I do not understand how to do this question: The answer is G>H>C>F>B>D>E>A but I do not understand why that is the correct answer. Could you explain the formulas used for solving this? Eight cars move along smooth horizontal roadways in the same direction at specified speeds, v, toward identical barriers. All the cars have the same size and shape, but carry different loads and, hence, have different masses, m. The cars collide with the barriers and come to a stop after having traveled some distance. Assume the force exerted on each of the cars by their respective barrier is the same. Rank the situations described here from greatest to smallest according to the stopping distance of each vehicle. If any situations yield the same stopping distance, give them the same ranking. (Use only ">" or "=" symbols. Do not include any parentheses around the letters or symbols.) a. m = 1,800 kg; v = 20 m/s b. m = 1,800 kg; v = 40 m/s c. m = 1,800 kg; v = 60 m/s d. m = 5,400…
The figure shows a top view of an intersection where a traffic accident occurred. Vehicle 1 was traveling eastward while Vehicle 2, traveling northward, ran through a stop sign and crashed into Vehicle 1. The collision was violent. As the vehicles crushed, they became entangled and moved as one, sliding across the intersection and leaving the road. Here are some technical details of the accident: • Vehicle 2 was larger, weighing 50% more than Vehicle 1. • According to a driver following Vehicle 1, it was traveling at the posted speed limit. • Both streets had the same speed limit. It is not known how fast Vehicle 2 was traveling. • The collision caused Vehicle 1 to divert its path by an angle of 0 = 60°, as shown in the figure. • The street was covered with snow and ice, making conditions very slippery. Use the information above to answer the following questions. (I'm expecting the first question to be fairly straightforward, and the second question to be more tricky.) 1. We know that…
