Gayle runs at a speed of 4.32 m/s and dives on a sled, which is initially at rest on the top of a frictionless snow-covered hill. After she has descended a vertical distance of 5.26 m, her brother, who is initially at rest, hops on her back and together they continue down the hill. What is their speed at the bottom of the hill if the total vertical drop is 15.0 m? Gayle's mass is 45.4 kg, the sled has a mass of 5.30 kg and her brother has a mass of 26.0 kg.

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?

Lola's kids are riding around in their slelds. Greg hops in his sled and goes down a snow bank. He slides down the hill and continues moving on a horizontal surface at the bottom of the hill. That's where he finds Marg, who is in her sled at rest, but attached to a spring that is also attached to a wall. The spring compresses after the Greg/sled combo hits the Marg/sled combo at 15m/s. The Greg/sled combo and Marg/sled combo...

An exploding cannonball is initially launched at a speed of 75.0 m/s at an angle of 30.0 ◦ above the horizontal. At its highest point, the cannonball explodes into three pieces. The first piece, with a mass of 2.00 kg, heads straight upward at a speed of 15.0 m/s immediately after the explosion. The second piece, with mass of 2.50 kg, initially moves in the direction 15.0 ◦ above the horizontal immediately after the explosion. The third piece, with a...
