Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Kinetic Energy and Work: Problem 13

13 A luge and its rider, with a total mass of 85 kg, emerge from a downhill track onto a horizontal straight track with an initial speed of 37 m/s. If a force slows them to a stop at a constant rate of 2.0 m/sΒ², (a) what magnitude F is required for the force, (b) what distance d do they travel while slowing, and (c) what work W is done on them by the force? What are (d) F, (e) d, and (f) W if they, instead, slow at 4.0 m/sΒ²?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 13 A, 85 kg, 37 m, 2.0 m, 4.0 m
