Sandy and Chris stand on the edge of a cliff and throw identical mass rocks at the same speed. Sandy throws her rock horizontally while Chris throws his upward at an angle of 45° to the horizontal, terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. Terms can be used in once. Reset Hel the same as Both rocks are thrown from the same height. Therefore, the initial potential energy of Sandy's rock is smaller than the initial potential energy of Chris's rock. greater than The rocks have the same initial speed. Therefore, the initial kinetic energy of Sandy's rock is the initial kinetic energy of Chris's rock. So, the total energy of Sandy's rock is the total energy of Chris's rock. Both rocks reach the ground at the same height. Therefore, the final potential energy of Sandy's rock is that of Chris's rock. Therefore, the kinetic energy (and the speed) of Sandy's rock is that of Chris's rock.

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 ?
Give an example of a situation in which there is a force and a displacement, but the force does no work. Explain why it does no work.
