Answer the questions below by posting a response to the blog .
A hill has height h. A child on a sled (total mass m) slides down starting from rest at the top. Does the velocity at the bottom depend on the angle of the hill if:
a) it is icy and there is no friction?
b) there is friction (deep snow)?
Two identical arrows, one with twice the speed of the other, are fired into an identical target. Assuming the hay exerts a constant frictional force on the arrows, how much farther will the faster arrow penetrate the target?
Why is it easier to climb a mountain via a zigzag trail than climbing straight up?
