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...

Th figure below shows a mass m=1.0 kg which is initially moving with speed v=6.8 m/s at the top of a frictionless hill of height h=4.4 m. It slides down the hill until it encounters a flat section with coefficient of kinetic friction µk=0.8. Find the distance D the object travels before coming to a stop.

A frictionless sphere of mass 10.0 kg is moving to the left at 5.00 m/s. It goes up a slight frictionless incline (my simulation has a height of 5.00 m and a horizontal length of 130.0 m). The mass of the incline is 15.0 kg and both objects are on a frictionless surface. The incline is initially at rest. Determine: a) The max vertical displacement reached by the sphere, and the velocities of the sphere and the incline at that...
