9. 2 kg glider is traveling toward the right with a speed of 1 m/s on an air track. A 3 kg glider is traveling on the same track to the left at 2 m/s. If they collide and stick together what speed will they move with?

10. A car with a mass of 1000 kg is stopped at a stop sign. The car accelerates to 20 m/s in 5 seconds. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car during those 5 seconds? (b) How far does the car travel during those 5 seconds? (c) What is the magnitude of net force on the car while it is accelerating?

11. A skydiver jumps from a plane, 1 second after opening her parachute the resistive force on her has a magnitude of 1200 N. If the skydiver has a weight of 800 N (and therefore a mass of 80 kg), what are the magnitude and direction of her acceleration?

12. A compact car with a mass of 1200 kg traveling at 20 m/s hits a stationary SUV. The SUV has a mass of 2400 kg. (a) Which vehicle experiences the greater force of impact? Explain your answer. (b) Which vehicle has a greater acceleration during the collision? Explain your answer. (c) Explain what additional information is needed to determine the average force on the compact car during the collision.

Mass m = 0.1 kg moves to the right with speed v = 0.54 m/s and collides with an equal mass initially at rest. After this inelastic collision the system retains a fraction = 0.9 of its original kinetic energy. If the masses remain in contact for 0.01 secs while colliding, what is the average force in N between the masses during the collision? Hints: All motion is in 1D. Ignore friction between the masses and the horizontal surface. You...
