A 43.3-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocity of -1.34 m/s. Her hands are in contact with the wall for 0.808 s. Ignore friction and wind resistance. Find the average force she exerts on the wall (which has the same magnitude, but opposite direction, as the force that the wall applies to her). Note that this force has direction, which you should indicate with the sign of your answer. Number i Units

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?
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 41.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 26.3 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.099 seconds, what is the magnitude of the force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 32.5 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 26.3 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.051 second, what is the magnitude of force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
A 0.065-kg tennis ball moving to the right with a speed of 15 m/s is struck by a tennis racket, causing it to move to the left with a speed of 15 m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the racquet for 0.020 s, what is the magnitude of the average force experienced by the ball?
A car with mass mc=1270kg is traveling west through an intersection with a speed of vc=14.41m/s when a truck of mass mt=1740kg traveling south at vt=6.63m/s fails to yield. The vehicles collide, they stick together, and they slide on the asphalt which has a coefficient of kinetic friction of μk=0.500. Associate the positive x direction with east and the positive y direction with north. a. Using the symbols provided in the palette below as opposed to their numeric equivalents, enter an expression, in Cartesian unit-vector notation, for the velocity of the vehicles immediately after the collision, as they begin to slide as a composite object. b. How far, in meters, will the vehicles slide after the collision?

A 50 g ball hits the ground at 19 m/s and rebounds at {v 11b} m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the ground for 200 milliseconds, What is the average force in Newtons applied by the ground on the ball during the bounce?
As part of a safety investigation, two 1400 kg cars traveling at 20 m/s are crashed into different barriers. Find the average forces exerted on (a) the car that hits a line of water barrels and takes 1.5 s to stop, and (b) the car that hits a concrete barrier and takes 0.10 s to stop.
A skater of mass 81.0 kg initially moves in a straight line at a speed of 5.10 m/s. The skater approaches a child of mass 43.5 kg, whom he lifts on his shoulders. Assuming there are no external horizontal forces, what is the skater's final velocity?
A block of mass m1 = 15.5 kg slides along a horizontal surface (with friction, μk = 0.29) a distance d = 2.65 m before striking a second block of mass m2 = 5.25 kg. The first block has an initial velocity of v = 9.25 m/s. What is the speed of m1, in m/s, right before it collides with m2? Assuming that block one stops after it collides with block two, what is block two's velocity after impact in m/s?
A block of mass m1 = 11.5 kg slides along a horizontal surface (with friction, μk = 0.21) a distance d = 2.15 m before striking a second block of mass m2 = 8.25 kg.
