Your friend’s car has broken down, so you volunteer to push it with your own car to the nearestrepair shop, which is 2.0 km away. You carefully move your car so that the bumpers of the two carsare in contact. You then slowly accelerate to a speed of 2.5 m/s over the course of 1.0 min. The massof your friend’s car is 1.2 x 10 ^3 kg. Assume negligible friction.a) Calculate the normal force between the two bumpers. b) You then maintain a speed of 2.5 m/s. How long does it take you to reach the repair shop? c) Sketch the shape of a velocity time graph for the entire motion. d) Sketch the shape of a position time graph for the entire motion.
The rocket sled shown in the figure accelerates to the right at a rate of 29.4m/s2. Its passenger has a mass of 73 kg. (a) Calculate the horizontal component of the force Fh the seat exerts against his body. Fh = 2146.2N (b) Compare this with his weight by using a ratio. Fh/w (d) Calculate the magnitude of the total force the seat exerts against his body. I need to find the net force. Thank you.
(c) A claw hammer can be used both to drive nails into a piece of wood and to get themback out (see figure 1b). The person in the image needs to exert a force of 50 Non the hammer to pull the nail loose. The handle is 25 cm long, and the distancebetween the handle and the head of the nail is 2.0 cm. Find the force the hammeris exerting on the wood (not the nail!). You may assume that the point where thehammer touches the wood is along the line of the handle. Hint: Start your answerwith a free-body diagram. May I have a detailed step by step explanation of this c) problem? Its for a hand in homework and I don't know how to solve it
Hey. I'm having trouble with this issue a horizontal force (F) is applied to the car (shown in the figure below) so that the blocks remain parked relative to the car. Assume all surfaces, wheels and pulleys are frictionlessif M=10kg, m1=5kg and m2+3kg, determine the acceleration of the car and the value of F Se M=10 kg, m1=5 kg e m2= 3 kg, determine a aceleração do carro e o valor de F. A) a= 5 m/s2; F=102 NB) a= 6 m/s2; F=108 NC) a= 4 m/s2; F=88 ND)a= 8 m/s2; F=18 N

As a protest against the umpire’s calls, a baseball pitcherthrows a ball straight up into the air at a speed of 20.0 m/s. Inthe process, he moves his hand through a distance of 1.50 m.If the ball has a mass of 0.150 kg, find the force he exerts onthe ball to give it this upward speed.
The Omani "Noor Majan" car is of mass (M) kg is going up Jabal Akhdar, at angle with (N) people inside the car each of (mp) kgThe car model provides (L) Newtons of liftand it is accelerating up at (a)m/s^ 2 . The road provides a coefficienct of kinetic friction ( mu k ) . What is the force exerted by the engine? [Hint: This question has no numbers. Your answer needs to be an equation.]
A 90-kg man walks on a sawhorse, as shown below. The sawhorse is 2.0 m long and 1.0 m high, and its mass is 25.0 kg. Calculate the normal reaction force on each leg at the contact point with the floor when the man is 0.5 m from the far end of the sawhorse. (Hint: At each end, find the total reaction force first. This reaction force is the vector sum of two reaction forces, each acting along one leg. The normal reaction force at the contact point with the floor is the normal (with respect to the floor) component of this force.)
