A man claims he can safely hold on to a 10.20 kg child in a head-on collision with a relative speed of 123. mi/h lasting for 0.140 s as long as he has his seat belt on. Hint: 1 mi/h = 0.447 m/s (a) Find the magnitude of the momentum of the child. A man claims he can safely hold on to a 10.20 kg child in a head-on collision with a relative speed of 123. mi/h lasting for 0.140 s as long as he has his seat belt on. (c) For comparison, calculate the magnitude of force generated by the record weightlifting champion in the 2004 Olympics. He lifted 263 kg. Based on these results, is the man’s claim valid? Explain why or why not.
A careless driver driving at 25 m/s hit a tree while fumbling with his phone. Assume the driver was in contact with the air bag for 0.22 seconds, and his upper body has 37 kg in mass, then how much average force (absolute value) does the air bag exert on the driver's upper body? Ignore gravity since the force was horizontal. Hint: use impulse and the change of momentum.
A rocket sled with a mass of 2900 kg moves at 250 m/s on a set of rails. At a certain point, a scoop on the sled dips into a trough of water located between the tracks and scoops water into an empty tank on the sled. By applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum, determine the speed of the sled after 920 kg of water has been scooped up. Ignore any retarding force on the scoop.
