Two figure skaters are coasting in the same direction, with the leading skater moving at 5.5 m/s and the trailing skating moving at 6.2 m/s. When the trailing skater catches up with the leading skater, he picks her up without applying any horizontal forces on his skates. If the trailing skater is 50 heavier than the 50-kg leading skater, what is their speed after he picks her up?
How much fuel would be needed for a 1000-kg rocket (this is its mass with no fuel) to take off from Earth and reach 1000 m/s in 30 s? The exhaust speed is 1000 m/s.
To lift off from the Moon, a 9.50 105 kg rocket needs a thrust larger than the force of gravity. If the exhaust velocity is 4.25 103 m/s, at what rate does the exhaust need to be expelled to provide sufficient thrust? The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1.62 m/s2.

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?
