1) A basketball is
thrown into the basket. The ball leaves the player's hand at t = 0 and reaches the
basket at t = 3s. Which best represents the ball's kinetic energy as a function of
time?
2) Work is measured in
what unit?
a) Newtons
b) Joules
c) meters/second
d) Watts
3) What
is the minimum power developed by a 75 kg person who climbs a set of stairs 4.5 m high in
5.0 s?
4) A 3.5
kg projectile was launched vertically at 75 m/s. The projectile reached a maximum
height of 180 m. How much energy was lost to heart while the projectile was rising?
5) A 50
kg crate is pulled 40m along a horizontal floor by a constant force exerted by a person, Fp
= 100 N, which acts at a 37o angle above the horizontal. The floor exerts
a friction force Ff = 50 N. Determine:
- the work done by each force acting on the crate.
- the net work done on the crate.

6) A 5.20
kg block sliding at 9.40 m/s across a horizontal frictionless surface collides head on
with a stationary 8.60 kg block. The 5.20 kg block rebounds at 1.80 m/s. How
much kinetic energy is lost during the collision?
