You decide to start training to become a faster sprinter. On day 1, you timed your 100m dash and your final time was 18 seconds. After training for a month, on day 30, your final time was 15.5 seconds. Assume your overall mass of 65kg and your % leg mass (17%) remained constant. (a) Find your average speed for both days of training (b) If you apply 350N of force on the ground in the horizontal direction with every step, determine your stride length if your final velocity at the finish line on day 2 was 7.5 m/s.

The coefficient of friction between the tires of Shirley's 1985 Ford Coupe and the dry pavement is 0.74. She doesn't drive the car often because it's becoming an antique, but she took it out for a gentle drive yesterday. While driving, she has to suddenly and forcefully brake when the light turned red. She probably shouldn't have been texting and driving! Her car (mass = 1.22x10° kg) skids to %3D a stop with an acceleration of m/s2. Use the approximation g = 10 m/s2.
An Athlete pulls a 20 kilograms crate along Lane A of the storage house. Lane A is a 15m aisle. Using the yellow rope, he exerted an 80N force 15 degrees above the horizontal. suppose the athelete met his coach at the end of the aisle and he added 5kg item on the crate and instructed him to bring the item to next aisle (Lane B) which was also 15m long. Starting from rest, beginning in Lane B, the athelet pulls the crate with 95N force 15 degrees above horizontal using the rope. The athelete reaches the end of the row of Lane B at 2.5 meters per second. Question: How much work is done by the Athelete? What is his change in the kinetic energy of the crate at the end of Lane B? Lastly, how large is the average friction force that had acted on the crate? Please show solution or formula used. Thank you!

A box of mass 11.6 kg is slid along the floor. The initial speed of the box is 1.8 m/s and it comes to rest after 9.2 m. What was the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the box during this motion? You must enter you answer and include the Sl units. (For example: 3.0kg) Answer: Check
Two horses pull a cart with a total applied force of 1000N. The kinetic friction from the gravel road has a value of 375 N. Assuming the cart is 200kg, what is the acceleration of it?The road is flat and the horses are traveling in a straight path.
At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 102m long. The accident was occurred on a rainy day, and the coefficient of kinetic friction was estimated to be 0.36. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes.
You have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 1515 lb and was traveling eastward. Car B weighs 1125 lb and was traveling westward at 43.0 mph. The cars locked bumpers and slid eastward with their wheels locked for 17.5 ft before stopping. You have measured the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement to be 0.750 . What speed ? (in miles per hour) was car A traveling just before the collision? (This problem uses English units because they would be used in a U.S. legal proceeding.).
A box of mass 10.2 kg is slid along the floor. The initial speed of the box is 2.5 m/s and it comes to rest after 8.1 m. What was the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the box during this motion? You must enter you answer and include the SI units. (For example: 3.0kg)
A force of 1.50 N acts on a 0.20-kg carts so as to uniformly accelerate it along a straight air track. The track and force are horizontal and in line. How fast is the cart going after acceleration from rest through 30 cm, if friction is negligible?
A force of magnitude 11.6N pushes a block of mass 2m which in turn pushes a block of mass m. The blocks are accelerated across a horizontal, frictionless surfac. What is the magnitude of the force that the smaller block exerts on the larger block?

You bring a small remote controlled boat with a mass of 2.2kg to a small pond to rest it out. Starting from rest, you run the boat at full throttle for a little while. After the boat has traveled a distance of 11.8 meters, it is traveling with a speed of 7.5 m/s. If the forward force of thrust acting on the boat is 12.0 N, determine the magnitude of the backward force of "water resistance" acting on the boat.
