Robot No. 5 (mass 273kg) and Prisoner No. 6 (mass 66kg) stand on a frictionless ice rink, both holding a rope. The robot is at x = −3m and the prisoner is at x = 17m. The robot starts winding up the rope. Considering the two of them plus the rope as a system, there are no external horizontal forces on either of them. When the rope is fully wound, where do No. 5 and No. 6 meet?

A mass of 0.5 kg sits on a horizontal frictionless patch of ice. It is connected to a spring with a with a spring constant of k=5 N/m. The spring is initially relaxed. It is then pulled to the right and stretched by 0.1 meters. It is released afterwards to return to its equilibrium position at x=0 meters. "x" is the amount of displacement. Please use conservation of energy to find the velocity of the mass at 0.08 meters.

A 60 kg archer, standing on frictionless ice, shoots a 120 g arrow at a speed of 95 m/s. a) Does the bow exert a constant force or a variable force on the arrow? b) Is this situation considered an isolated system or a non-isolated system? What other forces would you include in a free-body diagram? Would these other forces contribute to the velocity of either the arrow or the archer? c) What pair of forces exist that causes the...
