A child on a sled reaches the bottom of a hill with a velocity of \( 10.0 \, \text{m/s} \) and travels \( 25.0 \, \text{m} \) along a horizontal straightaway to a stop. If the child and sled together have a mass of \( 60.0 \, \text{kg} \), what is the average retarding force on the sled on the horizontal straightaway?
When a fan is turned off, its angular speed decreases from \( 10 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) to \( 6.3 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) in \( 5.0 \) \( \text{s} \). What is the magnitude of the average angular acceleration of the fan?

A hypothetical planet has a radius \( 2.0 \) times that of Earth, but has the same mass. What is the acceleration due to gravity near its surface?
Two thin coins are made from identically the same metal, but one coin has triple the diameter of the other. What is the ratio of the moment of inertia of the large coin compared to the small coin? Take the axis of rotation to be perpendicular to the coin and through its center; assume that the coins have the same thickness. Hint: The moment of inertia of a solid disk about its center is \(\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\).
A golf club exerts an average horizontal force of \(1000 \, \text{N}\) on a \(0.045 \, \text{kg}\) golf ball that is initially at rest on the tee. The club is in contact with the ball for \(1.8 \, \text{milliseconds}\). What is the speed of the golf ball just as it leaves the tee?
A rocket is sent to shoot down an invading spacecraft that is hovering at an altitude of \( 1500 \, \text{m} \). The rocket is launched with an initial velocity of \( 180 \, \text{m/s} \). Find the following:
A car is safely negotiating an unbanked circular turn at a speed of 21 m/s. The road is dry, and the maximum static frictional force acts on the tires. Suddenly a wet patch in the road decreases the maximum static frictional force to one-third its dry road value. If the car is to continue safely around the curve, to what speed must the driver slow the car?
A kickball is rolled by the pitcher at a speed of 10 m/s and it is kicked by another student. The kickball deforms a little during the kick, and then rebounds with a velocity of 15 m/s as its shape restores to a perfect sphere. Select all that must be true about the kickball and the kicking foot system.
You kick a ball straight up. Compare the sign of the work done by gravity on the ball while it goes up with the sign of the work done by gravity while it goes down.

A person with a weight of \( 600 \) \( \text{N} \) stands on a scale in an elevator. What is the acceleration of the elevator when the scale reads \( 900 \) \( \text{N} \)?
The experimental diving rig is lowered from rest at the ocean’s surface and reaches a maximum depth of \(80\) \(\text{m}\). Initially it accelerates downward at a rate of \(0.10\) \(\text{m/s}^2\) until it reaches a speed of \(2.0\) \(\text{m/s}\), which then remains constant.

Determine the apparent weight a \( 500 \) \( \text{N} \) person will feel at the bottom of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) and at the top of the loop while traveling at a speed of \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \).
A projectile is launched at \( 25 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 37^{\circ} \). It lands on a platform that is \( 5.0 \) \( \text{m} \) above the launch height.
Two masses \(m_1\) and \(4m_1\) are on an incline. Both surfaces have the same coefficient of kinetic friction. Both objects start from rest at the same height. Which mass has the largest speed at the bottom?
Shown above are three masses of \(6 \, \text{kg}\), \(3 \, \text{kg}\), and \(1 \, \text{kg}\) (in order from left to right). You pull on the 1kg mass with a force \(F\) of \(15 \, \text{N}\) along a frictionless surface.
