a 925-kg pick up decelerates to rest from a speed of 97.5 km/h in a distance 125 m. Suppose the pick up is initially traveling in the positive direction. suppose instead of breaking that the pick up hits a concrete abutment at full speed is brought up to a stop at 2.0 m. Calculate the force in newtons exerted on the pickup in this case.

A baseball catcher is performing a stunt for a television commercial. He will catch a baseball (mass 145 g) dropped from a height of 60.0 m above his glove. His glove stops the ball in 0.0100 s. What is the force exerted by his glove on the ball?
Why is a 10-m fall onto concrete far more dangerous than a 10-m fall onto water?
A 65-kg person jumps from the first floor window of a burning building and lands almost vertically on the ground with a horizontal velocity of 3 m/s and vertical velocity of -9 m/s. Upon impact with the ground he is brought to rest in a short time. The force experienced by his feet depends on whether he keeps his knees stiff or bends them. Find the force on his feet in each case. a. First find the impulse on the person from the impact on the ground. Calculate both its magnitude and direction. b. Find the average force on the feet if the person keeps his leg stiff and straight and his center of mass drops by only 1 cm vertically and 1 cm horizontally during the impact. c. Find the average force on the feet if the person bends his legs throughout the impact so that his center of mass drops by 50 cm vertically and 5 cm horizontally during the impact. d. Compare the results of part (b) and (c), and draw conclusions about which way is better. You will need to find the time the impact lasts by making reasonable assumptions about the deceleration. Although the force is not constant during the impact, working with constant average force for this problem is acceptable.
A 10-kg box initially at rest is pulled to the right along a frictionless horizontal surface by a horizontal force of 60N, determine the speed of the box after it has moved 2.0 m.
A 20-Mg train is traveling at a speed of 50 m/s. But the driver noticed that the bridge300-m ahead is missing. At once, he pulls the break, thus applying a frictionalresistance of Ff = 1000 N. At the same time Super Botting pushes back the train witha force of Fs = [(123)d + 100] N, where d is the distance that the train travels before stopping.Determine the stopping distance d, and mention whether or not Superbotting wouldbe able to save the train.

An office worker smacks a table, bringing his hand to rest in 0.0025 seconds from an initial speed of 4.00 m/s. How much force is exerted on the table, taking the effective mass of his forearm and hand to be 1.5 kg? (Answer in 1 decimal place, in kilo-newtons, no unit)
As a protest against the umpire's calls, a baseball pitcher throws a ball straight up into the air at a speed of 21.5 m/s. In the process, he moves his hand through a distance of 1.35 m. If the ball has a mass of 0.150 kg, find the force he exerts on the ball to give it this upward speed.
