You are working for a shipping company. Your job is to stand at the bottom of a 8.0-m-long ramp that is inclined at 37∘ above the horizontal. You grab packages off a conveyor belt and propel them up the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the packages and the ramp is μk=0.30.

Your coworker is supposed to grab the packages as they arrive at the top of the ramp. But she misses one and it slides back down. What is its speed when it returns to you?

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Question: You are in a sled with total mass of 80.0 kg. The sled starts from rest 10.0 meters up a frictionless ramp inclined at 40.0 1.) Calculate the Gravitational Potential Energy (PEG) at the top of the ramp. 2.) The PEG has now been converted to Kinetic Energy at the bottom of the ramp. The sled skids on gravel with coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.875.

You have a summer job working at a company developing systems to safely lower large loads down ramps. Your team is investigating a magnetic system by modeling it in the laboratory. The safety system is a conducting bar that slides on two parallel conducting rails that run down the ramp. The bar is perpendicular to the rails and is in contact with them. At the bottom of the ramp, the two rails are connected together. The bar slides down the...

(Person pushing box up rough ramp) The conveyor belt broke! The unlucky FedEx employee must now push 100 boxes up a 5 meter-long (along the ramp) rough ramp that is inclined 15 degrees above the horizontal. The person pushes parallel to the ramp. Let's say each box has a mass of 50 [kg] and the coefficient of kinetic friction each box and the ramp is 0.15 a) If the employee is on a tight schedule and only has 6 minutes...

Imagine you are trying to make a ramp to move your trash cans. The 1830-NN trash cans travels with velocity of 1.8 m/sm/s at the top of a ramp which slopes downward at 22.0∘∘. The ramp applies a 515-NN kinetic friction force on each trash can, consider that the maximum static friction force would also be this number. Each trash can can compress a spring at the bottom of the ramp and will stop after traveling 5.0 mm along the...

Assume that the tennis ball leaves your hands a height h = 1.800 m from the ground and at a speed of v0 = 14.00 m/s and an angle of elevation of 51.03°, as shown in the sketch. Take the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system on the...
