Transcribed Image Text:A ball rolls onto the path of your car as you drive down a quiet neighborhood street. To avoid hitting the child that runs
to retrieve the ball, you apply your brakes for 1.18 s. The car slows down from 14.5î + 4.50k m/s to 8.251 + 3.50k m/s.
The mass of the car is 1.24 103 kg. (a) During the time the brakes were applied, what was the average force exerted on
your car? Express your answer in vector form.

- An electron is a subatomic particle (m= 9.11 x 10-31 kg) that is subject to electric forces. An electron moving in the +x direction accelerates from an initial velocity of +7.31 x 105 m/s to a final velocity of 1.98 x 106 m/s while traveling a distance of 0.0545 m. The electron's acceleration is due to two electric forces parallel to the x axis: F₁ = 7.52 x 10-¹7 N, and F2, which points in the -x direction. Find the magnitudes of (a) the net force acting on the electron and (b) the electric force F2.

- A teenager is pushing a cart. There is no friction between the cart and the ground. Mass of the cart is 120 kg. Cart is initially at rest (at time = 0 s). Direction to the right is positive. He pushed the cart for 5 s (from t = 0 s to t = 5 s) with a force of 75 N to the right hand side. Then he stopped pushing for 5 s (from t = 5 s to t = 10 s). Then he pushed the cart for 10 s (from t = 10 s to t = 20 s) with a force of 75 N to the left hand side. Question: Calculate the kinetic energy of the cart at t = 5 s.arrow_forwardAn 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?

Car B weighs 1125 lb and was traveling westward at 43.0 mph. The cars locked bumpers and slid castward with their wheels locked for 18.5 ft before stopping. You have measured the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement to be 0.750. What speed (in miles per hour) was car A traveling just before the collision?
