An ice sled powered by a rocket engine starts from rest on a large frozen lake and accelerates at \( +13.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). At \( t_1 \), the rocket engine is shut down and the sled moves with constant velocity \( v \) until \( t_2 \). The total distance traveled by the sled is \( 5.30 \times 10^3 \, \text{m} \) and the total time is \( 90.0 \, \text{s} \).

The driver of a car traveling at \( 30.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \) applies the brakes and undergoes a constant negative acceleration of \( 2.00 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). How many revolutions does each tire make before the car comes to a stop, assuming that the car does not skid and that the tires have radii of \( 0.300 \) \( \text{m} \)?

MCQ

A theme park ride consists of a large vertical wheel of radius \( R \) that rotates counterclockwise on a horizontal axle through its center. The cars on the wheel move at a constant speed \( v \). Points \( A \) and \( D \) represent the position of a car at the highest and lowest point of the ride, respectively. While passing point \( A \), a student releases a small rock of mass \( m \), which falls to the ground without hitting anything. Which of the following best represents the kinetic energy of the rock when it is at the same height as point \( D \)?
