Fortunately nobody gets hurt. Suppose the car is going north at 20m/s ( about 45mph) and the truck is coming from the east at 10m/s ( about 22mph). The car and truck stick together after the %3D collision. (a) Find the speed and direction of the car and truck immediately after the collision.

In a scifi movie about astronauts on a space station, one of the astronaut's safety line is cut while on a space walk. The astronaut, who 10 meters from the shuttle and is moving 0.1 m/s away from it, finds that the suit's thruster pack has also been damaged and no longer works and that only 30 seconds of air remains. To get back to the shuttle, the astronaut unstraps a 10-kg tool kit and throws it away with a speed of 5 m/s. In the scene, the astronaut, who has a mass of 100 kg without the toolkit, survives. Is this reasonable?arrow_forwardIf you free the cork in a highly pressurized champagne bottle, the resulting launch of the cork will, in principle, cause the bottle to recoil.

- A cart that rolls with low friction on a track is originally at rest. It is given a brief push, and it coasts a long distance along a track in the +x direction, slowly coming to a stop. Study graphs (A) - (C) below, which do not have the vertical axes labeled. One is a position (x) versus time graph, one is a momentum (px) versus time graph, and one is a net force (Fnet,x) versus time graph. Label the vertical (y-) axis of each of the graphs, and explain how you made your determination.
