A 2.00 1O3-kg car moving cast at 10.0 m/s collides with a 3.00 103-kg car moving north. The cars stick together and move as a unit after the collision, at an angle of 40.0 north of east and a speed of 5.22 m/s. Find the speed and direction of the 3.00 103-kg car before the collision.
A block with mass m1 hangs from a rope that is extended over an ideal pulley and attached to a second block with mass m2 that sits on a ledge. The second block is also connected to a third block with mass m3 by a second rope that hangs over a second ideal pulley as shown in Figure P5.47. If the friction between the ledge and the second block is negligible, m1 = 3.00 kg, m2 = 5.00 kg, and m3 = 8.00 kg, find the magnitude of the tension in each rope and the acceleration of each block.

A block with mass m1 hangs from a rope that is extended over an ideal pulley and attached to a second block with mass m2 that sits on a ledge slanted at an angle of 20 (Fig. P5.49). Suppose the system of blocks is initially motionless and held still, and then it is released. If m1 = 7.00 kg and m2 = 2.00 kg, find the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks, assuming there is no friction between the second block and the ledge. FIGURE P5.49 Problems 49 and 50.
A 1.00-kg glider on a horizontal air track is pulled by a string at an angle . The taut string runs over a pulley and is attached to a hanging object of mass 0.500 kg as shown in Figure P5.40.

An airplane of mass 1.50 104 kg is in level flight, initially moving at 60.0 m/s. The resistive force exerted by air on the airplane has a magnitude of 4.0 104 N. By Newtons third law, if the engines exert a force on the exhaust gases to expel them out of the back of the engine, the exhaust gases exert a force on the engines in the direction of the airplanes travel. This force is called thrust, and the value of the thrust in this situation is 7.50 104 N. (a) Is the work done by the exhaust gases on the airplane during some time interval equal to the change in the airplanes kinetic energy? Explain. (b) Find the speed of the airplane after it has traveled 5.0 102 m.
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.

The third graders are on one side of a schoolyard, and the fourth graders are on the other. They are throwing snowballs at each other. Between them, snowballs of various masses are moving with different velocities as shown in Figure OQ5.3. Rank the snowballs (a) through (e) according to the magnitude of the total force exerted on each one. Ignore air resistance. If two snowballs rank together, make that fact clear.
Two figure skaters are coasting in the same direction, with the leading skater moving at 5.5 m/s and the trailing skating moving at 6.2 m/s. When the trailing skater catches up with the leading skater, he picks her up without applying any horizontal forces on his skates. If the trailing skater is 50 heavier than the 50-kg leading skater, what is their speed after he picks her up?
Two boxes of fruit on a frictionless horizontal surface are connected by a light string as in Figure P4.85, where m1 = 10.0 kg and m2 = 20.0 kg. A force of 50.0 N is applied to the 20.0-kg box.
