Question
11. A 60.0-kg person rides in elevator while standing on a scale. The elevator is traveling
downward but slowing down at a rate of 2.00 m/s2. The reading on the scale is closest to
12 A block is given a very brief push up a 20.0° frictionless incline to give it an initial speed
of 12.0 m/s.
(a) How far along the surface of the plane does the block slide before coming to rest?
(b) How much time does it take to return to its starting position?
