Consider a wooden ramp angled 31.7 degrees above horizontal. If a 20.3-kg wooden block is given a strong shove up the ramp so that it has an initial velocity of 22.9 m/s, how long (in seconds) will it take the block to reach its maximum height (before it starts sliding down)? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is 0.402.

A 75.0-g arrow, fired at a speed of 110 m/s to the left, impacts a tree, which it penetrates to a depth of 12.5 cm before coming to a stop. Assuming the force of friction exerted by the tree is constant, what are the magnitude and direction of the friction force acting on the arrow?
If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object.
