A boulder is raised above the ground so that its potential energy is \(550 \, \text{J}\). Then it is dropped. Assuming \(92 \, \text{J}\) of energy was lost to air resistance, what is the kinetic energy of the boulder just before it hits the ground?
An object is released from rest near the surface of a planet. The velocity of the object as a function of time is expressed in the following equation. \( v_y = (-3) \, \text{m/s}^2 \, t \) All frictional forces are considered to be negligible. What distance does the object fall \( 10 \) \( \text{s} \) after it is released from rest?
A communications satellite orbits the Earth at an altitude of \(35{,}000 \, \text{km}\) above the Earth’s surface. Take the mass of Earth to be \(6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}\) and the radius of Earth to be \(6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}\). What is the satellite’s velocity?
A uniform solid cylinder of mass \( M \) and radius \( R \) 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 \( F \) , causing the cylinder to rotate about its center of mass. After the cylinder has rotated through an angle \( \theta \), what is the kinetic energy of the cylinder in terms of \( F \) and \( \theta \)?
A person shoots a basketball with a speed of \( 12 \, \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( 35^\circ \) above the horizontal. If the person is \( 2.4 \, \text{m} \) tall and the hoop is \( 3.05 \, \text{m} \) above the ground, how far back must the person stand in order to make the shot?

A crate rests on a horizontal surface and a woman pulls on it with a 10-N force. No matter what the orientation of the force, the crate does not move. From least to greatest, rank the normal force on the crate.
A \(25.0 \, \text{kg}\) box is released on a \(23.5^\circ\) incline and accelerates down the incline at \(0.35 \, \text{m/s}^2\). Find the friction force impeding its motion. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
A skater glides across the ice at a constant \( 6 \) \( \text{m/s} \). After \( 4 \) \( \text{s} \), friction gradually slows them down until they come to rest in \( 6 \) \( \text{s} \). They pause for \( 2 \) \( \text{s} \), then push off in the opposite direction, steadily gaining speed for \( 5 \) \( \text{s} \). Draw the velocity vs. time graph.
A solid sphere is rotating about an axis through its center at a constant rotation rate. Another hollow sphere of the same mass and radius is rotating about its axis through the center at the same rotation rate. Which sphere has a greater rotational kinetic energy?
By pressing a painting of mass \( 2.00 \) \( \text{kg} \) against a wall, a man is trying to determine whether it is appropriately positioned. The wall is perpendicular to the pushing force. The coefficient of static friction between the image and the wall is \( 0.660 \). What is the bare minimum pushing force that must be applied?
