2. While driving down a road in your car that has a mass of 1300 kg, you notice that your speed is 25 m/s. After going a distance of 1.0 km, you notice your speed is then 27 m/s. What was the magnitude of the force responsible for the acceleration over that distance, assuming that the acceleration was constant?

The front 1.20 m of a 1 400-kg car is designed as a crumple zone that collapses to absorb the shock of a collision. If a car traveling 25.0 m/s stops uniformly in 1.20 m, (a) how long does the collision last, (b) what is the magnitude of the average force on the car, and (c) what is the acceleration of the car? Express the acceleration as a multiple of the acceleration of gravity.

A block of mass m1= 10 kg is on a frictionless table to the left of a second block of mass m2 = 24 kg, attached by a horizontal string (Figure WU4.13).

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass gains or losses to adjust diets. One way to do this is to exert a known force on an astronaut and measure the acceleration produced. Suppose a net external force of 50.0 N is exerted and the astronaut's acceleration is measured to be 0.893 m/s2. (a) Calculate her mass. (b) By exerting a force on the astronaut, the vehicle in which they orbit experiences an equal and opposite force. Discuss how this would affect the measurement of the astronaut's acceleration. Propose a method in which recoil of the vehicle is avoided.
As a horse and wagon are accelerating From rest, the horse exerts a force of 400 N on the wagon (Figure 2.56), Illustrating Newton's third law, the wagon exerts an equal and opposite force of 400 N. Because the two forces are in opposite directions, why don't they cancel each other and produce zero acceleration (i.e., no motion)?
An object of mass m = 5.00 kg, attached to a spring scale, rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface as shown in Figure P6.14.

(b) What constant reading will the spring scale show if the car moves with constant velocity?
