2. You are at the wheel of a 1200-kg car traveling east through an intersection when a 3000-kg truck traveling north through the intersection crashes into your car. Your car and the truck remain stuck together after impact. The driver of the truck claims you were at fault because you were speeding. You look for evidence to disprove this claim. There are no skid marks neither you nor the truck driver saw the accident coming and braked hard. The posted speed limit is 80 km/h. The speedometer of the truck was stuck at 50 km/h. The wreck initially skidded from the impact zone at an angle of59° north of east. Does this evidence support or undermine the claim that you were speeding? (75.1 km/h)

3. In a baseball game, a 200 - g ball moving at 13.2 m/s is hit by a bat. After the impact, the ball moves in the opposite direction with a velocity of 17.6 m/s. If the force exerted on the ball by the batter is 670 N, how long is the time of contact?
5. A 1000-kg car traveling west at 30 m/s collides with a 1000-kg truck traveling south at 20 m/s. The occupants, wearing seat belts, are uninjured, but the two vehicles move away from the impact point as one. The insurance adjustor asks you to find the velocity of the wreckage just after impact. What is your answer?

4. A fisherman in a boat catches a shark with a harpoon. The shark struggles for a while and then becomes limp when at a distance of 300 m from the boat. The fisherman pulls the shark all the way to the boat by the rope attached to the harpoon. During this operation, the boat (initially at rest) moves 45 m in the direction of the shark. The mass of the boat is 5400 kg. What is the mass of the shark? Pretend that the water exerts no friction. (Hint: Friction is ignored, so there are no external forces, and the center of mass of the system (the shark and boat) should not move at all.) A) 953 kg B) 477 kg C) 318 kg from the left and of
Cray-Zee is speeding along at 26 m/s as she approaches the level section of track near the loading dock of the Whizzer roller coaster ride. A braking system abruptly brings the 392-kg car (rider mas included) to a speed of 3 m/s over a distance of 5.7 meters Determine the magnitude (positive answer) of the braking force applied to Cray-Zee's car. Answer: N
A 980-kg sports car collides into the rear end of a 2500-kgkg SUV stopped at a red light. The bumpers lock, the brakes are locked, and the two cars skid forward 2.9 mm before stopping. The police officer, estimating the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and road to be 0.80, calculates the speed of the sports car at impact. Question: What was the speed sports car at impact? v=??
