhill with a grade of %3D 3%.
