A child slides down a snow-covered slope on a sled. At the top of the slope, her mother gives her a push to start her off with a speed of 0.85 m/s. The frictional force acting on the sled is one-fifth of the combined weight of the child and the sled. If she travels for a distance of 24.5 m and her speed at the bottom is 3.75 m/s, calculate the angle that the slope makes with the horizontal.

Two blocks, A and B (with mass 50.0 kg and 1.00 102 kg, respectively), are connected by a string, as shown in Figure P5.86. The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the incline is k = 0.250. Determine the change in the kinetic energy of block A as it moves from to , a distance of 20.0 m up the incline (and block B drops downward a distance of 20.0 m) if the system starts from rest. Figure P5.86
When a body slides down an inclined plane, does the work of friction depend on the body’s initial speed? Answer the same question for a body sliding down a curved surface.
The system shown in Figure P5.43 is used to lift an object of mass m = 76.0 kg. A constant downward force of magnitude F is applied to the loose end of the rope such that the hanging object moves upward at constant speed. Neglecting the masses of the rope and pulleys, find (a) the required value of F, (b) the tensions T1, T2, and T3, and (c) the work done by the applied force in raising the object a distance of 1.80 m. Figure P5.43
A particle moves in a medium under the influence of a retarding force equal to mk(υ3+ a2υ), where k and a are constants. Show that for any value of the initial speed the particle will never move a distance greater than π/2kaand that the particle comes to rest only for t → ∞.
A child slides down a snow‑covered slope on a sled. At the top of the slope, her mother gives her a push to start her off with a speed of 0.70 m/s. The frictional force acting on the sled is one‑fifth of the combined weight of the child and the sled. If she travels for a distance of 24.0 m and her speed at the bottom is 3.90, calculate the angle that the slope makes with the horizontal. slope angle with the horizontal: °
