Chapter 13.3, Problem 13.134P
An estimate of the expected load on over-the-shoulder seat belts is to be made before designing prototype belts that will be evaluated in automobile crash tests. Assuming that an automobile traveling at 45 mi/h is brought to a stop in 110 ms, determine (a) the average impulsive force exerted by a 200-lb man on the belt, (b) the maximum force Fm exerted on the belt if the force-time diagram has the shape shown.

Five identical boxes with the same speeds slide along a frictionless horizontal surface. The mass of each box is 10 kg. The same magnitude force, F, is applied to each box, but along different directions. Rank the five situations described here from greatest to smallest according to the work done on the box by the force while the box moves through the distance d indicated in each description. For this analysis, take motion/distance/force directed to the right as positive and force directed up as positive. If any of the situations result in the same work being done, give them the same ranking. (Use only ">" or "=" symbols. Do not include any parentheses around the letters or symbols.)
