A skater of mass m = 60 kg is coasting along a smooth, level road with initial velocity v = given by: 3 m/s East. A sudden gust of wind exerts a time-varying force on him F(t) = ( 30 N) (1 – t) East | where t is measured in seconds. The gust of wind lasts from t = 0.0 to t = 2.0 seconds. What is the skater's speed at 2.0 seconds?

Part of Newton's 2nd Law says the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. So, if you were pushing a bucket along the floor, and someone dropped a rock (that has the same mass as the bucket) into the bucket, it's acceleration would O be doubled (increased by factor of 2) O be halved (decreased by a factor of 2) O wouldn't change O be quadrupled (increased by a factor of 4)

In a given vacuum without gravity a ping-pong ball was travelling at a straight path to the East at a speed of 20 cm/sec. A force producing a velocity of 30 cm/sec to the North hit the ball that changed its velocity and direction. Find its new velocity and direction.
(a) Find the speed at which Superman (mass=90.0 kg) must fly into a train (mass = 17485 kg) traveling at 65.0 km/hr to stop it. Running into the train at that speed would severely damage both train and passengers. (b) Calculate the minimum time Superman must take to stop the train if the passengers experience an average horizontal force of 0.410 their own weight. (c) How far does the train then travel while being slowed to a stop?
