Consider a 5,000-kg truck moving at a speed of 60 km/h when the driver applies the brakes and the truck skids to a stop after travelling a distance of 50 m. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the truck’s tires and the pavement.
The terminal velocity of a human being is 200 km/hr, and it takes about 12 seconds to achieve this. This calculation considers for air friction of course. What would a person’s speed be if they free fell for 12 seconds instead (no air friction present)?
The velocity of a body of mass 20 kg increases from 5 m/s to 20 m/s in a distance of 100 m.
The force exerted on the body is

- When a hockey player takes a shot from deep in his own zone toward the other end of the rink 400 ft away, one hardly notices the puck slowing down at all. The coefficient of kinetic friction between a puck and the ice is about 0.03. If a player shoots at 100 mph, how fast is the puck moving 400 ft later? Express the answer in miles per hour with four significant digits. If the player shoots at 100 mph, how far would the puck go before it comes to rest?
