A net horizontal force of 5000N is applied to a stalled car whose mass is 1500kg. What will be the car's speed after 10s?
A bicyclist can coast down a 8.18 degree hill at a constant speed of 5.55 km/h. If the force of air resistance is proportional to the speed v so that Fair = c v, calculate the average force (in N) that must be applied in order to descend the hill at 19.3 km/h. The mass of the cyclist plus bicycle is 78.6 kg.
As a protest against the umpire's calls, a baseball pitcher throws a ball straight up into the air at a speed of 19.5 m/s. In the process, he moves his hand through a distance of 1.55 m. If the ball has a mass of 0.150 kg, find the force he exerts on the ball to give it this upward speed.
