56 In the "before" part of Fig. 9-60, car A (mass 1100 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear-ended by car B (mass 1400 kg). Both cars then slide with locked wheels until the fric- tional force from the slick road (with a low 쌔 of 0.13) stops them, at distances dA 8.2 m and dg6.1 m. What are the speeds of (a) car A and (b) car B at the start of the sliding, just...
Chapter 07, Problem X11 An automobile has a mass of 1760 kg and a velocity of 20.2 m/s. It makes a rear-end collision with a stationary car whose mass is 2100 kg. The cars lock bumpers and skid off together with the wheels locked. (a) What is the velocity of the two cars just after the collision? (b) Find the impulse that acts on the skidding cars from just after the collision until they come to a halt. (c) If...
A car rear-ends and sticks to a truck, and this question concerns their speeds just before and just after their collision (momentum is conserved). The car has a mass of 1000kg, the truck is 3000kg. Initially, the car is going 20m/s, but the truck is only going 5 m/s (coming from a stop light) in the same direction. Calculate the final speed of the car/truck combination after the collision.
A van, stopped at a traffic light, is hit directly in the rear by another car traveling at 4 m/s. Assume that the transmission of the van is in neutral, the brakes are not being applied, and the collision is elastic. If the mass of the car is 835 kg, and the final velocity of the car is -0.4 m/s, what is the mass of the van kg and what is the final velocity of the van?
(e) A 1200 kg car is used in a crash test. The car is travelling at 25 m/s when it collides head on with a truck of 3000 kg: (1) What is the momentum of the car before the collision? (2 mark) (ii) At the point of collision, the car and the truck are locked together and immediately stop. How fast was the truck travelling? (2 marks)
A 920-kg sports car collides into the rear end of a 2100-kg SUV stopped at a red light on a flat dry level road. The bumpers lock, the brakes are locked, and the two cars skid forward 4.0 m before stopping. The police officer on scene, using her SmartPhone, looks up the coefficient of kinetic friction between rubber tires and concrete road as 0.80, she then calculates the speed of the sports car at impact. What was that speed?
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...
5. A runaway truck with a mass of 2100 kg strikes a car of mass 1350 kg, which was at rest before the collision. The car’s wheels are locked during the entire event, but the truck has no brakes, i.e., it is rolling freely on the road. The two vehicles move forward together, and the car’s tires leave skid marks for a distance of 1.5 m. Suppose that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the car’s tires and the road...
A 710- kg car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended by a 1780- kg truck moving with a speed of 16.0 m/s . Part A If the car was in neutral and its brakes were off, so that the collision is approximately elastic, find the final speed of the truck. v truck = m/s Part B Find the final speed of the car. v car v c a r = nothing.
If
you could please show the formulas used I would really appreciate
it!
You are called as an expert witness to analyze the following auto accident: Car B, of mass 1900 kg, was stopped at a red light when it was hit from behind by car A, of mass 1500 kg. The cars locked bumpers during the collision and slid to a slop with brakes locked on all wheels. Measurements of the skid marks left by the tires showed them...
