ost of us know intuitively that in a head-on collision between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Why is this? Many people imagine that the collision force exerted on the car is much greater than that exerted on the truck. To substantiate this view, they point out that the car is crushed, whereas the truck is only dented. This idea of unequal forces, of course, is false; Newton's third law tells us that both objects are acted upon by forces of the same magnitude. The truck suffers less damage because it is made of stronger metal. But what about the two drivers? Do they experience the same forces? To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is initially moving at 6.90 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on collision. Each driver has mass 70.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4,000 kg for the truck. If the collision time is 0.100 s, what…

Consider the woman doing push-ups in the figure. She has a mass of 51.3 kg, CG land the distance from her feet to her center of mass is 0.85 m, while the distance from her feet to her hands is 1.7 m. a Freaction b Part (a) What force in newtons should the woman in the figure exert on the floor with each hand to do a push-up? Assume that she moves up at a constant speed. Part (b) The triceps muscle at the back of her upper arm has an effective lever arm of 1.25 cm, and she exerts force on the floor at a horizontal distance of 16 cm from the elbow joint.
