Three youths push a 40.0-kg block of ice so that it begins to coast on a frozen lake. With an initial speed Vi of 3.00 m/s, the block of ice now moves up an icy ramp at the edge of the lake.
Neglecting air resistance and in the absence of any friction between the ice block and the frozen lake and ramp, use the CMEP to calculate how high up the ramp (h in the figure) the block of
ice moves before stopping. As a suggestion, use the base of the ramp as GZ.

A car weighing 2.5 metric tons and traveling at 90 km/h hits a 500 m long stretch of black
ice. Unfortunately, due to skidding, neither accelerating nor braking has any effect on the
speed! The driver manages to maintain steady straight direction of motion and the only
impact is provided by the ice friction force, which is numerically equal to 4v² Newtons, where
the velocity v of the car is measured in m/sec.
(a) Using Newton's Second Law F = ma, set up a mathematical model for the position
x(t) and velocity v(t) of the car as functions of time t. Start by drawing a diagram and
choosing a consistent system of units based on kg, m, sec (1 ton = 1000 kg, 1 m/sec =
3.6 km/h, 1 N = 1 kg · m/sec²). Introduce and label the variables, show the units and
write down the differential equations and the intial conditions.
(b) Use the model in part a to calculate v(t) and x(t). Fully show the process of solving the
initial value problems.
(c) Based on your work so far, how long will it take to pass…
