    A vehicle is traveling at 225 m/s when it strikes a hot air balloon (m=182 kg) which can be considered to be at rest relative to the ground below. After the collision, the balloon is caught on the vehicle. The collision takes place over a time interval of 4.44 * 10^-3 N. What is the average force that the balloon exerts on the vehicle during the collision?

    The driver of a 1.19 103 kg car traveling on the interstate at 35.0 m/s (nearly 80.0 mph) slams on his brakes to avoid hitting a second vehicle in front of him, which had come to rest because of congestion ahead. After the brakes are applied, a constant kinetic friction force of magnitude 7.96 103 N acts on the car. Ignore air resistance. (a) At what minimum distance should the brakes be applied to avoid a collision with the other...
