In the figure a block slides along a path that is without friction until the block reaches the section of length L = 0.66 m, which begins at height h = 1.1 m, on a ramp of angle = 32°. In that section the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.410. The block passes through point A with a speed of 8.4 m/s. If the block can reach point B (where the friction ends), what is its speed there, and if it cannot, what is its greatest height above A? Number i 6.46 Unit m/s <

In an iconic movie scene, Forrest Gump (https://openstaxcollege.org/l/21ForrGumpvid) runs around the country. If he is running at a constant speed of 3 m/s, would it take him more or less energy to run uphill or downhill and why?
When a body slides down an inclined plane, does the work of friction depend on the body’s initial speed? Answer the same question for a body sliding down a curved surface.
Consider a particle on which a force acts that depends on the position of the particle. This force is given by . Find the work done by this force when the particle moves from the origin to a point 5 meters to the right on the x-axis.
An electric scooter has a battery capable of supplying 120 Wh of energy. If friction forces and other losses account for 60.0% of the energy usage, what altitude change can a rider achieve when driving in hilly ter-rain if the rider and scooter have a combined weight of 890 N?
Repeat the preceding problem, but this time, suppose that the work done by air resistance cannot be ignored. Let the work done by the air resistance when the skier goes from A to B along the given hilly path be —2000 J. The work done by air resistance is negative since the air resistance acts in the opposite direction to the displacement. Supposing the mass of the skier is 50 kg, what is the speed of the skier at point B ?
The skateboarder in the drawing starts down the left side of the ramp with an initial speed of 6.3 ft/s.
