Many problems in Physics use subscripts to identify quantities. For example, many of the problems that will be considered have an 'initial' and 'final' situation. For example, "the final velocity of an object is equal to the initial velocity plus the acceleration multiplied by time." Mathematically, this is written as: vf = V¡ + at. There are two velocities in this equation, but the subscripts i' and 'f' indicate that they are separate variables. Furthermore, the 'signs' of the variables must be consistent. And although it isn't always possible, the variable letters try to reflect the quantities they represent (v for velocity, t for time, a for acceleration, etc.). What is the final velocity of a car starting from rest with a = 2.5 and t = 4 s? Round your answer to the tenths place,

A baggage handler at an airport applies a constant horizontal force with magnitude F₁ to push a box, of mass M, across a rough horizontal surface with a very small constant acceleration a. ( Figure 1) Figure 2F Submit ▾ Part B Now assume that the baggage handler pushes a third box (Figure 2) of mass m/2 so that it accelerates at a rate of 2a. How does the magnitude of the force F that the handler applies to this box compare to the magnitude of the force F₁ applied to the first box? ▸ View Available Hint(s) 0 2F Submit

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.
