4. The box of negligible size is sliding down along a curved path defined by the parabola y = 0.38x ^ 2 When it is at A(x_{A} = 2m, y_{A} = 6m) , the speed is v_{B} = 30kph and the increase in speed is d*v_{B} / d * t = 14 m/s^ prime . Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the box at this instant.
Two identical billiard balls may move freely on a horizontal table. Ball A has a velocity of 0.4 m/s as shown, and hits ball B, which is at rest, at point C defined by  = 40 (the line of impact is along 40° path with respect to the horizontal direction). Assuming no friction, and knowing the coefficient of restitution between the two balls is 0.75, determine the velocity of each ball after impact

The 2975 -lb. car is parked on the sloped street. The brakes are applied to both its front and rear wheels. If the coefficient of statics friction between the car’s tires and the road is μ=0.8, what is the steepest slope (in degrees relative to the horizontal) on which the car could remain in equilibrium? If the street were icy and the coefficient of static friction between the car’s tires and the road was μ=0.2, what is the steepest slope on which the car could remain in equilibrium?
The position of a particle in millimeters is given by s = 18 - 11t + t2 where t is in seconds. Plot the s-t and v-t relationships for the first 9 seconds.

The 250000-lb space-shuttle orbiter touches down at about 231 mi/hr. At 195 mi/hr its drag parachute deploys. At 40 mi/hr, the chute is jettisoned from the orbiter. If the deceleration in feet per second squared during the time that the chute is deployed is -0.00031v2 (speed v in feet per second), determine the corresponding distance s traveled by the orbiter. Assume no braking from its wheel brakes.
