You push a box out of a carpeted room and along a hallway with a waxed linoleum floor. While pushing the crate 2 mout of the room you exert a force of; while pushing italong the hallway you exert a force of. To slow it down you exert a force ofthrough a distance of, opposite to the motion. How much work do you do in all?
Answer
A space probe in outer space has a mass of , and it is traveling at a speed of. When it is at locationit begins firing two booster rockets. The rockets exert constant forces ofand, respectively. The rockets fire until the spacecraft reaches location. Now what is its speed? There is negligible mass loss due to the rocket exhaust.

A ball rolls off a -high cliff, and lands from the base of the cliff. Express the displacement and the gravitational force in terms of vectors and calculate the work done by the gravitational force. Note that the gravitational force is , where g is a positive number.
The escape speed from a very small asteroid is only 24 m/s. If you throw a rock away from the asteroid at a speed of 35 m/s, what will be its final speed?
