17. A child decides to take her cat on a walk, but the cat does not cooperate. The child pulls on the 2.5 kg cat with force of 20 N in a direction that is 30 degrees above horizontal, and the cat resists being pulled forward with a horizontal force of 15 N. What is the acceleration of the cat? Your answer: O 0,9 m/s2 O 2 m/s2 о 13 m/s? O 17 m/s?

Problem 4: Speed deamplifier. In the figure above on the right, block 1 of mass m1 slides along an x-axis on a frictionless floor at speed 4 m/sec.Then it undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 2 of mass m2 = 2m1. Next, block 2 undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 3 of mass mz = 4m1. What then is the speed of block 3? Answer: 16 m/sec or 1.78 m/sec.
