A ship at sea is due into a port 500.0 km due south in two days. However, a severe storm comes in and blows it 100.0 km due east from its original position.
a) How far is the ship from its destination?
b) In what direction must it travel to reach its destination?
If you use a horizontal force of 30.0 N to slide a 12.0 kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?
A 225 kg crate is pushed horizontally with a force of 710 N. If the coefficient of friction is 0.20, calculate the acceleration of the crate.
An object in equilibrium has three forces exerted on it. A 33.0 N force acts at 90.0° from the x axis, and a 44.0 N force acts at 60.0° from the x axis. Both angles are measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis. What are the magnitude and the direction of the third force?
You accidentally throw your car keys horizontally at 8.0 m/s from a cliff 64 m high. How far from the base of the cliff should you look for the keys?
You took a running leap off a high-diving platform. You were running at 2.8 m/s and hit the water 2.6 s later.
a) How high was the platform?
b) How far from the edge of the platform did you hit the water? Assume your initial velocity is horizontal. Ignore air resistance.
