What average force is required to stop a 1400 kg car in 8.0 s if the car is traveling at 85 km/h? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the direction of the force is in the direction of the initial velocity and negative value if the direction of the force is in the direction opposite of the initial velocity.

According to a simplified model of a mammalian heart, at each pulse, approximately 20 g of blood is accelerated from 0.26 m/s to 0.35 m/s during a period of 0.10 s. What is the magnitude of the force exerted by the heart muscle? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. F= ______ units I got 0.02N but it is wrong.
We often think of friction and air resistance as forces that we want to minimize because they can hinder the motion of an object. But they are not always undesirable, and in fact, can be an essential element in a machine or process. Identify one or two applications that depend on friction and air resistance. Explain how friction or air resistance works in those situations and what would happen if there were no friction or air resistance. Your initial post should be 75-150 words in length and is due on Sunday.
The coefficient of friction, u, can be determined in an experiment by measuring the force F required to move a mass m. When F is measured and m is known, the coefficient of friction can be calculated by: H- F/(mg) -9.81 m/s). friction Results from measuring F in six tests are given in the table below. Determine the coefficient of friction in cach test, and the average from all tests. Test Mass m (kg) Force F(N) 2 4. 3 4. 2 10 20 50 12.5 23.5 30 61 117 294
A collision happened between two cars of equal mass of 1500.0 kg. The first car was running at 90 km/hr going east while the other car was running at 80 km/hr going west. If both cars were stuck after collision, determine what velocity did the crashed cars moved?
Zach, whose mass is 70 kg, is in an elevator going down at 6.0 m/s. The elevator takes 2.0 s to brake to a stop at the bottom floor. What is his apparent weight, in Newtons? Use g = 10.0 m/s². Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
A crate is pushed across the floor with a force of 522 N. If the crate has a normal force of 758N, what is the value of mu? Do NOT include units Round to the hundredths place
A 500N block is resting on an inclined plane and is subjected to a constant force of 600N acting parallel to the inclined plane. After the block has moved 3m from rest along the inclined plane, the force 600N is removed. The inclined plane has a slope of 3 vertical to 4 horizontal. Coefficient of friction is 0.20. Solve for the velocity of the block, in m/s, when the force 600N was removed. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Use vectors to solve the following problems. Both cars weigh 1500 kg. Use the scale 1 cm = 1,000 kg x m/s. Assume all collisions to be sticking. Draw a picture represents the problem too. The first car is travelling at 20 m/s east. The second car is travelling at 30m/s north. Using vectors draw to scale the component vectors and the resultant from their collision. Then solve using your trigonometric functions. Also: use Pythagorean Theorem (to find magnitude/resultant), inversed tangent (to find direction/angle) because vectors = magnitude & direction, and use formula: momentum = mv(before) = mv(after)
The average impact force in a collision is inversely proportional to the impact distance or time. This is the reason that cars have bumpers to increase the impact distance in a collision to reduce the impact force hence its damage to people. Can you derive or find the formula that supports the above statement?
