14-2. For protection, the barrel barrier is placed in front of the bridge pier. If the relation between the force and deflection of the barrier is F= (90(10)x!/2) lb, where x is in ft, determine the car's maximum penetration in the barrier. The car has a weight of 4000 lb and it is traveling with a speed of 75 ft/s just before it hits the barrier. F (lb) F = 90(10)³ x'/2 x (ft)

A 250 kg roller coaster is at the top of a hill with a velocity of 5.60 m/s from a height of 70.0 m above the ground. A) Determine the velocity of the roller coaster at a height of 40.0 m further down the track, neglecting friction. [3] B) What reference point did you choose as zero height? Show how you could come up with the same answer to A if you chose another reference point for height.
Spring scales are often used in markets for weighing produce and simply consist of a spring connection to a gauge that displays how far the spring has stretched and correlates that to the weight of the produce. (a) What is the spring constant (k) for the spring in the scale if the spring stretches .96 cm for .5 kg of potatoes? Number N/m (b) What is the mass of a collection of potatoes if the spring stretches 2.8 cm? Number kg (c) How many cm apart are the quarter-kilogram marks on the scale? (Note: depending on your random values, this may be a much larger distance then you would expect) Number cm
