Two blocks, A and B (with mass 50.0 kg and 1.00 102 kg, respectively), are connected by a string, as shown in Figure P5.86. The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the incline is k = 0.250. Determine the change in the kinetic energy of block A as it moves from to , a distance of 20.0 m up the incline (and block B drops downward a distance of 20.0 m) if the system starts from rest.

Gayle runs at a speed of 4.00 m/s and dives on a sled, initially at rest on the top of a frictionless, snow-covered hill. After she has descended a vertical distance of 5.00 m. her brother, who is initially at rest, hops on her back, and they continue down the hill together. What is their speed at the bottom of the hill if the total vertical drop is 15.0 m? Gayle's mass is 50.0 kg, the sled has a mass of 5.00 kg, and her brother has a mass of 30.0 kg.
(a) Calculate the force needed to bring a 950-kg car to rest from a speed of 90.0 km/h in a distance of 120 m (a fairly typical distance for a non-panic stop). (b) Suppose instead the car hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force exerted on the car and compare it with the force found in part (a).

(a) A 75-kg man steps out a window and falls (from rest) 1.0 m to a sidewalk. What is his speed just before his feet strike the pavement? (b) If the man falls with his knees and ankles locked, the only cushion for his fall is an approximately 0.50-cm give in the pads of his feet. Calculate the average force exerted on him by the ground during this 0.50 cm of travel. This average force is sufficient to cause damage to cartilage in the joints or to break bones.
If a 1.5 kg object is initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface and subjected to a 14.9 N force in the positive x-direction over a distance of 3.14 meters, what will the object’s final speed be? Assume the answer in in m/s.
A net force along the x-axis that has x-component Fx = −12.0N + (0.300N/m2)x2 is applied to a 5.00 kg object that is initially at the origin and moving in the -x-direction with a speed of 6.00 m/s. What is the speed of the object when it reaches the point x = 5.00 m?
A golf club strikes a 0.062-kg golf ball in order to launch it from the tee. For simplicity, assume that the average net force applied to the ball acts parallel to the ball’s motion, has a magnitude of 6120 N, and is in contact with the ball for a distance of 0.0080 m. With what speed does the ball leave the club?
