A 84.4 kg climber is scaling the vertical wall. His safety rope is made of a material that behaves like a spring  that has a spring constant of 1.34 x 103 N/m. He accidentally slips and falls 0.627 m before the rope runs out of slack. How much is the rope stretched when it breaks his fall and momentarily brings him to rest?

A uniform solid cylinder of mass [katex] M [/katex] and radius [katex] R [/katex] is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A massless string is attached to the cylinder and is wrapped around it. The string is then pulled with a constant force [katex] F [/katex] , causing the cylinder to rotate about its center of mass. After the cylinder has rotated through an angle [katex] \theta [/katex], what is the kinetic energy of the cylinder in terms of [katex] F [/katex] and [katex] \theta [/katex]?
