Chapter 14.4, Problem 46P
To dramatize the loss of energy in an automobile, consider a car having a weight of 5000 lb that is traveling at 35 mi/h. If the car is brought to a stop, determine how long a 100-W light bulb must burn to expend the same amount of energy. (1 mi = 5280 ft.)

A 0.150-kg baseball traveling with a horizontal speed of 4.50m/s is hit by a bat and then moves with a speed of 34.7m/s in the opposite direction. What is the change in the ball’s momentum?
A 1-kg mass is moving upward in a plane inclined 30 ° from the horizontal, at a speed of 18 m / s. How fast will that mass be moving 3 seconds later? Take the acceleration as 10 m / s ^ 2 and neglect the friction.
An aircraft has a wing area of 20 m2 and whose wings resemble the NACA 23012 with no flaps and is flying horizontally (0° angle of attack) at a constant speed of 250 km/h. To gain height the pilot adjusts the controls so that the angle of attack becomes 10°. Take the density of the air as 1.23 kg/m3. Determine the total power required to execute this action at the same constant speed.
