a 70 kg skier is being towed on a rope behind a 450 kg snowmobile on a smooth, snow covered surface at 14 m/s when the snowmobile hits a patch of muddy ground that brings it to a hlat in 10m

What is the average acceleration of the center of mass of the skier-snowmobile system?

Kristie is a 60 kg skier. At the start of a ski-slope that is at 30o to the horizontal, she crouches into a tuck. The surface is very icy, so that there is no friction between her skies and the ice. a) If Kristie starts from rest, what is her speed after travelling a distance 80 m on the ice? b) Snow condition changes at the end of ice path so that Kristie continues down the slope with a constant...

The 1.0 kg block in the figure is tied to the wall with a rope. It sits on top of the 2.0 kg block. The lower block is pulled to the right with a tension force of 20 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction at both the lower and upper surfaces of the 2.0 kg block is μk = 0.43. What is the tension in the rope holding the 1.0 kg block to the wall? What is the acceleration of...

Two masses, 4.0 kg and 6.0 kg, are connected by a "massless" rope over a "frictionless" pulley as pictured in the diagram. The ramp is inclined at 30.0 degrees and the coefficient of kinetic friction on the ramp is 0.18. a) determine acceleration of the system once it begins to slide b) determine tension in the rope.

A skier (m = 60 kg) initially at rest skis down a (frictionless) hill from an altitude of 75 m. When she reaches the bottom (a flat horizontal surface with µk = 0.2) she slows down until she comes to a stop. (a) What is her speed when she reaches the bottom of the hill? (b) Over what distance at the bottom does she come to a stop?

5: A skier, m = 65 kg, glides on a perfect hill, 10 m high, no friction. However, at the bottom is a spring, k = 1500 N/m , system to stop the skier. A silly technique I will grant you. The spring is not perfect, it loses 800 J of energy every time the spring fully compresses or extends. Now we will have to assume the spring never extends past its equilibrium position. A: What is the speed of...

A box of mass m = 10.0 kg is attached to a rope. The other end of the rope is wrapped around a pulley with a radius of 15.0 cm. When you release the box, it begins to fall and the rope around the pulley begins to unwind, causing the pulley to rotate. As the box falls, the rope does not slip as it unwinds from the pulley. If the box is traveling at a speed of 2.50 m/s after...
