a. Calculate the force (in N) needed to bring a 950 kg car to rest from a speed of 80.0 km/h in a distance of 110 m (a fairly typical distance for a non-panic stop). b. Suppose instead the car hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. Calculate the force exerted on the car and compare it with the force found in part (a). force in (b)/force in (a)=
Sometimes, steep roads going down have a small safety road by the side that goes up, which vehicules can use in an emergency, to slow down. A 3362.6 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 14 degrees that the driver can use to stop the truck. The truck hits the ramp moving at 20.58 m/s and then travels 35.6 meters up the ramp before it comes to a stop. What work is done by the gravel to stop the truck?
In the figure below, a runaway truck with failed brakes is moving downgrade at 36 m/s just before the driver steers the truck up a frictionless emergency escape ramp with an inclination of theta = 15°. The truck’s mass is 1.5 x 104 kg. (a) What minimum length L of the ramp must the ramp have if the truck is to stop at the top of the ramp at height h? (b) Does the minimum length L increase, decrease, or remain the same if the truck’s mass is decreased? Why? (c) If its speed is decreased? Why? Hint: Use Energy Principles.

The block slides up a slope to a height of 3.00 m and then slides across a 2.50 m long rough surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to 0.325. The block continues to travel to the right and bumps into a massless spring with a spring constant (k) equal to 2320 N/m. a) How much does the spring get compressed by the block with respect to its equilibrium length?

A 2000kg truck starts at rest and reaches a speed of 15 m/s over a time period of 5s. What is the value of the force required to do this? Express answer in Newtons.
Your answer is partially correct. The only force acting on a 4.5 kg body as it moves along the positive x axis has an x component F,= -4x N, where x is in meters. The velocity of the body at x = 1.4 m is 10 m/s. (a) What is the velocity of the body at x = 3.2 m? (b) At what positive value of x will the body have a velocity of 2.0 m/s?

At the start of a race, a four-man bobsled team pushes their sled as fast as they can along a 50 m flat starting stretch. The net force that the four men together apply to the 325 kg bobsled is 80.093 N directed at 15 degrees below the horizontal. As they push, 60 N of kinetic friction opposes them. What is the speed of the sled right before the team jumps on the sled?
