A car traveling at hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car moves forward a distance of(with respect to the road) while being brought to rest by an inflated air bag. What magnitude of force (assumed constant) acts on the passenger鈥檚 upper torso, which has a mass of?
Figure shows a 5.00 kgblock being pulled along a frictionless floor by a cord that applies a force of constant magnitude20.0Nbut with an anglethat varies with time. When angle , (a) at what rate is the acceleration of the block changing ifand (b) at what rate is the acceleration of the block changing if ?
(Hint:The angle should be in radians.)

A vertical force is applied to a block of mass m that lies on a floor. What happens to the magnitude of the normal force on the block from the floor as magnitude is increased from zero if force is (a) downward and (b) upward?
Two horizontal forces,
pull a banana split across a frictionlesslunch counter. Without using acalculator, determine which of thevectors in the free-body diagram ofFig. 5-20 best represent (a) and(b) . What is the net-force componentalong (c) the xaxis and (d) the yaxis? Into which quadrants do (e) thenet-force vector and (f) the split鈥檚 accelerationvector point?
A particle moves along an xaxis, being propelled by a variable force directed along that axis. Its position is given by role="math" localid="1657014461331" , with xin meters and tin seconds. The factor cis a constant. Atthe force on the particle has a magnitude of and is in the negative direction of the axis. What is c?
