A person on a sled coasts down a hill and then goes over a slight rise with speed 2.7 m/s. The top of this rise can be modeled as a circle of radius 4.1 m
The sled and occupant have a combined mass of 110 kg. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the snow and the sled is 0.10, what friction force is exerted on the sled by the snow as the sled goes over the top of the rise? What will be an ideal response?

A ball is tied to the end of an 80.0-cm string and swings in a vertical circle about a fixed center under the influence of gravity. The speed of the mass at the bottom of the swing is 6.00 m/s. Which of the following statements is true?
A) The ball does not have enough energy to reach the top of the circle. B) The ball has enough energy to reach the top of the circle but the string becomes slack before it can reach that point. C) The ball has enough energy to continue revolving in a complete vertical circle. D) This question cannot be answered without knowing the mass of the ball. E) This question cannot be answered without knowing the tension in the string.
