An athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a velocity of 8.5 m/s upward. What maximum height does she reach? (a) 13 m (b) 2.3 m (c) 3.7 m (d) 0.27 m (e) The answer cant be determined because the mass of the athlete isnt given.
Two blocks are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley as in Figure P5.38. The system is released from rest while m2 is on the floor and m1 is a distance h above the floor. (a) Assuming m1 m2, Find an expression for the speed of m1 just as it reaches the floor. (b) Taking m1 = 6.5 kg, m2 = 4.2 kg, and h = 3.2 m, evaluate your answer to part (a), and (c) find the speed of each block when m1 has fallen a distance of 1.6 m. Figure P5.38
In the figure, a 4.4 kg block slides along a track from one level to a higher level after passing through an intermediate valley. The track is frictionless until the block reaches the higher level.

Starting from rest, a block of mass m=5.0 kg slides down a frictionless ramp from point A to point C, then encounters a patch of surface of length L with coefficient of friction k=0.3 between points C and D as in Figure 4.

Calculate the work done by friction between C and D. D. Calculate the velocity v at point D. E. How long would the friction patch need to be increased to in order to bring the object to rest?
A small block slides down a frictionless track whose shape is described by y = (x^2) /d for x<0 and by y = -(x^2)/d for x>0. The value of d = 3.16m, and x and y are measured in meters as usual. The block starts at x = 0, and is given a push to the left with an initial speed of 2.60 m/s, so it starts sliding up the track to the left. At what value of x will the block reverse direction and start sliding back down? 0.34 m -0.34 m -1.04 m 1.04 m
A block slides along a track with an initial velocity vo = 7.0 m/s from one level to a higher level after passing through an intermediate valley. The difference h from the initial position to the elevated track is 0.89 m. The track is frictionless until reaches the top. There (at the top), a frictional force stops the block in a distance d. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.60. Find the distance d.
The skateboarder in the drawing 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?
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.
A frustrated physics student throws her physics text straight down with a speed of 15 m/s from a 50 m high bridge. Neglecting air friction, how much time would it take for the book to reach the water? 2.0 s 1.6 s 3.6 s 2.9 s
A man is skiing on a winter day, initially with a speed of 2 m/s then eventually slowing down. How much distance did he travel as he stops if the friction coefficient of the surface is 0.1? (Provide full solution of the problem).
A block slides along a track from one level to a higher level, by moving through an intermediate valley. The track is frictionless until the block reaches the higher level. The frictional force stops the block in a distant d. The block’s initial speed vo is 6.0 m/s; the height difference h is 1.1 m; and the coefficient of kinetic friction µ is 0.60. Find d.
