1. A skier of mass 80 kg starts from rest and slides down a frictionless slope of length 35 m that is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal. Ignore air resistance. a. Calculate the work done by gravity on the skier, and the work done by the normal force on the skier. b. If the slope is not frictionless so that the skier has a final velocity of 25 m/s, calculate the work done by gravity,...

A box of mass m1 = 2.0 kg starts from rest and slides down the frictionless incline. At point A, the box encounters a (massless) spring of spring constant k. It compresses the spring a distance x = 0.25 m to point B where the speed of the box is 4.4 m/s. The first box is then removed and a second box of mass m2 = 3.0 kg is placed on the same incline at the same initial point and...

A 4.5 kg box slides down a 4.2-m -high frictionless hill, starting from rest, across a 2.3-m -wide horizontal surface, then hits a horizontal spring with spring constant 480 N/m . The other end of the spring is anchored against a wall. The ground under the spring is frictionless, but the 2.3-m-long horizontal surface is rough. The coefficient of kinetic friction of the box on this surface is 0.26. What is the speed of the box just before hitting the...
