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“. (2)

3 Two cars, A and B, are travelling along the outside lane
of a motorway at a speed of 30.0 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.

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
