A cyclist is coasting at 13 m/s when she starts down a 420 m long slope that is 30 m high. The cyclist and her bicycle have a combined mass of 70 kg. A steady 11 N drag force due to air resistance acts on her as she coasts all the way to the bottom.

What is her speed at the bottom of the slope?

A cyclist is coasting at 4.5m/s when she starts down a 3.5 degree, 180m long straight slope. The cyclist and her bicycle have a combined mass of 85kg. As she coasts down the slope, a steady 12N drag force due to resistance acts on her in the first half of the trip down. The drag force increases to 14N during the second half of the trip. What is her speed at the bottom of the slope?

A child slides down a snow‑covered slope on a sled. At the top of the slope, her mother gives her a push to start her off with a speed of 0.85 m/s. The frictional force acting on the sled is one‑fifth of the combined weight of the child and the sled. If she travels for a distance of 23.5 m and her speed at the bottom is 3.75 m/s, calculate the angle that the slope makes with the horizontal. slope...

A 79.0-kg skier starts from rest and slides down a 36.0-m frictionless slope that is inclined at an angle of 15.0° 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. Work done by gravity? Work done by normal force? (b) If the slope is not frictionless so that the skier has a final velocity of 4 m/s, calculate the work done by...

A small sports car and a pickup truck start coasting down a 12 m hill together, side by side. The mass of the sports car is 640 kg and the mass of the pickup truck is 1280 kg (twice the mass of the sports car). Assuming no friction or air resistance, what is the kinetic energy of each vehicle at the bottom of the hill? Give your answers in joules. HINT: How does the kinetic energy of a vehicle at...

A 30 kg object slides down a slope which is 60 m long and is at an angle of 20 above the horizontal. The slope is smooth, there is no friction. The object starts with zero speed. At the bottom, it slides into a horizontal spring, which it compresses by 0.2 m before it stops. The spring is initially uncompressed. Using potential energy, calculate the spring constant of the spring

A girl on a sled coasts down a hill. Her speed is 6.0 m/s when she reaches level ground at the bottom. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled's runners and the hard, icy snow is 0.052, and the girl and sled together weigh 688 N. How far does the sled travel on the level ground before coming to rest?

Jason takes off from rest down a 50 m tall, 10.0° degree slope on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust force of 280 N, directed so that the force pushes Jason forward along the slope. The combined mass of skis and Jason is 50.0 kg. Jason’s speed at the bottom of the hill is 40.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of the frictional force that must be acting on the skis?
