- Shawn (m = 45.0 kg) rides his skateboard at a local skate park. He starts from rest at the top of the track as seen in Figure P9.84 and begins a descent down the track, always maintaining contact with the surface. The mass of the skateboard is negligible, as is friction except where noted. a. What is Shawn’s speed when he reaches the bottom of the initial dip, 12.0 m below the starting point? b. He then ascends the other side of thedip to the top of a hill, 8.0 m above the ground. What is his speed when he reaches this point? c. As he begins to descend again, down a straight, 18.0-m-long slope, he slows his skateboard down by using friction on the tail of the board.

- n IT'S ARMAGEDDON! A Texas sized asteroid is headed for Earth! You've been hired by NASA to be part of a misfit team of deep-core drillers to save the planet! As the engineer (and most educated person) on the team, you've been tasked with doing the calculations to make sure the Earth will be saved. The plan is to land on the 6.1 x 10²1 kg asteroid traveling at 9830 m/s and detonate a nuclear bomb. The asteroid will break into two pieces of equal mass. One piece will fly off at an angle of 30° and speed 9700 m/s. What will be the speed and angle of the second piece? Scientists estimate that as long as the angle is greater than 15° we're all gonna be alright!
