A child of mass m starts from rest and slides without friction from a height h along a curved waterslide (Fig. P5.46). She is launched from a height h/5 into the pool. (a) Is mechanical energy conserved? Why? (b) Give the gravitational potential energy associated with the child and her kinetic energy in terms of mgh at the following positions: the top of the waterslide, the launching point, and the point where she lands in the pool. (c) Determine her initial speed V0 at the launch point in terms of g and h. (d) Determine her maximum airborne height ymax in terms of h, g, and the horizontal speed at that height, v0x. (e) Use the x-component of the answer to part (c) to eliminate from the answer to part (d), giving the height ymax in terms of g, h, and the launch angle . (f) Would your answers be the same if the waterslide were not frictionless? Explain. Figure P5.46

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?
A 1.5-kg box is released from rest on a frictionless surface that is sloped at θ = 35◦ above the horizontal.After sliding 1.0 m down the slope, the box transitions smoothly to a rough, horizontal surface, slides forsome distance, and then comes to a stop. If the coefcient of kinetic friction between the box and thehorizontal surface is 0.12, how far along the horizontal surface does the box travel?

The thrust produced by a single jet engine generates a force of F = 96000 N. Which requires the jet (with a mass of m = 9900 kg) a distance of d = 0.89 km to take off.What is the take-off speed of the jet vt in m/s? How far in meters would you need to depress a giant spring k = 100,000 N/m in order to launch the jet at the same speed without help from the engine?
