We will examine the physics of collisions from the point of view of the traffic cop situation you are called to the site of a collision between a small car and a half ton truck on a lonely country road. you are given the following information a) on clean dry pavement at a temperature of 20 c, the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.600 on locked wheels. b) the truck has left a skid mark that is 25.7 m long c) the car has left a skid mark that is 20.3 m long d) the estimated mass of the truck and contents was 1250 kg e) the estimated mass of the car and contents was 750 kg f the truck's skid mark is due north g) the car's skid mark is due east h) the debris travelled 10.6 m 18.4 degrees e of n i) the collisions appear to have been completely inelastic j) the speed limit was 90 km/hr k) miraculously no one was seriously hurt from this data can you work out the speed of the two vehicles prior to breaking (i. e. before the skid marks)?

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass

A3030 cmcm wrench is used to loosen a bolt with a force applied 0.30.3 mm from the bolt. it takes 6060 nn to loosen the bolt when the force is applied perpendicular to the wrench. how much force would it take if the force was applied at a 3030 degree angle from perpendicular? a 3030 cmcm wrench is used to loosen a bolt with a force applied 0.30.3 mm from the bolt. it takes 6060 nn to loosen the bolt when the force is applied perpendicular to the wrench. how much force would it take if the force was applied at a 3030 degree angle from perpendicular?
