When a car gets to the bottom of a hill, the driver releases the accelerator so that the car coasts up the hill. If the car reaches a vertical height of 10 m from the bottom of the hill, what was the initial speed of the car at the bottom? (Neglect rolling friction and assume that the car does not slide.)

Why can a squirrel jump from a tree branch to the ground and run away undamaged, while a human could break a in such a fall?
A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure CQ7.5. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) At what point does the bob have non-zero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (b) At what point does the bob have nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) At what point does the bob have both nonzero tangential and radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? Figure CQ7.5

(b) Calculate its velocity just after it leaves the floor on its way back up. (c) Calculate its acceleration during contact with the floor if that contact lasts 0.0800ms(8.0010-5s) (d) How much did the ball compress during its collision with the floor, assuming the floor is absolutely rigid?
A car of mass m is on an icy driveway inclined at an angle θ as in 5.12a.(A) Find the acceleration of the car, assuming the driveway is frictionless. (B) Suppose the car is released from rest at the top of the incline and the distance from the car’s front bumper to the bottom of the incline is d. How long does it take the front bumper to reach the bottom of the hill, and what is the car’s speed as it arrives there?
I am mostly just wondering about finding the velocity B. I know how to find tension after that. I got Vb= 4.214 m/s for the veloctity but I am not sure if I did it right. Hight initial is 0.702 m This was what I did (1/2)(5)(2^2)+(5)(9.8)(.702)=(1/2)(5)(Vf^2)
Dave with a mass of 60 kg goes tubing down a 20 m long hill that has an angle off the horizon of 25º. (Gravity applies) a. He gets a push from the bottom of the hill, so his initial velocity is 2 m/s. How far up the hill will he go before stopping? (there’s no friction) b. He goes back down the hill and then his friend Jill tries to pull him on the tube across a small patch of grass (μk=0.30). If she is pulling parallel to the ground at constant 5 m/s for 5 sec how much power does she expend? c. After climbing back uphill, Dave decided to roll down the hill instead. If he were to be a long cylinder with a radius of 0.1 m, what is his moment of inertia? d. After rolling without slipping down the hill, what is Dave’s final velocity at the bottom of the hill?

2. To promote their new album, BTS decided to launch a satellite into orbit that will intercept all airwaves and play their songs worldwide. To do this, he needs to mount a 200 [kg] satellite onto a 850 [kg] rocket. It blasts off vertically from a launch pad with a constant net upward acceleration of 3.80 [m/s2]. When it has reached a height of 680 [m], the satellite was released, and the rocket blew up shortly after, due to a system failure. Assume that the satellite was not damaged after the explosion. (a) What is the maximum height that the satellite will reach above the launch pad? (b) How much time will elapse after system failure before the satellite comes crashing down the launch pad?(c) How fast will the satellite be moving just before it crashes?
