A child is on a swing. An adult tied a rope to the seat of the swing and pulled the swing forward. That rope is now horizontal, and the ropes attached to the swing structure make an angle θ with the vertical, as shown. (Note: There are two ropes tied to the chair that go to the top of the swing structure, one on each side of the child. We just see one in the in the image since we are looking at a side view. ) The child has a mass m. The adult uses the rope to hold the child at rest. What is the tension in the horizontal rope, and what are the tensions in each of the ropes connecting the seat to the top of the swing structure? [Use the following values. θ = 50.0∘, m = 25.0 kg ]

A child's pogo stick (figure below) stores energy in a spring (k = 2.95×104 N/m). At position (A) (x1 = −0.100 m), the spring compression is a maximum and the child is momentarily at rest. At position (B) (x = 0), the spring is relaxed and the child is moving upward. At position C, the child is again momentarily at rest at the top of the jump. Assume that the combined mass of child and pogo stick is 28.0 kg. (a) Calculate the total energy of the system if both potential energies are zero at x = 0. J (b) Determine x2. m (c) Calculate the speed of the child at x = 0. m/s (d) Determine the value of x for which the kinetic energy of the system is a maximum. mm (e) Obtain the child's maximum upward speed. m/s

Two children, Raffil and John, sitting on sleds tied together with a rope, are being dragged across a frozen river by their lonely Siberian husky Rex attached with the hamess and rope as shown in the figure. The husky is pulling happily with a net horizontal force of 112 N from its harness. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleds and the ice is 0.08, the combined mass of Raffi and his sled is 42.0 kg, and the combined mass of John and his sled is 51.0 kg. Assume all forces are horizontal, and the two ropes and the harness are of negligible mass, and all ropes are tight. (i) What is the acceleration of Rex? (ii) What is the tension T in the rope connecting the two sleds? (iii) What is the tension in the rope connecting the sled of John and Rex? If this question cannot be answered, why? (iv) Will the husky be able to pull the sleds with the same magnitude of force from its harness if the frozen river starts to melt resulting in a slippery surface? Explain the reason of your answer.
