A 67.0-kg man is driving an 1100-kg car at 40.0 mph when the car hits a 300.0-kg telephone pole and comes to a sudden stop.
a. Calculate the impulse needed to stop the man.
b. If the man is not wearing a seatbelt and there is no airbag, he will hit the dashboard, which stops him in 5.0 milliseconds. Calculate the force of the dashboard on the man.
c. If the person is not wearing a seatbelt, but the airbag deploys and stops him in 50.0 milliseconds. Calculate the force of the airbag on the man.
d. How much lower force, as a percentage, does the man
experience with the airbag compared to without?

p mv Ap mv-mv 1. A 1,500 kg car is driving down the road when the brakes are applied. If the car is initially traveling at 12 m/s and slows to a stop after a time of 4 seconds, please determine: a) the change in momentum of the car b) the net force acting on the car. A race car has a mass of 1,000 kg. It accelerates from an initial velocity of 30 m/s to a final velocity of...

1. John (who is 95 kg) drives his car over an absurdly large half-circle speedbump with a radius of 5 meters. Given that his normal weight is 930 N and his apparent weight at the top of the speed-bump was 246 N, how fast did he drive over the speed bump? 2. When working in circular motion problems, what do we define as always being the positive direction? 3. When in circular motion, the net force points in what direction?...
