(II) Suppose the roller-coaster car in Fig. 6–41 passes point 1with a speed of 1.30 m/s If the average force of friction isequal to 0.23 of its weight, with what speed will it reachpoint 2? The distance traveled is 45.0 m.
41. (II) Chris jumps off a bridge with a bungee cord (a heavy
stretchable cord) tied around his ankle, Fig. 6–42. He falls
for 15 m before the bungee cord begins to stretch. Chris's
mass is 75 kg and we assume the cord obeys Hooke's law,
F = -kx, with k = 55 N/m. If we neglect air resistance,
estimate what distance d below the bridge Chris's foot will
be before coming to a stop. Ignore the mass of the cord
(not realistic, however) and treat Chris as a particle.
