Determine expression for the distance the cars will move until they stop if the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the cars' tires and the road is about the same for both cars.
Express your answer in terms of the variables m1, m2, v1, v2, μk, and appropriate constants.

Two cars are approaching a perpendicular intersection without a stop sign. Car 1 has a mass mi =700kg and is heading north at v1 =15m/s. Car 2 has mass m2 =600kg and is heading west at an unknown speed V2. The two cars collide at the intersection and stick together as a result of the collision. The police report stated that after the collision, the two cars moved together in a direction 40° west of north and stopped after sliding...

A 1890 kg car traveling at 13.3 m/s collides with a 2970 kg car
that is initally at rest at a stoplight. The cars stick together
and move 1.96 m before friction causes them to stop. Determine the
coefficient of kinetic friction between the cars and the road,
assuming that the negative acceleration is constant and all wheels
on both cars lock at the time of impact.

1. A freak ice storm hits Syracuse in April, causing cars to slide around on the streets. A car of mass m traveling due south at a velocity v1 collides with a car of mass M traveling due east at a velocity v2 in the middle of an icy intersection (where there is essentially no friction). After the collision they stick together.
A block of mass m1 = 1.10 kg moving at v1 = 1.20 m/s undergoes a completely inelastic collision with a stationary block of mass m2 = 0.900 kg . The blocks then move, stuck together, at speed v2. After a short time, the two-block system collides inelastically with a third block, of mass m3 = 2.40 kg , which is initially at rest. The three blocks then move, stuck together, with speed v3. Assume that the blocks slide without...

A 2170 kg car traveling at 12.2 m/s collides with a 2940 kg car that is initally at rest at a stoplight. The cars stick together and move 2.02 m before friction causes them to stop. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cars and the road, assuming that the negative acceleration is constant and all wheels on both cars lock at the time of impact.
The driver of one car has a mass of 1200 kg and is traveling at 10 m/s westward when he collides with another car with a mass of 2000 kg that is traveling 15 m/s northward. The two cars stick together after colliding. Please show all work. a) What is the total momentum before the collision and after the collision? b) What are the speed and direction of the cars after the collision? c) If coefficient of kinetic friction between...
A block of massm1 = 1.30kg moving at v1 = 2.00m/s undergoes a completely inelastic collision with a stationary block of mass m2 = 0.100kg . The blocks then move, stuck together,at speed . After a short time, the two-block system collides inelastically with a third block, of mass m3 = 2.60kg , which is initially at rest. The three blocksthen move, stuck together, with speed v3 .

A car is traveling down a hill that makes an angle of 17° with the horizontal. The driver applies her brakes, and the wheels lock so that the car begins to skid. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is μK = 0.53. (a) Find the acceleration of the car. (Take down the ramp to be the positive direction) (b) How long does the car take to skid to a stop if its initial speed is...
