7. You are driving along a straight section of road at 13 m/s when 10 m in front of you a furry creature jumps out into the middle of the road. You instantly slam on your breaks, but the breaks lock so that you slide along the pavement with kinetic coefficient of friction between the tires and the pavement of 0.65. By what distance do you stop short of running over the furry creature or by what distance is your roadkill dinner behind you when your car finally comes to a halt? Note that the total mass of the car (including you) is 1360 kg, while the mass of the furry creature is 2.6 kg.

Internal injuries in vehicular accidents may be due to what is called the “third collision.” The first collision is the vehicle hitting the external object. The second collision is the person hitting something on the inside of the car, such as the dashboard or windshield. This may cause external lacerations. The third collision, possibly the most damaging to the body, is when organs, such as the heart or brain, hit the ribcage, skull, or other confines of the body, bruising the tissues on the leading edge and tearing the organ from its supporting structures on the trailing edge. a. Why is there a third collision? In other words, why are the organs still moving after the second collision?b. If the vehicle was traveling at 60 mph before the first collision, would the organs be traveling faster than, equal to, or slower than 60 mph just before the third collision?
1 Standing on the roof of a 74-m tall building, a girl holds her hand past the edge and throws a ball straight up at 9.8 m/s. The ball rises, then falls and strikes the ground. Considering "up" to be the positive direction, find the ball's velocity v when it is 45 m above the ground. Remember to include a "-" sign if the velocity is negative. U V= m/s Record your numerical answer below, assuming three significant figures.
7. Sally is driving at a constant speed of 25 m/s on a straight horizontal road. She sees an obstacle on the road ahead and applies the brakes! The wheels lock causing the car to slide forward. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is 0.40, how long does it take the car to come to a complete stop?
m L 4. A box with a mass m = 0.4 kg is released from rest at the top of a curved section of a track that is one quarter of a circle with a radius R = 0.2m. When the box reaches the bottom of the curved track it slides on a horizontal section of the track. There is no friction on the curved section of the track. a. Find the velocity of the box at the bottom of the curved section of the track. b. Find the normal force on the block when it is at the bottom of the circular section of the ramp. If there is a Resistive force F on the horizontal section of the track and is given as a function of speed by F=-4v² c. Write down the differential equation for the speed of the block. 1 d.
