Multiple Select

How could you decrease the force on an object in a collision?

(Choose two options.)

• increase collision time

• decrease collision time

• increase change in momentum

• decrease change in momentum

Multiple Choice

Most modern vehicles have padded dashboards. This reduces collision injuries by...

• reducing the driver's change in momentum

• increasing the driver's change in momentum

• increasing the force of impact

• increasing the time of impact

Δp = FΔt

You are in a 15,000 kg car traveling at +12 m/s and come to a stop. What is the force required to stop the vehicle if you collide with the vehicle in front of you and the collision takes 0.050 seconds?

Include units, direction, and round for sig figs.

Δp = FΔt

You are in a 15,000 kg car traveling at 12 m/s. A semi-truck (36,000 kg) is in the next lane traveling at the same speed. How much time will it take the semi to stop if they apply 30,000 N of force? 

Multiple Choice

A 17,000 kg car was traveling down the highway. If it took 7.0 seconds to stop with a force of -24,000 N, what was the initial velocity?

• +9.9 m/s

• +170,000 m/s

• +1.4 m/s

• +0.20 m/s

Fill in the Blank

A force of 11 N is exerted on a cart for 2.5 s, if the mass of the cart is 4.4 kg and the cart is initially at rest, calculate the final speed.
