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?

A disk of radius \( R = 0.5 \) \( \text{cm} \) rests on a flat, horizontal surface such that frictional forces are considered to be negligible. Three forces of unknown magnitude are exerted on the edge of the disk, as shown in the figure. Which of the following lists the essential measuring devices that, when used together, are needed to determine the change in angular momentum of the disk after a known time of \( 5.0 \) \( \text{s} \)?

You pull a box with a constant force across a frictionless table using an attached rope held horizontally. If you now pull the rope with the same force at an angle to the horizontal (with the box remaining flat on the table). Does the acceleration of the box increase, decrease, or remain the same if the rope is pulled at an angle? Explain.
