Chapter 10, Problem 7IP
A soccer ball is kicked with an initial horizontal speed of 5 m/s and an initial vertical speed of 3 m/s. Assuming that projection and landing heights are the same and neglecting air resistance, identify the following quantities:
a. The ball’s horizontal speed 0.5 s into its flight
b. The ball’s horizontal speed midway through its flight
c. The ball’s horizontal speed immediately before contact with the ground
d. The ball’s vertical speed at the apex of the flight
e. The ball’s vertical speed midway through its flight
f. The ball’s vertical speed immediately before contact with the ground

The “mean-speed theorem” for finding average velocity under constant acceleration, proposed by the Oxford Calculators, and demonstrated geometrically by Nicole Oresme, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
(vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
A scientist was investigating if differences in the frictional work performed on a model car can change
depending on its mass (in grams) and whether the car moves up or down an inclined plane. They decided to
measure the amount of frictional force experienced by the model car and the distance it traveled in meters.
The scientists were able to evaluate the frictional work using the following data.
Mass (g)
Distance (m) Force
Work Done by Friction (J)

It is known that the relationship between force and distance determines the work done by friction (W+).
W₁ = fd
Wf work done by friction
f = force
d = distance
Question:
How much work done by friction was exerted on the car as it moved down the inclined plane?
