1. Explain, with the aid of a force diagram, why the magnitude of the frictional force acting on Stephi is 490 newtons. 4 In this question use \(g = 9.8 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 2 }\)

5 A car of mass 1000 kg has a maximum speed of \(40 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) when travelling on a straight horizontal race track. The maximum power output of the car's engine is 48 kW
The total resistance force experienced by the car can be modelled as being proportional to the car's speed. Find the maximum possible acceleration of the car when it is travelling at \(25 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) on the straight horizontal race track. Fully justify your answer.

6 In this question use \(g = 9.8 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 2 }\) Martin, who is of mass 40 kg , is using a slide.
The slide is made of two straight sections \(A B\) and \(B C\).
The section \(A B\) has length 15 metres and is at an angle of \(50 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal.
The section \(B C\) has length 2 metres and is horizontal.

1. Find the energy lost as Martin slides from \(A\) to \(B\).
   6
2. Assume that a resistance force of constant magnitude acts on Martin while he is moving on the slide. 6
3. 1. Show that the magnitude of this resistance force is approximately 270 N
      6
4. (ii) Determine if Martin reaches the point \(C\).

7 Two smooth spheres, \(P\) and \(Q\), of equal radius are free to move on a smooth horizontal surface. The masses of \(P\) and \(Q\) are \(3 m\) and \(m\) respectively.
\(P\) is set in motion with speed \(u\) directly towards \(Q\), which is initially at rest.
\(P\) subsequently collides with \(Q\).

The coefficient of restitution between the spheres is \(e\).

1. 1. Show that $$v = \frac { u ( 3 - e ) } { 4 }$$ 7
2. (ii) Find \(w\), in terms of \(e\) and \(u\), simplifying your answer.

3. Deduce that $$\frac { u } { 2 } \leq v \leq \frac { 3 u } { 4 }$$ 7
4. 1. Find, in terms of \(m\) and \(u\), the maximum magnitude of the impulse that \(P\) exerts on \(Q\).

5. (ii) Describe the impulse that \(Q\) exerts on \(P\).
