You are a police officer examining the scene of a car crash that claimed the life of someone driving a Tesla. There was a collision involving them and a pickup truck. The truck driver, who survived, said he was travelling North into the intersection and the Tesla was travelling East into the intersection. The truck driver claims that he was not exceeding the speed limit when the accident occurred. You note the posted speed limit was 80 km/h. Like airplanes, Teslas have a black box that records various statistics in the event a collision occurs. After analyzing the data from the black box, you discover the Tesla was driving at a velocity of 69.6 km/h [E] when the collision occurred. You google the mass of both of the vehicles and find the Tesla should be about 2020 kg and the truck should be about 2820 kg. During the collision, the two vehicles crumpled and became entangled, the skid marks revealing that the two vehicles travelled E 68° N after impact. How fast, in km/h, was the truck…
The head injury criterion (HIC) is used to assess the likelihood of head injuries arising from various types of collisions; an HIC greater than about 1000 s is likely to result in severe injuries or even death. The criterion can be written as HIC = (aavg/g)2.5Δt, where aavg is the average acceleration during the time Δt that the head is being accelerated, and g is the free-fall acceleration. Shown is a simplified graph of the net force on a crash dummy’s 4.5 kg head as it hits the airbag during a automobile collision. What is the HIC in this collision?

As you are driving to school one day, you pass a construction site of a new building and you stop to watch for a few minutes. A crane is lifting a batch of bricks on a pallet to an upper floor of the building. Suddenly a brick falls off the rising pallet. You measure the time it takes for the brick to hit the ground and you find it to be 2.5 seconds. The crane has height markings. You saw the brick fell off the pallet at a height of 30.7 meters above the ground. A falling brick can be dangerous, and you wonder how fast the brick was moving when it hit the ground. Since you are taking physics, you quickly calculate the answer.
Tsunamis are much different than rogue waves. While rogue waves and other waves are generated by winds, tsunamis originate from geological events such as movements of tectonic plates. Tsunamis tend to travel very fast. A tsunami generated off the coast of Chile in 1990 is estimated to have traveled approximately 6200 miles to Hawaii in 15 hours. Determine the speed in mi/hr and m/s. (Given: 1.0 m/s = 2.24 mi/hr)

Find the magnitude of the average acceleration, aave, in meters per square second. Write an expression for the magnitude of the average net force, Fb, that the boxer must apply to his fist to achieve the given velocity. (Write the expression in terms of m, v and t.) What is the numerical value of Fb, in newtons?
