In the very Dutch sport of Fierljeppen, athletes run up to a long pole and then use it to vault across a canal. At the very top of his arc, a 55 kg vaulter is moving at 2.5 m/s and is 5.1 m from the bottom end of the pole. What vertical force does the pole exert on the vaulter?
Two figure skaters are coasting in the same direction, with the leading skater moving at 5.5 m/s and the trailing skating moving at 6.2 m/s. When the trailing skater catches up with the leading skater, he picks her up without applying any horizontal forces on his skates. If the trailing skater is 50 heavier than the 50-kg leading skater, what is their speed after he picks her up?
A drone is being directed across a frictionless ice covered lake. The mass of the drone is 1.50 kg, and its velocity is 3.00i ^ m/s . After 10.0 s, the velocity is 9.00i ^ + 4.00j ^ m/s . If a constant force in the horizontal direction is causing this change in motion, find (a) the components of the force and (b) the magnitude of the force.
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 40.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 28.2 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.033 second, what is the magnitude of force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?

A particle, which remains at rest, is acted on by three forces F, G and H. The force F has magnitude 16N and is directed to the right and down, making an angle of 50 degrees with the horizontal. The force G has magnitude 7N and is directed to the left and down, making an angle of 50 degrees with the horizontal. Find the magnitude of the vector H, and the acute angle it makes with the horizontal. Give the magnitude to one decimal place and the angle to the nearest degree. What is the magnitude of H and what is the acute angle H makes with the horizon?
The x and y coordinates of a 4.00-kg particle moving in the xy plane under the influence of a net force F are given by x = t4 6t and y = 4t2 + 1, with x and y in meters and t in seconds. What is the magnitude of the force F at t = 4.00 s?

A particle of mass 1.05 kg is subject to a force that is always pointed towards the East but whose magnitude changes linearly with time t. The magnitude of the force is given as F = 4t, and has units of newtons. Let the x-axis point towards the East. Determine the change in x-coordinate in meters of the particle Δx between t = 0 and t = 2.4 if the initial velocity is 17.5 m/s, and pointed in the same direction as the force.
