Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 7.1 for interacting-objects problems. A 1290 -kg car is pushing an out-of-gear 2100 -kg truck that has a dead battery. When the driver steps on the accelerator, the drive wheels of the car push horizontally against the ground with a force of 4580 N. The rolling friction of the car can be neglected, but the heavier truck has a rolling friction of 770 N including the "friction" of turning the truck's drivetrain. What is the magnitude of the force the car applies to the truck?

A 1200 kg car is traveling towards a hill at a speed of 25.3 m/s when suddenly the car runs out of gas to what vertical hight in meters is the car able to coast up the hill before coming to a stop
(2) The box with M = 40kg shown below is being pulled by two pulleys exerting forces F₁ = 400 N (0₁ = 60°) and F₂ = 200 N (0₂= 15°) up an incline with an angle 0₁ = 30°. If the uk = 0.15. What is the acceleration of the box? Would the F₁ or F₂ be enough alone to pull the box up if the other pulley would stop working?

Problem 4: Speed deamplifier. In the figure above on the right, block 1 of mass m1 slides along an x-axis on a frictionless floor at speed 4 m/sec.Then it undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 2 of mass m2 = 2m1. Next, block 2 undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 3 of mass mz = 4m1. What then is the speed of block 3? Answer: 16 m/sec or 1.78 m/sec.
