A 45 kg child slides down a straight frictionless water slide. The slide is 16 m long and set at angle of 28o above horizontal.1.Find the work done by gravity on the child.2.If the child started at rest at the top, what is the speed of the child at the bottom of the slide?
Concept - find the work done by gravity by
finding the height of the slide. Then use work energy theorem to
find the speed of the child at the bottom of the slide.***********************************************************************************************

A 52.3 kg child slides down a water slide with a velocity of 1.1 m/sec at the top. At the bottom of the slide, she is moving horizontally, y=1.5 meters above the water. She splashes into the water d=2 meters to the left of the bottom of the slide. a: Assuming potential energy to be zero at the water level, what is the mechanical energy of the child at the top of the slide? b: How high is the top...
A child whose weight is 267 N slides down a 6.10 m long slide that makes an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the slide and the child is 0.100. If the child starts at the top with a speed of 0.457 m/s, what is the child's speed at the bottom? (Ignore air resistance)
A child and sled with a combined mass of 52.0 kg slide down a frictionless slope. If the sled starts from rest and has a speed of 3.70 m/s at the bottom, what is the height of the hill? A child and sled with a combined mass of 2.0 kg slide down a frictionless slope. If the sled starts from rest and has a speed of 3.70 m/s at the bottom, what is the height of the hill? m
A 18 kg child slides down a 4.0 m-high playground slide. She starts from rest, and her speed at the bottom is 2.8 m/s. What is the change in the thermal energy of the slide and the seat of her pants?
A 40-kg child slides down a curved slide starting at the top with an initial speed of 4 m/s. (a) Suppose that the slide is frictionless. Determine the speed of the child when she is 3 m below her starting height. (b) Suppose that the slide has friction. Determine the speed of the child when she is 5 m below her starting height if she starts from rest and 300 J of thermal energy is dissipated during the motion.
A 29.00-kg child initially at rest slides down a playground slide from a height of 3.10 m above the bottom of the slide. If her speed at the bottom is 2.40 m/s, how much energy is lost due to friction?
a child of mass 25 kg sits at rest at the top of a frictionless slide 2.0m off the ground. He then slides down. what is his kinetic energy at the bottom of the slide?
a 31.7 kg child slides down a frictionless water slide at 53.2. How fast is she moving 3.45 s later?
Starting from rest at the top, a child slides down the water slide at a swimming pool and enters the water at a final speed of 4.65 m/s. At what final speed would the child enter the water if the water slide were twice as high? Ignore friction and resistance from the air and the water lubricating the slide.
30-kg child slides down a playground slide as shown below. At the bottom of the slide, the speed of the child is 1.0 m/s. How many joules of internal energy were gained by the child and slide along the way? 2.5 m 30°
