Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.4DQ
The harder you hit the brakes while driving forward, the more the front end of your car will move down (and the rear end move up). Why? What happens when cars accelerate forward? Why do drag racers not use front-wheel drive only?

A cart on wheels (assume frictionless) with a mass of 20 kg is pulled rightward with a 50N force. What is its acceleration?
Light travels through a vacuum at a speed of 2.998 x 108m/s. Determine the speed of light in the following media:
crown glass (n = 1.52)
2.62 Collision. The engineer of a passenger train traveling at
25.0 m/s sights a freight train whose caboose is 200 m ahead on the
same track (Fig. P2.62). The freight train is traveling at 15.0 m/s in the
same direction as the passenger train. The engineer of the passenger
train immediately applies the brakes, causing a constant acceleration
of 0.100 m/s² in a direction opposite to the train's velocity, while the
freight train continues with constant speed. Take x = 0 at the location
of the front of the passenger train when the engineer applies the brakes.
(a) Will the cows nearby witness a collision? (b) If so, where will it take
place? (c) On a single graph, sketch the positions of the front of the pas-
senger train and the back of the freight train.
