1. You have just purchased a new skateboard and are eager to try it out. It is a very
Special model, and rolls with absolutely no [rietion. You are initially on horizontal
ground, but want to roll up a hill which has a height of 3.1 m. What is the minimum
initial speed you must have in order to make it to the top? Assume that you coast all
the way to the top, and that the kinetic energy of rotation of the wheels is negligible.

3. Consider the act of hitting a serve in tennis. The ball is struck by a racket, and the
two ave mi cuntact for a time? = 0.010 5. If the force of the racket on the ball is a
constant 130 § while they are in contact, find the speed of ihe bal] when it leaves the
racket. Assume that the initial speed is zero, The mass of the ball is 0.15 kg.

Two cailroad cars are rolling in the same direction along the same track. One (of mass
4000 kg} has an injtial speed of 10.0 m/s, and is catching up to the other one {of mass
11000 kg} which is imitially moving at £.0 m/s. They eventually make contact, and
then stick together, What is their speed afler they come togetlier?
