1. Tim and Carlos are building a ramp for performing skateboard stunts, as shown in the accompanying diagram. The ramp is 12.6 m long and 4.2 m high. What is the measure of the
angle, x, that the ramp makes with the ground, to the nearest whole number of a degree? *
12.6m
4.2m

It is may 5 and you are somewhere in the northern hemisphere. if you determine that the noon sun is 51 degrees above your southern horizon, what is the latitude of your location

As you are trying to move a heavy box of mass m, you realize that it is too heavy for you to lift by yourself. there is no one around to , so you attach an ideal pulley to the box and a massless rope to the ceiling, which you wrap around the pulley. you pull up on the rope to lift the box. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity and neglect friction forces. once you have pulled hard enough to start the box moving upward, what is the magnitude f of the upward force you must apply to the rope to start raising the box with constant velocity? express the magnitude of the force in terms of m, the mass of the box.

If a hiker that weighs 600 newtons climbs a 50 meter hill, how much gravitational potential energy has the hiker gained?
