- A girl on a skateboard (total mass of 40 kg) is moving at a speed of 12 m/s at the bottom of a long ramp. The ramp is inclined at 13° with respect to the horizontal. If she travels 13.9 m upward along the ramp before stopping, what is the net frictional force (in N) on her? (Assume the positive direction is upward along the ramp. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)arrow_forwardA 2,000 kg car is traveling at a rate of 40 m/s when an external force of 22,750 N, opposite in direction to the motion, caused a quarter reduction of speed, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction when the force was applied for 3 seconds?

- Problem-2: An ice block floating in a river has a displacement given by, d = 5i - 2j (meters) The block is pushed by a force F = 2i + 2j (Newton) If the initial speed of the block is 0, find its final kinetic energy.arrow_forwardListen> Read the scenario. A cyclist is riding his bike at a constant speed of 5 m/s, and experiences a frictional force between the bike and sidewalk of 100 N. The cyclist then changes his speed to 10 m/s. What effect does this increase in speed have on the frictional force between the bike and sidewalk? The frictional force doubles because when speed increases frictional force also increases. The frictional force between the bike and sidewalk stays the same because speed does not affect frictional force. The frictional force becomes half of what it was because when speed increases, frictional force decreases. The frictional force increases, but does not double because although friction increases with increasing speed, it does not increase as fast.
