You push a box of mass 20.6 kg with your car up to an icy hill slope of irregular shape to a height 4.3 m. The box has a speed 12.3 m/s when it starts up the hill, the same time that you brake. It then rises up to the top (withno friction) to a flat area before sliding into a box larger box of mass 19 kg. The boxes then fall off a sheer cliff together to the ground (with no drag).How much energy Is lost In the process?

The 78.5-kg swimmer in the figure starts a race with an initial velocity of 1.4 m/s and exerts an average force of 78.5 N backward with his arms during each 1.80 m long stroke. What is the subsequent average resistance force, in newtons, from the water during 5.25s it takes him to reach his top velocity of 2.55 m/s?
You set up a ramp as depicted to practice your skateboard skills. The ramp is a wooden board L=9.0 m long and is propped up between the ground level at one end and h=1.5 m at the other end. You approach the ramp from the right (higher ground) at 13 m/s. How fast are you once you get past the ramp (lower ground)? Assume your mass is 75 kg and a constant friction of 72 on the ramp.
An ice skater is at rest on top of a 10-meter high hill, inclined at a 30-degree angle. If he slides downhill (with friction coefficient of 0.01), what is his speed as he reaches the ground level? O 192.6 m/s O Cannot be determined since the mass of skater is not given. O 13.88 m/s O 196 m/s
f-5-3 N 18. A block of ice with mass 2.00 kg slides 0.605 m down an inclined plane that slopes downward at an angle of 30.2° below the horizontal. If the block of ice starts from rest, what is its final speed? You can ignore friction. Express your answer in meters per second.
A 22 g golf ball is placed at the top of a loop de loop track 45 cm above the top of a desk and released from rest. After the ball moves through the track, it rolls off of the table. If the table is 1.75 meters tall, how far does the golf ball travel before hitting the ground? (Friction and air resistance are negligable)
A playground slide consists of a vertical ladder and the ramp down to the ground. The angle between the ladder and the ramp is 40.0 degrees. A child starts from rest at the top of the ramp slides down 1.40 m to the bottom of the ramp. What is the speed of the child in m/s if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the child and the ramp is 0.875?
The drawing shows two boxes resting on frictionless ramps. One box is relatively light and sits on a steep ramp. The other box is heavier and rests on a ramp that is less steep. The boxes are released from rest at A and allowed to slide down the ramps. The two boxes have masses of 8 and 33 kg. If A and B are 4.5 and 0.5 m, respectively, above the ground, determine the speed of (a) the lighter box and (b) the heavier box when each reaches B. (c) What is the ratio of the kinetic energy of the heavier box to that of the lighter box at B?

A sledgehammer of mass m = 1.1 kg falls freely vertically downward from a height of h = 2.5 m at an initial speed of v = 11.5 m/s before striking a partially buried piling. After the blow the piling has moved d = 0.065 m deeper. How much kinetic energy, in joules, does the sledgehammer have just before striking the piling? How much force, in newtons, was applied to the piling? Assume all the energy goes towards driving the piling into the ground, and the force of the sledgehammer is constant over the distance d that the piling is driven into the ground. Note that you can ignore the change in potential energy of the piling itself. Further, because d is so small compared to h, you can also ignore the change in potential energy of the hammer as well as it moves distance d.
