The figure shows an approximate plot of force magnitude F versus time t during the collision of a 53 g Superball with a wall. The initial velocity of the ball is 38 m/s perpendicular to the wall, in the negative direction of an x axis. It rebounds directly back with approximately the same speed, also perpendicular to the wall. What is Fmax, the maximum magnitude of the force on the ball from the wall during the collision?

An 70 kg basketball player lands from a jump and tries to stop her forward motion or momentum. The normal contact force exerted by the floor on her shoes is 2800 N. The frictional force exerted by the floor on her shoes is 800 N and this force acts posteriorly on the player. There was minimal medial-lateral force during the landing and so this component of the ground reaction force can be ignored. What is the resultant ground reaction force exerted by the floor on the basketball player's shoes? How many times greater than the player's body weight is this resultant ground reaction force calculated in part the first part?

Most of us know intuitively that in a head-on collision between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Why is this? Many people imagine that the collision force exerted on the car is much greater than that exerted on the truck. To substantiate this view, they point out that the car is crushed, whereas the truck is only dented. This idea of unequal forces, of course, is false; Newton's third law tells us that both objects are acted upon by forces of the same magnitude. The truck suffers less damage because it is made of stronger metal. But what about the two drivers? Do they experience the same forces? To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is initially moving at 7.70 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on collision. Each driver has mass 72.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4,000 kg for the truck. If the collision time is 0.110 s,…
Two bricks, each of mass M, head directly toward each other on a frictionless surface and collide, as shown. Brick A has twice the speed as brick B. Which one of the following statements is true regarding the forces the objects exert on each other during the collision? 2v – A В The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is four times smaller than the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is two times smaller than the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is equal to the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. O The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is twice as large as the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is four times as large as the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A.

You are the juror of a case involving a drunken driver whose 1044.0 kg sports car ran into a stationary 2047.0 kg station wagon stopped at a red traffic light. The cars stuck together and slid with locked wheels for 10.0 m before coming to rest. The coefficient of sliding friction on the dry road was 0.7. Estimate the speed of the sports car when it hit the station wagon. Estimate the instantaneous acceleration of the sports car during the actual collision if the colliding cars reach the same final speed after collapsing a combined total distance of 0.7 m.
