About 80 g of blood is pumped from the heart during each heartbeat. The blood starts at rest and has a speed of about 0.60 m/s in the aorta. If the pumping takes 0.17 s, What is the magnitude of the average force on the blood?
An object has a velocity (4.04 m/s)i + (-4.96 m/s)j + (4.44 m/s)k. In a time of 3.84 s its velocity becomes (-3.75 m/s)i + (0.00 m/s)j + (4.44 m/s)k. If the mass of the object is 2.97 kg, what is the magnitude of the net force on the object, in N, during the 3.84 s? Assume the acceleration is constant.
(Assume no friction forces) A train of 100 railroad cars each with a mass of 6 x 104 kg is being pulled by a locomotive that has a mass of 4.5 x 105 kg. The train leaves the freight yard at 12:00 noon on May the 5th. It starts from an initial velocity of 0. It takes the locomotive 8 kilometers to get the train up to a speed of 75 km/hr. The train then travels at an average speed of 75 km/hr for 4,200 km. After 4,200 km the train decelerates to a stop in 20 minutes. How long in minutes (to the nearest hundredth of a minute) did it take to reach 75 km/hr at the beginning? How much work was done to get the train to 75 km/hr. What was the KE of the train when it reached 75 km/hr? How much work was done on the train during the time it traveled the 4,200 km at 75 km/hr? What is the total distance the train traveled from beginning to end to the nearest km? What date and time does it arrive at its destination? (Date: Hour: min)? What is the work required to stop the train? What was…

The resistive force exerted by air on the airplane has a magnitude of 4.0 x 104 N. By Newton’s third law, if the engines exert a force on the exhaust gases to expel them out of the back of the engine, the exhaust gases exert a force on the engines in the direction of the airplane’s travel. This force is called thrust, and the value of the thrust in this situation is 7.50 x 104 N.
