Work-energy
practice
This includes a review of net force problems with friction on inclined planes as well as calculations of work and application of the work-energy theorem.
More net force practice These include a 1-dimensional problem (5-58), a 2-dimensional problem on a level surface (5-23), and a 2-dimensional problem on an incline (5-21).

Cannonball
problem
This was a problem on last year's test. Solve it on your own and then check with the key.
Projectile
Velocity
This was also a problem on last year's test. We recommend solving the problem before checking the solution.
Graphing
