- a. (i) Give an example of an object that has three forces acting on it, and (1) accelerates, (2) moves at constant (nonzero) velocity, and (3) remains at rest. (ii) In terms of work done distinguish between conservative and non-conservative force.arrow_forwardWhen an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for the mechanical energy loss due to frictional forces exerted on the car by the air and the road. If the power developed by the engine is 195 hp, estimate the total friction force acting on the car when it is moving at a speed of 30 m/s. One horsepower equals 746 W.arrow_forwardMultiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals, for it can go from rest to 31.8 m/s in 3.38 s. If its mass is 119 kg, determine the average power developed by the cheetah during the acceleration phase of its motion. Express your answer in (a) watts and (b) horsepower.

- Starting from rest at t = 0, a 5.0-kg block is pulled across a horizontal surface by a constant horizontal force having a magnitude of 12 N. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.20, at what rate is the 12-N force doing work at t = 5.0 s? 26 kW 0.12 kW 0.14 kW 12 kW 0.13 kWarrow_forwardA crate of mass 9.8 kg is pulled up a rough incline with an initial speed of 1.54 m/s. The pulling force is 104 N parallel to the incline, which makes an angle of 20.5° with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.400, and the crate is pulled 4.94 m. (d) What is the change in kinetic energy of the crate?_ J(e) What is the speed of the crate after being pulled 4.94 m?_ m/sarrow_forwardIn the figure below, a block of ice slides down a frictionless ramp at angle 0 = 50° while an ice worker pulls on the block (via a rope) with a force Fr that has a magnitude of 45 N and is directed up the ramp. As the block slides through distance d = 0.31 m along the ramp, its kinetic energy increases by 60 J. How much greater would its kinetic energy have been if the rope had not been attached to the block? ---Select--- F. Aarrow_forward
- A motorist driving a 1332-kg car on level ground accelerates from 20.0 m/s to 30.0 m/s in a time of 5.00 s. Ignoring friction and air resistance, determine the average mechanical power in watts the engine must supply during this time interval.arrow_forwardA skier who initially stands still and weighs 72 kg (including skis) begins to slide down the inclined surface at an angle of 18° to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow surface is μk = 0.12. Calculate the net work done by the forces acting on the skier during the first 7 seconds of the slide.arrow_forwardA box is given a push across a horizontal surface. The box has a mass m, the push gives it an initial speed of V₁, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is Mk. (a) Use energy considerations to find an expression for the distance the box moves before it stops. (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g.) d = 2μ8 (b) What If? If the initial speed of the box is increased by a factor of 4, determine an expression for the new distance dnew the box slides in terms of the old distance d. darrow_forward
- Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skiier, with a combined mass of 77.5 kg, down a 60.0° slope at constant speed, as shown in the Figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.100. b)How much work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled over this distance?arrow_forwardA snowboarder with a mass of 98kg is initially stationary on a hilltop, then slides down on the snowy incline with a kinetic friction coefficient of 0.030 between tl snowboard and the surface. The hill has an approximate angle of elevation equal to 38° from the horizontal and an uphill wind hits him with a force of 0.80N. If the hill is 120m high, what is the speed of the snowboarder as he reaches the ground level? O 48m/s O 34m/s O 42m/s O 30m/sarrow_forwardAn object with mass ? = 1.6 kg is released from rest at a height ℎ = 8 m from the top ofan inclined plane. It slides down the inclined plane without friction then slides across arough surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction ?? = 0.4. What is the speed of the object after it slides 4.2meters across the rough surface?arrow_forward
