When a spacecraft collides with a planet, it is not necessary for them to actually touch each other, but when a car collides with a truck, the car and the truck must touch. Explain the difference between these two types of collisions.
Curling is a game similar to lawn bowling except it is played on ice and instead of rolling balls on the lawn, stones are slid along ice. A curler slides a stone across a sheet of ice with an initial speed vi in the positive x direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the stone and the curling lane is k. Express your answers in terms of vi, k, and g only. a. What is the acceleration of the stone as it slides down the lane? b. What distance does the curling stone travel?

A 1700 kg car is driving down a highway at a constant velocity when a deer jumps out onto the road 59.6 m ahead. The coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road is 0.21. Calculate the initial velocity of the car if it is able to stop just before hitting the deer. (You do not need to account for reaction time of the driver. Assuming the car is breaking the entire 59.6 m distance and that friction is the only force stopping the car.) v0 = m/s

It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.35. a.)Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
A 1000 kg car and a 2000 kg truck are both driving at the same speed. The both have tires with the same coefficient of friction. Which of the following statements about their minimum stopping distances is true? The truck can stop quicker than the car because it has more mass, and therefore more friction They have the same stopping distance, because their acceleration is independent of their mass. O It is impossible to know which can stop quicker without knowing their speed The car can stop quicker than the truck because it has less mass, and therefore less inertia
A 2000kg car travelling at 10.0m/s collides with a 3000kg car that is initially a rest at a stoplight. The cars stick together and move 2.00m before friction cause them to stop. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cars and the road, assuming that the negative acceleration is constant and all wheels of both cars lock at the time of impact
