A box, of mass 8 kg, is on a rough horizontal surface.
A string attached to the box is used to pull it along the surface.
The string is inclined at an angle of 40° above the horizontal.
The tension in the string is 50 newtons.
As the box moves a distance of x metres, its speed increases from 2ms1 to 5ms-1
The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface is 0.4
By using an energy method, find x.

We have a Cavendish balance set up with two spheres (one small and one large) that are five centimeters apart of masses m = 1 g and m0 = 500 m, respectively. Suppose these design is placed at a point in space far removed from all other bodies. ,→ What is the acceleration a of the body m, and the acceleration a 0 of the body m0 ? [15] ,→ Is this a constant acceleration problem? Explain why or why not!

A block of mass m (initially at rest) is dropped from a height h landing onto a spring with spring/force constant k. Determine the maximum distance y that the spring will be compressed?
A crane boom 10 m long, weighing 870 N and having its center of gravity 3m from the bottom, is hinged at the lower end and makes an angle of 30° with the vertical. It is held in position by a horizontal cable fastened at the upper end. The boom supports a 4350-N load at its upper end. Find the tension in the cable.
