In an emergency stop to avoid an accident, a shoulder-strap seatbelt holds a 58 passenger in place. If the car was initially traveling at 94 and came to a stop in 5.2 along a straight, level road, what was the magnitude of the average force applied to the passenger by the seatbelt? What was the direction of the average force applied to the passenger by the seatbelt?

Two blocks are connected via a pulley, both blocks have a mass of 10.kg. One block rests on a horizontal surface and the other one hangs freely by a cord which passes over a pulley. Assume the cord does not stretch, ignore mass of pulley and cord, therefore acceleration is the same for both blocks and tension is the same for both blocks. The hanging block moves down so the block lying on the horizontal surface moves to the right. What is the acceleration (m/s^2) of the blocks if the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.50.

Problem 4: Consider applying Newton's second law to a man riding an elevator (perhaps to calculate his acceleration). Which of the following forces must be considered? Choose all that apply. The force of gravity on the elevator The force that the elevator floor exerts on the man's feet The force of gravity on the man The force that the man's feet exert on the floor of the elevator The force that the man's head exerts on his neck The force the elevator cable exerts on the elevator car
Two people are pushing a truck across a parking lot. The truck has a mass of about 2 × 103 kg. First, they take turns pushing. When Person A pushes the truck, the truck accelerates at a rate of 1 m/s2. When Person B pushes the truck, it accelerates at a rate of 2 m/s?. (a) Both people stand behind the truck and push in the same direction. What is the net force on the truck? At what rate will the truck accelerate? (b) Person A stands at the back of the truck and Person B stands at the front, and they push in opposite directions. What is the net force on the truck? At what rate will the truck accelerate? In what direction? For both (a) and (b), draw a picture indicating the forces applied by A and B as well as the motion of the truck.
The force of tension in the cable that is supporting an elevator is 15 000 N. If the weight of the elevator is 15 000 N, describe the motion of the elevator. Seat belts in automobiles are a very important safety feature. Using physics terms or laws, explain the importance of seat belts.

A person pushes a 0.20 kg lunch tray across a table, and it slows down as it slides because of friction. The coefficients of friction between the tray and the table are µs = 0.15 and µk = 0.11. What would the acceleration of the tray be?
A 129 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the horizontal. Someone gives the crate a quick shove to get it moving, after which it slides down the ramp without any further assistance. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is ls = 0.23. What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s?) of the crate?
