  1. A 5.3 kg mass and a 9.8 kg mass are tied to a light string and hung over a frictionless pulley. How fast is the heavier mass falling 0.91 seconds after they are released from rest?

    m/s

  2. A lady pulls a cart with a force of 83 N. Neglecting friction, if the cart changes from resting to a speed of 0.2 m/s in a distance of 0.0101 m, what is the total mass of the cart?

    kg

  3. A man is pulling a cart (total 5.9 kg) with a force of 822 N. Neglecting friction, how much time does it take to get the cart from rest up to 0.5 m/s?

    s

  4. A lady pulls a cart with a force of 1999 N. Neglecting friction, if the cart changes from resting to a speed of 1.9 m/s in a distance of 0.06375 m, what is the total mass of the cart?

    kg

  5. A 9.1 kg mass and a 10.6 kg mass are tied to a light string and hung over a frictionless pulley. What is their acceleration?

    m/s2

  6. A lady is pulling a cart (total 76 kg) with a force of 264 N. Neglecting friction, what is the acceleration of the cart?
