Chapter 6, Problem 6.22P
A child lying on her back experiences 55.0 N tension in the muscles on both sides of her neck when she raises her head to look past her toes. Later, sliding feet first down a water slide at terminal speed 5.70 m/s and riding high on the outside wall of a horizontal curve of radius 2.40 m, she raises her head again to look forward past her toes. Find the tension in the muscles on both sides of her neck while she is sliding.

1. A 6.25kg block is sent up a ramp inclined at an angle θ=33.5°from the horizontal. It is given an initial velocity v0=15.0m/sup the ramp. Between the block and the ramp, the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk=0.397and the coefficient of static friction is μs=0.712.How far up the ramp in the direction along the ramp does the block go before it comes to a stop?
To assess a patient who is suspected of having heart disease, the physician must examine the cardiac function when (a) the patient is at rest with a heart beating at a normal pace, and (b) when under stress, for example, after exercise. To simulate the conditions of stress, the patient exercises by walking a treadmill to increase heart beat and sustain high levels of cardiac stress. Suppose a 50 kg patient exercises on the treadmill, angled at 30◦ from the ground, exerting a constant force of 500 N up the slope of the treadmill while running a constant velocity of 4 m/s along the treadmill for 5 minutes. The coefficient of friction of the treadmill is µs = 0.45. Determine the work done by the patient.
A string under tension of 50.0 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.5 m at a speed of 20.4 m/s on a frictionless table. The string passes through a small hole in the table at the center of this circle. As the string is pulled in, the speed of the rock increases. When the string is 1.00 m long and the speed is 51.0 m/s, the string breaks. What is the breaking strength, in Newtons, of the string?
