Question
Two automobiles of equal mass approach an intersection. One vehicle is traveling with velocity 14.0 m/s toward the east and the other is traveling north with speed v2i. Neither driver sees the other. The vehicles collide in the intersection and stick together, leaving parallel skid marks at an angle of 65.0° north of east. Determine the initial speed v2i of the northward-moving vehicle.
m/s
The speed limit for both roads is 35 mi/h and the driver of the northward-moving vehicle claims he was within the speed limit when the collision occurred. Is he telling the truth?
YesNo

By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocity of -1.91 m/s. Her hands are in contact with the wall for 1.30 s. Ignore friction and wind resistance. Find the average force she exerts on the wall (which has the same magnitude, but opposite direction, as the force that the wall applies to her). Note that this force has direction, which you should indicate with the sign of your answer.
