A 925-kg pickup decelerates to rest from a speed of 97.5 km/h in a distance of 110 m. Suppose the pickup is initially moving in the positive direction. If the brakes are the only thing making the pickup come to a stop, calculate the force (in newtons, in a component along the direction of motion of the pickup) that the brakes apply on the pickup. Suppose instead of braking that the pickup hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force, in newtons, exerted on the pickup in this case. What is the ratio of the force on the pickup from the concrete to the braking force?

A 2200 kg car is driving down a highway at a constant velocity when a deer jumps out onto the road 50.5 m ahead. The coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road is 0.29. Calculate the initial velocity of the car if it is able to stop just before hitting the deer. (You do not need to account for reaction time of the driver. Assuming the car is breaking the entire 50.5 m distance and that friction is the only force stopping the car.) v0 = m/s
A 925-kg pickup decelerates to rest from a speed of 75 km/h in a distance of 140 m. Consider that the pickup is initially moving in the positive direction. Suppose instead of braking that the pickup hits a concrete abutment at frill speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force, in newtons, exerted on the pickup in this case.
A car traveling at 20 m/s runs into a bridge abutment and crumples for 1.2 m before coming to a full stop. If we estimate the process as constant deceleration motion, what is the average force exerted on the car, which weighs 1500 kg, during the collision process?
Delfa falls from the building and is caught by the superhero. Assuming that Delfa with a mass of 55 kg is falling at a terminal velocity of 70 m/s, determine the average force is exerted on her if it takes 0.1 sec to slow her to stop.
A force of 1.50 N acts on a 0.20-kg carts so as to uniformly accelerate it along a straight air track. The track and force are horizontal and in line. How fast is the cart going after acceleration from rest through 30 cm, if friction is negligible?
While rollerblading through your neighborhood, you suddenly lose control and begin coasting down a hill, unable to stop. Fortunately, you see a neighbor moving a mattress into their house and decide that colliding with the mattress would be far less painful than the alternatives. Your plan works to perfection and you are slowed gently over the course of 1.4 seconds. Assuming your mass is 80 kg and your initial velocity was 10 m/s, find the average force applied on your body by the mattress (in N).
A 4768-kg roller coaster train full of riders approaches the loading dock at a speed of 17.1 m/s. It is abruptly decelerated to a speed of 2.20 m/s over a distance of 13.6 m. Determine the magnitude of the retarding force which acts upon the roller coaster cars.
You bring a small remote controlled boat with a mass of 2.2kg to a small pond to rest it out. Starting from rest, you run the boat at full throttle for a little while. After the boat has traveled a distance of 11.8 meters, it is traveling with a speed of 7.5 m/s. If the forward force of thrust acting on the boat is 12.0 N, determine the magnitude of the backward force of "water resistance" acting on the boat.
The force F, acting in a constant direction on the 17-kg block, has a magnitude which varies with the position s of the block. When s = 0 the block is moving to the right at v = 6 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface is μk = 0.3 a) Determine how far the block must slide before its velocity becomes 15 m/s.
A 2 000-kg car is slowed down uniformly from 20.0 m/s to 5.00 m/s in 4.00 s. (a) What average force acted on the car during that time, and (b) how far did the car travel during that time?
Three forces act on a 5-kg object: F1 = -2.0i + 3.0j N, F2 = 5.0i + 3.5j N, and F3 = 0.5i- 1.0j N. Assuming the object starts at rest at to = 0, write its velocity as a function of time.
You are locked inside the train car and want to get it moving to draw attention to your plight. There is effectively no friction between the axle and the car, and the train is on horizontal tracks. To try and get the car moving with respect to the ground, you run and slam with all your force against the wall at the front. What happens with the car after you slammed against the wall of the car? (A) The car starts moving forward at constant speed and keeps moving. (B) The car starts moving backward at constant speed and keeps moving. (C) The car moves briefly as you run, but stops again after you run into the wall (D) You only hurt your shoulder; the car doesn't move at all at any time.
