b. How much power is exerted by the brakes if it takes 30s to stop? (30,000W)

4. You set up a stunt where you drive your car at 55m/s at a suspended rope with a magnet on the end that will
grab your car and allow it to swing freely upward. How high will your car swing? The rope and magnet are
massless. (150m) Video: https://www.educreations.com/lesson/view/energy-4/16420622/

5. You hit a ball at 54m/s at 600 off the horizontal. Assume the ball left at ground level. It travels into the stands
that are 112m off the ground. How fast does the ball hit the seats? (27m/s) Video:
