*67. ssm A bicyclist is coasting straight down a hill at a constant speed. The com- bined mass of the rider and bicycle is 80.0 kg, and the hill is inclined at 15.0° with respect to the horizontal. Air resistance opposes the motion of the cyclist. Later, the bicyclist climbs the same hill at the same constant speed. How much force (directed parallel to the hill) must be applied to the bicycle in order for the bicyclist to climb the hill?

Starting from rest, a 57.0 kg woman jumps down to the floor from a height of 0.800 m, and immediately jumps back up into the air. While she is in contact with the ground during the time interval 0 < t < 0.800 s, the force she exerts on the floor can be modeled using the function
the driver of a car on a horizontal road makesan emergency stop by applying the brakes so that all four wheelslock and skid along the road.The coefficient of kinetic friction betweentires and road is 0.40.The separation between the front andrear axles is L = 4.2 m, and the center of mass of the car is locatedat distance d =1.8 m behind the front axle and distance h = 0.75 mabove the road. The car weighs 11 kN.

Two constant forces of magnitudes F1 and F2, act on a particle of mass 5.00 [kg] which is at rest at the origin. The force F1 points at 14.5° west of north, while the force F2, points at 58.3° west of south. Due to the two forces, the particle accelerates and is later located at 32.4 [m], 17.0° north of west with speed 12.2 [m/s]. What is F1?
At the scene of an accident, two traffic experts appear to determine which of the drivers was at fault considering that it was a highway where the speed limit is 80 km / h. The data collected in the field indicate that the vehicles stuck and skidded together a length of 25 m on the pavement whose dynamic friction coefficient is μk = 0.30. Considering that the masses of vehicles A and B are 2300 kg and 1500 kg, respectively, specify which of the cars was speeding at the moment of impact and by how much it exceeded the speed limit. Express your result in km / h for the purposes of the expertise.
A particle, which remains at rest, is acted on by three forces: F, G & H. The force F has a magnitude of 45N and is directed to the left and down making an angle of 45 degrees with the vertical. The force G is directed horizontally right and H is directed to the right and up making an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical. Find the magnitude of the vectors G and H to 1 d.p.
