An object with mass m = 34 kg is pushed with 452 N of force to be moved across a distance of 4.6 m on a surface with friction. Initially the object is moving at vi = 0.82 m/s and after being moved across 4.6 m, the final speed is 2.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the object in the unit of N
Keep the track tilted at 13∘∘ with the horizontal. Put the friction block on the track surface at the top of the track. Let the friction block slide downwards. The length of the track is 74 cm. Starting from zero speed at the top of the track, what will be the speed of the friction block as it reaches the bottom? Write your answer in m/s. Use μμk = 0.13 and mass of the friction block = 400 grams.
A rock of mass m falls from the top of a cliff and it
experiences a significant amount of air drag as it
falls.
The rock has a mass of 3.6 kg and the cliff is 55 m tall. If it is going 22 m/s when it hits the ground,
what was the average force of air resistance?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

- A desperate hiker has to think fast to help his friend who has fallen below him. Quickly, he ties a rope to a rock of mA = 405 kg and makes his way over the ledge (see the figure below). If the coefficient of static friction between the rock and the ground is H=0.348, and the mass of the hiker is ma= 70.1 kg, what is the maximum mass of the friend, mc, that the rock can hold so the hikers can then make their way up over the ledge?
