1. A man is pushing a shopping wolley at a speed of 1.10 ms along a horizontal surface. There is a constant frictional force opposing the motion. The ‘man stops suddenly, letting go of the trolley, which rolls on for a distance of 1.96 m before coming ‘to rest, Show that the deceleration of the trolley is approximately 0.3 ms @) ‘The total mass of the trolley and its contents is 28.0 kg. Calculate the fitional force opposing its motion (2) CCalelate the power needed to push the trolley at « steady speed of 1.10 ms“.

They are a distance d apart “The driver of car A sees a slower vehicle move out in front of him, and brakes hard until is speed has fallen to 22.0 ms", The driver of car B sees car A brake and, after 1 reaction time of 0.900, brakes with the seme constant deceleration as A.

In what direction does this force act? o ‘There is ¢ force which forms a Newton's third law pair with this force on the Moon. ‘On what body does this force act and in what direction? ic) (Total 6 marks) 5. The diagram shows part of a roller coaster ride. In practice, friction and air sesistance will have a significant effect on the motion of the vehicle, but you should ignore them throughout this question. ‘The vehicle starts from rest at A and is hauled up to B by a motor, It takes 15.0 s to reach B, at which point its speed is negligible. Copy and complete ‘the box in the diagram below, which expresses the conservation of energy for the journey from A to B. 0 Useful work done by motor ‘The mass of the vehicle and the passengers is 3400 kg. Calculate @ The useful work done by the motor.
