(a) What is the speed of the flake when it reaches the bottom of the bowl? (b) If we substituted a second flake with 3 times the mass, what would its speed be? (c) If, instead, we gave the flake an initial downward speed 1.4 m/s along the bowl, what would the answer be? Ice flake- K

A container of mass 4 kg which holds water of mass 10 kg is full and is lifted vertically starting from the ground with a rope 50 m long and at a constant speed. The tank has a hole in the bottom from which water flows at a constant rate and at the end of the 50 m route it has just emptied. Of each meter of rope has a mass of 0.1 kg, find the total work consumed for lifting the container and the rope. It is given that the acceleration of gravity is 10m / sec 2.
A crate of mass 11.0 kg is pulled up a rough incline with an initial speed of 1.48 m/s. The pulling force is 92 N parallel to the incline, which makes an angle of 20.6° with the horizontal.

While running, a person dissipates about 0.600 J of chemical energy to mechanical energy per step per kilogram of body mass. If a 75.0 kg runner dissipates energy at a rate of 83.0 W during a race, how fast is the person running? Assume a running step is 1.50 m long.
A 58-kg diver is standing on a platform that is 35 meters above the surface of the water. He steps off the platform with zero initial velocity and descends toward the water below. Assuming that no energy is lost to his surroundings, how much kinetic energy (in joules) does the diver have right before he hits the water?
A leaky 10-kg bucket is lifted from the ground to a height of 15 m at a constant speed with a rope that weighs 0.5 kg/m. Initially the bucket contains 45 kg of water, but the water leaks at a constant rate and finishes draining just as the bucket reaches the 15-m level. Find the work done. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g.)
A box slides on a frictionless surface with a total energy of 50 J. It hits a spring and compresses the spring a distance of 25 cm from equilibrium. If the same box with the same initial energy slides on a rough surface, it only compresses the spring a distance of 15 cm, how much energy must have been lost by sliding on the rough surface?

Suppose you have an ice cream cone full of melted ice cream. The ice cream cone is in the shape of a right circular cone and is 0.5 feet tall with a width (diameter) of 0.25 feet at the top. You decide to drink the melted ice cream using a straw positioned at the top of the cone. How much work is necessary to drink all of the ice cream through the straw? Note that the approximate weight-density of melted ice cream is 64.05 pounds per cubic foot. Round your final answer to 3 decimal places.
In the figure, a 2.9 kg block is accelerated from rest by a compressed spring of spring constant 650 N/m.
