Malar is playing with a toy car track set and has made a vetical loop she wants to send a 150-gram car around. She has a hill for the car to roll down and if she releases it from a height of 24 cm above the top of the loop, which has a radius of 20 cm, it goes around the loop and exits with a speed of 3.12 m/s. How much energy was lost due to friction (between the car and the sides of the track, and the car's axels) during the entire trip? Hint:

A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earths surface with an initial speed of 2.00 104 m/s. What will its speed be when it is very far from the Earth? Ignore atmospheric friction and the rotation of the Earth. P11.26 Ki+Ui=Kf+Uf12mvi2+GMEm(1rf1ri)=12mvf212vi2+GME(01RE)=12vf2orvf2=v122GMEREandvf=(v122GMERE)1/2,vf=[(2.00104)21.25108]1/2m/s=1.66104m/s
A massless spring of constant k = 78.4 N/m is fixed on the left side of a level track. A block of mass m = 0.50 kg is pressed against the spring and compresses it a distance d, as in Figure P7.74. The block (initially at rest) is then released and travels toward a circular loop-the-loop of radius R = 1.5 m. The entire track and the loop-the-loop are frictionless, except for the section of track between points A and B. Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the track along AB is k = 0.30 and that the length of AB is 2.5 m, determine the minimum compression d of the spring that enables the block to just make it through the loop-the-loop at point C. Hint: The force exerted by the track on the block will be zero if the block barely makes it through the loop-the-loop. Figure P7.74
A small particle of mass m is pulled to the top of a friction less half-cylinder (of radius R) by a light cord that passes over the top of the cylinder as illustrated in Figure P7.15. (a) Assuming the particle moves at a constant speed, show that F = mg cos . Note: If the particle moves at constant speed, the component of its acceleration tangent to the cylinder must be zero at all times. (b) By directly integrating W=Fdr, find the work done in moving the particle at constant speed from the bottom to the top of the hall-cylinder. Figure P7.15
The perihelion of Halley’s comet is 0.586 AU and the aphelion is 17.8 AU. Given that its speed at perihelion is 55 km/s, what is the speed at aphelion ( IAU=1.4961011m )? (Hint: You may use either conservation of energy or angular momentum, but the latter is much easier.)

A matchbox car track begins at a height y=1.0, goes down hill to y=0, goes around a vertical loop of radius 0.2 m and then goes back up a smaller hill to end at a height y=0.3 m. The speed of the car at the end of the track is closest to which value?

A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.0-mm-high, 20∘∘ ramp, sail across a 10-mm-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as he starts up the ramp. He is going 10.4 m/sm/s at that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires (coefficient 0.02) is not negligible. Justify your answer by calculating the distance he travels through the air after leaving the end of the ramp. x =
