One great form of athletic competition for bulldogs, American pit bull terriers, huskies, and many other breeds is the weight pull. Many of these dogs can pull weights two orders of magnitude greater than their own weight! Railsplitter, an American pit bull terrier, can pull a sled that has a total weight of 2215 lb along a horizontal surface. Suppose he pulls with a horizontal force of 3.50 103 N while friction is also working against the sled. If the magnitude of the net acceleration of the sled is 0.152 m/s2, find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction, k, between the sled and the pulling surface. (The sled is normally on a set of rails.)
A cart is set rolling across a level table, at the same speed on every trial. If it runs into a patch of sand, the cart exerts on the sand an average horizontal force of 6 N and travels a distance of 6 cm through the sand as it comes to a stop. It instead the cart runs into a patch of gravel on which the can exerts an average horizontal force of 9 N, how far into the gravel will the cart roll before stopping? (a) 9 cm (b) 6 cm (c) 4 cm (d) 3 cm (e) none of those answers

To get in shape, you head to the local gym to exercise by lifting weights. Using a lat machine (Fig. P5.48), you notice that the wire connected to the bar is run around three different pulleys and is connected to a vertical stack of weights on the other end. The weights move up and down as you pull down on the bar. Suppose you set the machine so that the weight to be lifted is 120.0 lb. When you pull down on the bar, exerting a constant force, the acceleration experienced by the weights is 0.250 m/s2. What tension must exist in the wire connecting the bar and weights under these conditions? Assume the pulleys are massless and frictionless. FIGURE P5.48
A baseball catcher is performing a stunt for a television commercial. He will catch a baseball (mass 145 g) dropped from a height of 60.0 m above his glove. His glove stops the ball in 0.0100 s. What is the force exerted by his glove on the ball?
Review. A force platform is a tool used to analyze the performance of athletes by measuring the vertical force the athlete exerts on the ground as a function of time. Starting from rest, a 65.0-kg athlete jumps down onto the platform from a height of 0.600 m. While she is in contact with the platform during the time interval 0t 0.800 s, the force she exerts on it is described by the function F = 9 200t 11 500 t2 where F is in newtons and t is in seconds. (a) What impulse did the athlete receive from the platform? (b) With what speed did she reach the platform? (c) With what speed did she leave it? (d) To what height did she jump upon leaving the platform?
A particle moves in a medium under the influence of a retarding force equal to mk(υ3+ a2υ), where k and a are constants. Show that for any value of the initial speed the particle will never move a distance greater than π/2kaand that the particle comes to rest only for t → ∞.
Twenty people participate in a tug-of-war. The two teams of ten people are so evenly matched that neither team wins. After the game they notice that a car is stuck in the mud. They attach the tug-of-war rope to the bumper of the car, and all the people pull on the rope. The heavy car has just moved a couple of decimeters when the rope breaks. Why did the rope break in this situation when it did not break when the same twenty people pulled on it in a tug-of-war?

Your answer is partially correct. A 19-kg sled is being pulled along the horizontal snow-covered ground by a horizontal force of 21 N. Starting from rest, the sled attains a speed of 1.8 m/s in 8.1 m. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the runners of the sled and the snow. Number 0.09 Units No units
