In a physics demonstration, two teams of equal-mass students are placed on each of two identical carts. A student on Cart A pushes upon Cart B. Which of the following statements describes the resulting motion of the two carts? O Cart A and Cart B will move away from each other with the same speed. O Cart A will remain stationary; cart B will be propelled rightward. O Cart A will move backwards slightly; cart B will be propelled rightward with considerably greater momentum.

Three skydivers are plummeting earthward. They are initially holding onto each other, but then push apart. Two skydivers of mass 70 and 80 kg gain horizontal velocities of 1.2 m/s north and 1.4 m/s southeast, respectively. What is the horizontal velocity of the third skydiver, whose mass is 55 kg?
Your friend’s car has broken down, so you volunteer to push it with your own car to the nearestrepair shop, which is 2.0 km away. You carefully move your car so that the bumpers of the two carsare in contact. You then slowly accelerate to a speed of 2.5 m/s over the course of 1.0 min. The massof your friend’s car is 1.2 x 10 ^3 kg. Assume negligible friction.a) Calculate the normal force between the two bumpers. b) You then maintain a speed of 2.5 m/s. How long does it take you to reach the repair shop? c) Sketch the shape of a velocity time graph for the entire motion. d) Sketch the shape of a position time graph for the entire motion.
Object A is has more mass than object B. Which statement is true? O Object A weighs less than Object B in outer space, far from any planets, starts, etc. O Object A weighs more than Object B on the Moon. O Object A weighs less than Object B on Earth. O Object B weighs more than Object A on the Moon.
Identical twins, each with mass 55.0 kg, are on ice skates andat rest on a frozen lake, which may be taken as frictionless.Twin A is carrying a backpack of mass 12.0 kg. She throws ithorizontally at 3.00 m/s to Twin B. Neglecting any gravityeffects, what are the subsequent speeds of Twin A and Twin B?
A cat (mass of 3.63 kg) is on a sled (mass of 22.7 kg) which rests on an icy surface... so no friction. In front of this sled, there is another identical sled. The cat jumps from the first sled to the second AND immediately back to the first. Both jumps are made at a relative speed of 3.7 m/sec between the cat and the sled it is on. Calculate the final speeds of the two sleds!

. In the movie The Rocketeer, a teenager discovers a jet-powered backpack in an old barn. The backpack allows him to fly at incrediblespeeds. In one scene, however, he uses the backpack to rapidly accelerate an old pickup truck that is being chased by “bad guys.” Hedoes this by bracing his arms against the cab of the pickup and firing the backpack, giving the truck the acceleration of a drag racer. Isthe physics of this scene “Good,” “Bad,” or “Ugly”? Explain.
An F-150 SuperCrew (m = 2400 kg) travelling on Highway 66 is going at a high rate of speed, 29.0 m/s (65 mi/h). It slams into the back of a City of Gallup utility truck (parked on the shoulder) for a time of 0.87 seconds before stopping. What is the force applied by the F-150 on the utility truck?
b) Two students are watching an action film in which a car drives down a ramp onto the back of a moving lory. Both are moving at high speed, the car slightly faster than the lorry. One student complains that this is impossible because the car would not be able to stop before hitting the cab of the lorry. The car has mass 1250 kg and is moving at a speed of 28.0 m s¯ª. The lorry has mass 3500 kg and a speed of 25.5 m sª. The length of the flat back of the lorry allows a braking distance of 5.0 m. By considering both momentum and energy show that the stunt is possible, provided a minimum force of about 600 N slows the car down. You should support your explanations with calculations. Treat the situation as one in which two objects join together.
Mary is trying to stop a 5 kg bowling ball that is rolling toward her. Its horizontal velocity is 8.0 m/s when she begins to stop it. It takes her 2.0 s to stop the ball. What average force did Mary exert on the ball during this 2.0 s to stop it?
