A truck with a mass of 9000 kg is traveling at a speed of 105 km/hr down a mountain road. The brakes fail and the driver uses a runaway truck ramp with a 26% grade to stop. How far, in meters, will the truck travel up the ramp? Neglect friction.
A 0.5 kg block rests on a horizontal surface. The block is pushed against the spring, compressing the spring by 10.0 cm. The block is then released. The spring constant is 500 N/m. Find the max distance, d, the block travels up the ramp, inclined at 30°. How fast is the block going when it is halfway up the ramp? Neglect friction.
