Two snowmobiles are both pulling with 400.0 N on a 1.00 x 102 kg sled on ice (no friction). One snowmobile pulls at a 20.0o angle to the left, the other pulls at 30.0o to the right of the same forward direction: y.

1.) Calculate the net force: Σ Fnet exerted on the sled. (magnitude and direction)

2.) What is the acceleration of the sled?

f the sled travels 2.00 km, calculate the work (Joules) was done by the snowmobiles (combined). (The force is in the same direction as the travel)

If the snowmobiles produce this force for 20.0 minutes, calculate the power (in Watts) expended by the snowmobiles (combined).

The diagram below is a top-down view of two children pulling a 11.1-kg sled along the snow. The first child exerts a force of F1 = 10 N at an angle θ1 = 45° counterclockwise from the positive x direction. The second child exerts a force of F2 = 8 N at an angle θ2 = 30° clockwise from the positive x direction.

A dog in a weight-pulling competition tugs a 50-kg sled a distance of 5 m across a snowy track. The dog pulls horizontally with a force of 350 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.05. (Draw yourself a free-body diagram on the sled). The next four questions have to do with this scenario. Determine the work done by the dog. I got the correct work (1750J) Add up the y-components, ΣFy, and determine...

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.90 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the horizontal plane about a frictionless axis perpendicular to the center of the disk. A 40.0 kg person, standing 1.75 m from the axis, begins to run on the disk in a circular path and has a tangential speed of 2.80 m/s relative to the ground. Find the resulting angular speed of the disk (in...
