Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, the having a mass of 130,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s, and the second having a mass of 115,000 kg and a velocity of -0.120 m/s. minus indicates direction of motion.) What is their final velocity (in m/s)?

The total force on an object is ( 20 ı ^ + 40 ȷ ^ ) Newtons. Its acceleration is ( 4 ı ^ + 6 k ^ ) m/s2. Calculate the object's mass
During a car collision, the knee, thighbone, and hip can sustain a force no greater than 4000 NN. Forces that exceed this amount could cause dislocations or fractures. Assume that in a collision a knee stops when it hits the car's dashboard. Also assume that the mass of the body parts stopped by the knee is about 20% of the total body mass. The person with a mass of 90 kgkg is initially traveling at 18 m/sm/s (40 mi/hmi/h). What minimum stopping time interval in needed to avoid injury to the knee? What is the minimum stopping distance?
A bullet enters the block with a velocity V0 = 250 m / s at X = 0 and travels 10 cm before stopping totally.
