A hockey puck struck by a hockey stick is given an initial speed y in the positive x-direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ice and the puck is µz. (a) Obtain an expression for the acceleration of the puck. (b) Use the result of part (a) to obtain an expression for the distance d the puck slides. The answer should be in terms of the variables , lp and gonly.

A block of mass m = 3 kg is sliding along a frictionless inclined surface that makes an angleof φφ = 300with respect to the horizontal surface.At the lowest points of the inclined surface, a projectile is fired at a speed of vv0 = 12 m/s thatmakes an angle θ0 = 450 with respect to the horizontal. Our aim of this problem is to find thetime when the projectile will hit the block. Find the time when the projectile hits the block. (Given, the initial distance between the blockand the projectile along the inclined surface at t = 0 is RR0 = 10 m as shown in the figure) Find the height h, where the projectile will hit the block.(c) Now assume that the projectile hits the block at its maximum range R along the inclinedsurface and the block is not sliding at all. Then find the maximum range along the inclinedsurface, RRmmmmmm = ?

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the loingest home run ever measured was hit by Roy "Dizzy" Carlyle in a minor league game, with the ball traveling 188 m (i.e. 618ft) befor landing on the ground outside of the ballpark. Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 45.0 degress abbout the horizontal (ignoring air resistace), what did the initital speeed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run given that the ball was hit at a point 0.900 m (i.e. 3.00ft) about ground level. Assume the ground is flat and explain how the assuumption that the ground is flat is required to complete this calculation.
