Figure 7-42 shows a cold package of hot dogs sliding rightward across a frictionless floor through a distance d = 20.0 cm while three forces act on the package. Two of them are horizontal and have the magnitudes F1 = 5.00 N and F2 = 1.00 N; the third is angled down by θ = 60.0° and has the magnitude F3 = 4.00 N.(a) For the 20.0 cm displacement, what is the net work done on the package by the three applied forces, the gravitational force on the package, and the normal force on the package? (b) If the package has a mass of 2.0 kg and an initial kinetic energy of 0, what is its speed at the end of the displacement?

- An m=60 kg diver jumps off a diving board h=3 m above the water that acts like an ideal spring with k=1.2 kN/m after being bent a total of y=50 cm. How far below the water does the diver reach without swimming if the resistance force of the water is a constant R=30 N and they are at a θ=25° from the vertical angle? Ignore air resistance. A student, m=75 kg, is pushed by two springs, k1=1.5 N/m, k2=2.5 kN/m through a frictionless slope, h=10 m, until the θ=30° incline which has µk=0.15. How far, x, along the incline will the student go?arrow_forwardAnswer A and B for question 2 2.

The object slides from this position and it stops at a distance d from the bottom of the inclined plane along a rough horizontal surface with friction, as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction for the horizontal surface is 0.400. (a) What is the speed of the object at the bottom of the inclined plane? (b) At what horizontal distance d from the bottom of the inclined plane will this object stop? Use Work and Energy Principles to solve. Do not use Newton’s laws for constant acceleration: Zero credit if you do not use conservation of energy concepts.arrow_forward
- A sledgehammer of mass m = 1.9 kg falls freely vertically downward from a height of h = 2.5 m at an initial speed of v = 6.5 m/s before striking a partially buried piling. After the blow the piling has moved d = 0.075 m deeper. How much force, in newtons, was applied to the piling? Assume all the energy goes towards driving the piling into the ground, and the force of the sledgehammer is constant over the distance d that the piling is driven into the ground. Note that you can ignore the change in potential energy of the piling itself. Further, because d is so small compared to h, you can also ignore the change in potential energy of the hammer as well as it moves distance d.arrow_forwardA long ramp made of cast iron is sloped at a constant angle θθ = 52.0∘∘ above the horizontal. Small blocks, each with mass 0.42 kgkg but made of different materials, are released from rest at a vertical height h above the bottom of the ramp. In each case the coefficient of static friction is small enough that the blocks start to slide down the ramp as soon as they are released. You are asked to find h so that each block will have a speed of 4.00 m/sm/s when it reaches the bottom of the ramp. You are given these coefficients of sliding (kinetic) friction for different pairs of materials.
