A 75.0-kg person is riding in a car moving at 20.0 m/s when the car runs into a bridge abutment (see the following figure). a. Calculate the average force on the person if he is stopped by a padded dashboard that compresses an average of 1.00 cm. b. Calculate the average force on the person if he is stopped by an air bag that compresses an average of 15.0 cm.

A 13.0 kg stone slides down a snow-covered hill (Figure 1), leaving point A at a speed of 12.0 m/s. There is no friction on the hill between points A and B, but there is friction on the level ground at the bottom of the hill, between B and the wall. After entering the rough horizontal region, the stone travels 100 m and then runs into a very long, light spring with force constant 2.10 N/m. The coefficients of kinetic and static friction between the stone and the horizontal ground are 0.20 and 0.80 , respectively. Figure 1 of 1 Part A What is the speed of the stone when it reaches point B? Express your answer in meters per second to three significant figures. v2 = m/s Submit Request Answer Part B How far will the stone compress the spring? Express your answer in meters to three significant figures. x = Submit Request Answer Part C Will the stone move again after it has been stopped by the spring? yes no

A 17-g bullet is shot vertically into an 5−kg block. The block lifts upward 5.0 mm (see the figure). The bullet penetrates the block and comes to rest in it in a time interval of 0.0010 s. Assume the force on the bullet is constant during penetration and that air resistance is negligible. The initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to (A) 36 J (B) 72 J (C) 8.3×10−4 J (D) 49 J (E) 0.25 J

Test the following claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, critical value(s), conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Tests of older baseballs showed that when dropped 22ft onto a concrete surface, they bounced an average of 237.1 cm. In a test of 50 new baseballs, the bounce heights had a mean of 239.1 cm. Assume that the standard deviation of bounce heights of all new baseballs is 4.2 cm. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the new baseballs have bounce heights with a mean different from 237.1 cm. Are the new baseballs different? What are the null and alternative hypotheses? A. H0 : µ ≤ 237.1 cm H1 : µ > 237.1 cm C. H0 : µ = 237.1 cm H1 : µ = 237.1 cm B. H0 : µ = 237.1 cm H1 : µ 6= 237.1 cm D. H0 : µ ≥ 237.1 cm H1 : µ < 237.1 cm What is the value of the test statistic? z = (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the critical value(s) of z. z = (Round to two decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.) (1) H0. There (2) sufficient evidence to support the claim that the new baseballs are different. (1) Reject (2) is Fail to reject is not
