object is equal to the change in the object’s kinetic
energy.

The force of kinetic friction is in the direction opposite d,
q = 180°. Because the sled comes to rest, the final
kinetic energy is zero.

4. Evaluate
According to Newton’s second law, the acceleration
of the sled is about -1 m/s2 and the time it takes the
sled to stop is about 2 s. Thus, the distance the sled
traveled in the given amount of time should be less
than the distance it would have traveled in the
absence of friction.
2.5 m < (2.2 m/s)(2 s) = 4.4 m

A 70.0 kg stuntman is attached to a bungee cord with
an unstretched length of 15.0 m. He jumps off a
bridge spanning a river from a height of 50.0 m.
When he finally stops, the cord has a stretched
length of 44.0 m. Treat the stuntman as a point mass,
and disregard the weight of the bungee cord.
Assuming the spring constant of the bungee cord is
71.8 N/m, what is the total potential energy relative to
the water when the man stops falling?

4. Evaluate
One way to evaluate the answer is to make an
order-of-magnitude estimate. The gravitational
potential energy is on the order of 102 kg  10
m/s2  10 m = 104 J. The elastic potential energy
is on the order of 1  102 N/m  102 m2 = 104 J.
Thus, the total potential energy should be on the
order of 2  104 J. This number is close to the
actual answer.

energy is the bottom of the slide. Because the child
ends at the zero level, the final gravitational potential
energy is zero.

The initial gravitational potential energy at the top of
the slide is
PEg,i = mghi = mgh
Because the child starts at rest, the initial kinetic
energy at the top is zero.
KEi = 0
Therefore, the final kinetic energy is as follows:

3. Calculate
Substitute values into the equations:
PEg,i = (25.0 kg)(9.81 m/s2)(3.00 m) = 736 J
KEf = (1/2)(25.0 kg)vf2
Now use the calculated quantities to evaluate the
final velocity.
MEi = MEf
PEi + KEi = PEf + KEf
736 J + 0 J = 0 J + (0.500)(25.0 kg)vf2
vf = 7.67 m/s

4. Evaluate
The expression for the square of the final speed can
be written as follows:
2mgh

vf 
 2gh
m
Notice that the masses cancel, so the final speed
does not depend on the mass of the child. This
result makes sense because the acceleration of an
object due to gravity does not depend on the mass
of the object.
