For experiment 1,draw and label separate free-body diagrams for glider A and glider M at an instant during the collision (i.e., while the gliders are in contact).
1. While the gliders are in contact, how does the net force on glider A compare to the net force on glider M? Discuss both magnitude and direction.
How, if at all, would this comparison differ if you had chosen a different instant (while the gliders are still in contact)? Explain.

- In your solutions, remember to do algebra first to derive equations and plug in values for numerical solutions at the end. 1. A flatbed truck drives past you on a horizontal, flat road at 100 km/hr. Just when it passes you, a crate falls off the truck and lands flat on the ground and travels 50 m before coming to a stop. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the crate. Assume that the initial speed of the crate is the same as the truck, 100 km/hr. In your solution, include appropriate free body diagrams (FBD) for the crate, and break up the forces acting on the crate into components either on the FBD or in a table of the components.arrow_forwardCorrect Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at speed 3v, while the second was traveling at speed 2v at an angle o south of east (as indicated in the figure). After the collision, the two-car system travels at speed vfinal at an angle 0 east of north. (Figure 1) Part B What is the angle 0 with respect to north made by the velocity vector of the two cars after the collision? Express your answer in terms of 4. Your answer should contain an inverse trigonometric function using the notation asin, atan etc. and not arcsin, arctan etc. Tigure 1 of 1 > View Available Hint(s) Πν ΑΣφ 2v Vfinal = 3v Submit E Provide Feedback Nextarrow_forwardA tie of uniform width is laid out on a table, with a fraction of its length hanging over the edge. Initially, the tie is at rest. (a) If the fraction hanging from the table is increased, the tie eventually slides to the ground. Explain.

After the collision, block B slides to the right and block A rebounds to the left at 2.5meters per second. Find the velocity of B after the collision?arrow_forwardThree objects AA, BB, and CC are moving as shown in the figure below (Figure 1). Assume that vAvAv_A = 12.0 m/sm/s, vBvBv_B = 9.6 m/sm/s, and vCvCv_C = 2.8 m/sm/s. a) Find the xx-component of the net momentum of the particles if we define the system to consist of BB and CC.

Show your work and explain.arrow_forwardFill in your choice below, then EXPLAIN your reasoning in the 'Rationale' section: A traffic officer can determine if a car was speeding by looking at how long the skid marks are on the road. A standard VW Golf GTi will normally skid 8 m if it travels at 60 km/h and the driver suddenly 'locks' the brakes. How far will it skid if it was travelling at 180 km/h instead of 60 km/h?
