Ken and Barbie are skating together on a rink at 3.00 m/s.
Ken keeps asking Barbie how much she weights. Annoyed, Barbie pushes away from Ken so that she speeds up to 4.0 m/s and he slows down to 2.25 m/s in the same direction. Assuming that the friction is negligible, if Ken's mass is 70 kg, what is Barbie's mass?
A 3.0-kg and a 5.0-kg box rest side-by-side on a smooth, level floor. A horizontal force of 32 N is applied to the 3.0-kg box pushing it against the 5.0-kg box, and, as a result, both boxes slide along the floor. How large is the contact force between the two boxes?
Nakyum and Alex are on a trip to Bohol Philippines. Suddenly the car runs out of fuel then stops (Picture A). Alex volunteers to push the car to the side of the road. He pushes it hard, but he can't move the car. A bystander helps him then the car accelerates (Picture B).
