A soapbox derby race car starts at rest at the top of a track that has a vertical drop of 15 m. The car is to be stopped at the end of the track by colliding with and compressing a spring. In order to avoid injury to the driver, the spring must be compressed to 3.0 m before the car stops. What should be the force constant of this spring? Assume the mass of the car and driver is 113 kg.

A 1000 kg race car starts from rest and reaches a speed of 100 km/h in 20 s. What is the power delivered by the car’s engine? (2 points). A 1 kg mass is released from the top of a smooth slide of height 2m. At the bottom of the slide the mass slides on a horizontal surface and stops at a distance of 5 m. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the horizontal surface? (3.5 points). The...

A race car starts from rest on a circular track. The car increases its speed at a constant rate a; as it goes once around the track. Find the angle that the total acceleration of the car makes- with the radius connecting the center of the track and the car- at the moment the car completes the circle.

In the Soapbox Derby in (Figure 1), young participants build non-motorized cars with very low-friction wheels. Cars race by rolling down a hill. Assume that the track begins with a 47-ft-long (1 m = 3.28 ft) section tilted 16 ∘ below horizontal. What is the maximum possible acceleration of a car moving down this stretch of track? If a car starts from rest and undergoes this acceleration for the full l, what is its final speed in m/s?
A race car starts from rest on a circular track of radius 400 m. Its speed increases at the constant rate of 0.500 m/s
A race car starts from rest on a circular track of radius 400 m. Its speed increases at the constant rate of 0.500 m/s. At the point where the magnitudes of the radial and tangential accelerations are equal, determine (a) the speed of the race car, and (b) the elapsed time.
