A small girl is skating around on an ice rink. Her mass is 30 kg, and her speed is 4.0 m/s. She sees a 50 kg sled at rest on the rink that was left there by a careless worker, and she decides to jump onto the sled. Assume no friction between the sled and the ice. a. Find the child-sled system’s speed immediately after the child jumps onto the sled. b. Find the child-sled system’s kinetic energy immediately after...

A girl of mass, m = 40 kg has osteoporosis which weakens her bones. From a kneeling position, she topples forward onto her elbows with her upper arms extended vertically downwards on impact with the ground. In falling forward, her centre of mass lowers by a height, h = 50 cm and she absorbs all of her kinetic energy from her fall into her two humerus bones (one bone in each upper arm). Determine an equation for the stress in...

6. A motor car, of a total mass 1400 kg, running in top gear at 55 km/h, passes on to a rsing gradient of 1 in 20 at that speed. The road and other resistances may be taken as constant at 270 N/t. With condition unchanged, the speed falls uniformly to 40 km/h in a distance of 360 m. An intermediate gear is then engaged for which the speed ratio between the engine and the road wheels is 9:1 and...

Two friends Colby [mass mC = 34 kg] and Charlie [mass mCh = 42 kg] are avid swimmers. Colby is a master swimmer, while Charlie only swims recreationally. They both start on one side of pool (x = 0) at the same time (t = 0). The pool is separated into lanes along the “long course” so that the other end is at x = 50 m. Colby swims 2,500 m in 55 minutes; we assume that Colby and Charlie...

A sled and rider have a total mass of 49.6 kg. They are on a snowy hill accelerating at 0.8g. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.22. What is the angle of the hill's slope measured upward from the horizontal? You may find a spreadsheet program helpful in answering this question.

A gymnast with mass m1 = 42 kg is on a balance beam that sits on (but is not attached to) two supports. The beam has a mass m2 = 112 kg and length L = 5 m. Each support is 1/3 of the way from each end. Initially the gymnast stands at the left end of the beam. 1) What is the force the left support exerts on the beam? N   2) What is the force the right support...

A jumper with a mass of 90 kg is held at rest at the top of a 100 m high ramp. The jumper is then released to water. (The gravitational field strength is 9.8 m/s2 ) Calculate the change in gravitational potential energy of the jumper when he reaches the ground (the point Y) in kilojoule. How would you calculate the magnitude of kinetic energy of the jumper at point Y? (Assume no energy is transferred or lost during). A...

A bicycle wheel has a diameter of 63.0 cm and a mass of 1.74 kg. Assume that the wheel is a hoop with all of the mass concentrated on the outside radius. The bicycle is placed on a stationary stand and a resistive force of 117 N is applied tangent to the rim of the tire. (a) What force must be applied by a chain passing over a 8.99-cm-diameter sprocket in order to give the wheel an acceleration of 4.49...
