In an exciting game, a baseball player manages to safely slide into second base. The mass of the baseball player is 88.9 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the ground and the player is 0.53. (a) Find the magnitude of the frictional force in newtons. N (b) It takes the player 1.7 s to come to rest. What was his initial velocity (in m/s)

Asolid round steel rod 6.25 mm in diameter and 375 mm long is rigidly bonded to the end of solid square brass rod 25 mm on a side and 300 mm long. the geometric axes of the bare are along the same line. an axial tensile force of 5.4 kn is applied at the extreme ends of the assembly. for steel e = 200 gpa and for brass e = 90 gpa. determine the total elongation for the assembly.
