please make a free body diagram based on the problem with labels. no need to solve the problem A child rolls a 0.600-kg basketball up a long ramp. The basketball can be considered a thin-walled, hollow sphere. When the child releases the basketball at the bottom of the ramp, it has a speed of 8.0 m/s. When the ball returns to her after rolling up the ramp and then rolling back down, it has a speed of 4.0 m/s. Assume that the work done by friction on the basketball is the same when the ball moves up or down the ramp and that the basketball rolls without slipping. Find the maximum vertical height increase of the ball as it rolls up the ramp.
A small block with a mass of 0.0600 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Figure 1). The block is originally revolving at a distance of 0.39 m from the hole with a speed of 0.71 m/s. The cord is then pulled from below, shortening the radius of the circle in which the block revolves to 0.19 m. At this new distance, the speed of the block is 1.46 m/s. How much work was done by the person who pulled on the cord?
Only part (b) The head of a grass string trimmer has 100 g of cord wound in a light cylindrical spool with inside diameter 3.00 cm and outside diameter 18.0 cm, as in Figure P10.50. The cord has a linear density of 10.0 g/m. A single strand of the cord extends 16.0 cm from the outer edge of the spool. (a) When switched on, the trimmer speeds up from 0 to 2 500 rev/min in 0.215 s. (a) What average power is delivered to the head by the trimmer motor while it is accelerating? (b) When the trimmer is cutting grass, it spins at 2 000 rev/min and the grass exerts an average tangential force of 7.65 N on the outer end of the cord, which is still at a radial distance of 16.0 cm from the outer edge of the spool. What is the power delivered to the head under load?

A child pushing the loaded cart loses control, and the cart rolls into a concrete lamppost, which sustains no damage. The cart is moving at 2.0 m/s when it strikes the lamppost, and the groceries all crash forward on impact, moving the center of mass forward by 0.10 m before everything comes to a halt. A.What is the work done by the post on the system? Express your answer with the appropriate units. B.What is the change in kinetic energy of the system's center of mass? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
