Chapter 5, Problem 5.69P
Review. A magician pulls a tablecloth from under a 200-g mug located 30.0 cm from the edge of the cloth. The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug, and the cloth is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 30 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.

A 3.00 kg box is moving to the right with speed 8.00 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface. At t = 0 a horizontal force is applied to the box. The force is directed to the left and has magnitude F(t)=( 6.00 N/s2 )t2
What distance does the box move from its position at t=0 before its speed is reduced to zero?
If the force continues to be applied, what is the velocity of the box at 3.00 s ?

Two penguins, Wheezy and Mumble, are racing down an icy slope into the water below. Wheezy has a mass of 22 kg. Mumble has a mass of 25 kg. The slope is angled at eight degrees to the horizontal. They both start from the same position at the same time, and slide down the icy slope entirely due to gravity alone. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.12 between the penguins and the ice. Who wins the race and what is the winner's acceleration when they reach the finish line (ie the water)?
