Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 13.5 m/s toward the east and the other is traveling north with speed v2 Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick angle of 65.0° north of east. Determine the initial speed v together, leaving parallel skid marks at an of the northward- moving vehicle. m/s The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the speed limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth? Yes No

A rocket is fired in a gravity-free environment in deep space. The rocket has an initial mass of 9500 kg and ejects gas with a velocity of 2450 m/s. The rocket fires for 4.40 s. Calculate the mass (in kg) of the gas that must be ejected in the time given to give the rocket an acceleration of 49.50 m/s2
A 1170-kgkg car and a 2090-kgkg pickup truck approach a curve on the expressway that has a radius of 209 mm. At what angle should the highway engineer bank this curve so that vehicles traveling at 64.3 mi/hmi/h can safely round it regardless of the condition of their tires? Should the heavy truck go slower than the lighter car? As the car and truck round the curve at 64.3 mi/hmi/h, find the normal force on the car to the highway surface. As the car and truck round the curve at 64.3 mi/hmi/h, find the normal force on the truck to the highway surface.
IVIT IN UTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANUTHER A baseball with a mass of 145 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 39.7 m/s (89 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.15 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.6 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

In a game of billiards, the cue ball is traveling eastward when it strikes a second ball that is initially at rest. After the collision, the cue ball moves at 4.65 m/s, 25.0° south of east, and the second ball's speed is 3.11 m/s. At what angle (north of east) does the second ball travel? Assume each ball has a mass of 162 g. Submit A Tries 0/5 What was the speed of the cue ball prior to the collision? Tries 0/5 Is the kinetic energy of the colliding balls conserved?

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.
