A 0.0005 kg mosquito flying south on HWY 61 at 1 m/s hits a north bound 40,000 kg semi-truck travelling at 20 m/s. The mosquito has a length of 5 mm (1000 mm = 1 m) and the truck has a length of 20 m. What would be a good way to estimate how long the collision between the mosquito and the truck lasted? What assumptions might you make? Once you have an estimate of the time over which the collision lasted, calculate the force on the mosquito.
