A 70.0-kg man and a 55.0-kg woman hold- ing a 2.50-kg purse on ice skates stand facing each other. (a) If the woman pushes the man backwards so that his final speed is 1.50 m/s, with what average force did she push him, assum- ing they were in contact for 0.500 s? (b) What is the woman’s recoil speed? (c) If she now throws her 2.50-kg purse at him at a 20.0° angle above the horizontal and at 4.20 m/s relative to the ground, what is her subsequent speed?

If you free the cork in a highly pressurized champagne bottle, the resulting launch ofthe cork will (in principle) cause the bottle to recoil. A filled champagne bottle has a mass of 1.7 kg. The cork has a mass of 7.3 g and is launched at 20 m/s. If the bottlecould move freely, with what speed would it recoil? Is this a speed you are likely to notice?
One study suggests that a brain concussion can occur if a person’s head is subjected to an acceleration assmall as 60g, where g is the acceleration of gravity. (a) If the massof the person’s head is 4.8 kg, what is the magnitude of the force?(b) If the impulse delivered to the person’s head is 18 kg # m>s, overwhat time interval is the force applied?
Your friend’s car has broken down, so you volunteer to push it with your own car to the nearestrepair shop, which is 2.0 km away. You carefully move your car so that the bumpers of the two carsare in contact. You then slowly accelerate to a speed of 2.5 m/s over the course of 1.0 min. The massof your friend’s car is 1.2 x 10 ^3 kg. Assume negligible friction.a) Calculate the normal force between the two bumpers. b) You then maintain a speed of 2.5 m/s. How long does it take you to reach the repair shop? c) Sketch the shape of a velocity time graph for the entire motion. d) Sketch the shape of a position time graph for the entire motion.

A 6.00 kg box sits halfway up a 13.0 m long ramp that is inclined at an angle of 15.0o. You shove a second box, of mass 3.00 kg, that's at the bottom of the ramp, so that it starts sliding up the ramp with a speed of 20.0 m/s. It hits the first box, sticks to it, and they both continue to slide up the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the boxes and the ramp is 0.250. Where, from the bottom of the ramp, do they come to rest?
Most of us know intuitively that in a head-on colli-sion between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Whyis this? Many people imagine that the collision forceexerted on the car is much greater than that exerted onthe truck. To substantiate this view, they point out that thecar is crushed, whereas the truck is only dented. This ideaof unequal forces, of course, is false; Newton’s third lawtells us that both objects are acted upon by forces of thesame magnitude. The truck suffers less damage because it is made of stronger metal. But what about the two driv-ers? Do they experience the same forces? To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is initially moving at 8.00 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on collision. Each driver has mass 80.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4 000 kg for the truck. If the colli-sion time is 0.120 s, what…
