A van stops to pick up 3 cats from the side of the road. It's acceleration is -5m/s/s. The van was traveling at 50 m/s. how long did it take the van to stop

Your pendulum clock which advances 1.0 s for every complete oscillation of the pendulum is running perfectly on earth at a site where the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s2. you send the clock to a location on the moon where the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is 1.65 m/s2.

Two friends are having a conversation. anna says a satellite in orbit is in freefall because the satellite keeps falling toward earth. tom says a satellite in orbit is not in freefall because the acceleration due to gravity is not 9.80 m/2 . who do you agree with and why?

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 710 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 23° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.19. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. a) what is the block's initial mechanical energy? b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
