You will need to look up the definition of a nautical mile to use in converting the unit for speed, where 1 knot equals 1 nautical mile per hour.arrow_forwardPhysics Review An athlete lifts a 175-kg barbell through a vertical displacement of 2.00 m, requiring 4.30 s for the lift. (a) Calculate the average mechanical power he must deliver to the barbell during the lift. (b) For a short period he lifts the barbell at a constant speed of 0.600 m/s. What instantaneous power does he deliver so the barbell during the time?

- Consider the following scenario. A car for which friction is not negligible accelerates from rest down a hill, running out of gasoline after a short distance. The driver lets the car coast farther down the hill, then up and over a small crest. He then coasts down that hill into a gas station, where he brakes to a stop and fills the tank with gasoline. Identify the forms of energy the car has, and how they are changed and transferred in this series of events. (See Figure 7.34.) Figure 7.34 A car experiencing non-negligible friction coasts down a hill, over a small crest then dill again, and comes to a stop at a gas station.arrow_forwardA sled of mass m is given a kick on a frozen pond. The kick imparts to the sled an initial speed of 2.00 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and ice is 0.100.

- A 300 g hockey puck is shot across an ice-covered pond. Before the hockey puck was hit, the puck was at rest. After the hit, the puck has a speed of 40 m/s.
