QUESTION 14 Two different sleds with sails attached to them are used in a race on a frictionless, horizontal stretch of ice. Both sleds (one of mass m, the other of mass 2m) start from rest, and the wind exerts the same constant force on both sails. Which sled crosses the finish line with more kinetic energy? O The sled of mass m; it has twice as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass 2m The sled of mass 2m; it has four times as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass m The sled of mass 2m; it has twice as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass m The sled of mass m; it has four times as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass 2m Both sleds cross the finish line with the same amount of kinetic energy

QUESTION 14
Two different sleds with sails attached to them are used in a race on a frictionless, horizontal stretch of ice. Both sleds
(one of mass m, the other of mass 2m) start from rest, and the wind exerts the same constant force on both sails. Which
sled crosses the finish line with more kinetic energy?
The sled of mass m; it has twice as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass 2m
The sled of mass 2m; it has four times as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass m
The sled of mass 2m; it has twice as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass m
The sled of mass m; it has four times as much kinetic energy as the sled of mass 2m
O Both sleds cross the finish line with the same amount of kinetic energy
QUESTION 15
Ans
For an object displaced d while acted on by a net constant force F
O the work done by È is zero so long as d and F are perdendicular.
the work done by F is independent of the relative orientation of the force and displacement.
the work done by À is zero so long as is equal in magnitude and in the opposite direction of F.
the work done is generally given by |d||F|sin(e) where e is the angle between d and F.

Answ
A small cannonball with mass 5 kg is traveling horizontally at 66 m/s and hits a large 50 kg wooden block that is initially
at rest on a smooth horizontal bench. Upon impact, the cannonball buries itself inside the block. What is the speed of
the block-cannonball system just after this happens? You can assume that friction is negligble.
330 kg m/s
6 m/s
O 12 m/s

Bill pushes a block up an inclined ramp at constant speed. There is friction between the block and the ramp. The rate at
which Bill's pushing force does work on the block is
O there is not enough information to decide
greater than the rate at which the force of friction does work on the block
the same as the rate at which the force of friction does work on the block
less than the rate at which the force of friction does work on the block
