A speedboat weighing 644 lbs is powered by a constant force of 40 lbs. Friction between the boat and the water is negligible, but there is wind resistance proportional to the velocity of the boat and is 10 lbs. for a speed of 5 fps. Assuming the boat started from rest, find the speed after 10 sec.

A toad with mass of 280 g leaps into the air to catch a fly. If the toad's jump was at an angle of 46 degrees with respect to the horizontal, and with an initial velocity of 4.6 m/s, what is its speed (in m/s) when it reaches its maximum vertical displacement?
Starting from rest, a 92-kg firefighter slides down a fire pole. The average frictional force exerted on him by the pole has a magnitude of 710 N, and his speed at the bottom of the pole is 3.5 m/s. How far did he slide down the pole?
Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the drive force is shut off, the snowmobile coasts to a halt. The snowmobile and its rider have a mass of 125 kg. Under the influence of a drive force of 190 N, it is moving at a constant velocity whose magnitude is 6.27 m/s. The drive force is then shut off. Find (a) the distance in which the snowmobile coasts to a halt and (b) the time required to do so.
A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling horizontally. As the drawing shows, one person hits the water 5.00 m from the end of the slide in a time of 0.627 s after leaving the slide. Ignore friction and air resistance, find the height H in the drawing.

Given: A bowling ball is dropped from the top of a building that has a height of h = 101 m. Assuming air resistance is negligible, what is the ball's speed, vf in m/s, when it strikes the ground? If drag produces an opposing force of 10 N while the ball's falling, what is the ball's speed, vf in m/s, when it strikes the ground? Assume the ball has a mass of 5 kg. A different ball was dropped and the final speed was measured to be vf = 6.5 m/s while the drag force was measured to be 50 Newtons. What is the mass of this ball in kg?

The skateboarder starts down the left side of the ramp with an initial speed of 6.3 ft/s. If nonconservative forces, such as kinetic friction and air resistance, are negligible, what would be the height "h" of the highest point (in meters) reached by the skateboarder on the right side of the ramp?
Using a simple pulley and rope system, a crewman on an Arctic expedition is trying to lower a crate of mass ?1=5.13 kg to the bottom of a steep ravine of height ?=22.5 m. The crewman of mass ?2=60.9 kg is walking while holding the rope, being careful to lower the crate at a constant speed of ?0=1.50 m/s. Unfortunately, when the crate reaches a point ℎ=12.5 m above the ground, the crewman steps on a slick patch of ice and slips. The crate immediately accelerates toward the ground, dragging the hapless crewman across the ice and toward the edge of the cliff. Assuming the ice is perfectly slick, so that there is no friction between the crewman and the ice once he slips and falls down, at what speed ?1 will the crate hit the ground? Assume also that the rope is long enough to allow the crate to hit the ground before the crewman slides over the side of the cliff, and that the pulley is frictionless. ?1=. m/s At what speed ?2 will the crewman hit the bottom of the ravine? Assume no…
