A car with a mass of 1453 kg is rolling along a flat stretch of road and eventually comes to a stop due to rolling friction. If the car begins with a speed of 10.0 m/s and the car comes to a stop in 6.88 s, what is the coefficient of rolling friction between the tires and the road?
The velocity of a 10-kg object is given by v=5t2i(7t+2t3)j, where if t is in seconds, then v will be in meters per second. a. What is the net force on the object as a function of time? b. What is the momentum of the object when t = 15.0 s?
You are part of a team in an engineering class that is working on a scale model of a new design for a life vest. You have been asked to find the mass of a piece of foam that will be used for flotation. Because the piece is too bulky to fit on your balance, you break it into two parts. You measure the mass of the first part as 128.3 0.3 g and the second part as 77.0 0.3 g. a. What are the maximum and minimum values for the total mass you might reasonably report? b. What is the best estimate for the total mass of the foam? Hint: Propagation of uncertainty is described in Appendix A.

When a star dies, much of its mass may collapse into a single point known as a black hole. The gravitational force of a black hole on surrounding astronomical objects can be very great. Astronomers estimate the strength of this force by observing the orbits of such objects around a black hole. What is the gravitational force exerted by a black hole on a 1-solar-mass star whose orbit has a 1.4 1010 m radius and a period of 5.6 days?
