(non calculus based physics) Question 1 An Olympic weight lifter lifts an 1800 N set of weights from the ground to a vertical distance of 2.20 m above his head. Assuming he moves the weights at constant speed, how much work does the weight lifter do? Question 2 A 4.5 kg trunk, initially at rest, takes 2.0 s to slide 2.8 m down a rough 25° slope. Calculate: the work performed by the force of gravity. the amount of mechanical...

A box is placed at the top of a ramp and begins to slide. The angles of the ramp is 30 degrees. The ramp is 40 meters long. If the box reaches a speed of 4 m/s at the bottom of the ramp, what is the coefficient of friction between the box and the ramp? Assume the initial velocity of the box is zero.

A baseball player is approaching home plate with a speed of 5.8m/s when he decides to slide
A baseball player is approaching home plate with a speed of 5.8m/s when he decides to slide. He slides for 1.1s, just reaching the plate safe. What is the magnitude and direction of the player's acceleration? How far did he slide?His magnitude of acceleration is5.8/1.1= 5.3 m/s^2How far did he slide? I'm guessing you calculate x = 1/2a*t^2 which equals 6.4mI don't know how to find the direction since no direction is really given. Also correct me if I'm wrong...

A 50 kg skier starting from rest wants to jump a ravine. He begins 19 m from the edge of the cliff, on a 30 degree down slope (with the horizontal). If the lip on the far side of the ravine is 14.26 m below the upper edge, and the ravine width is 10.35 m, with how much constant force would he need to push to get up to the speed needed to make it across? Also note the coefficient...
