. The relationship among mass, force, and acceleration is explained by
a. Newton's first law of motion
c. Newton's third law of motion
b. Newton's second law of motion d. the conservation of momentum

On a cold day, when the air temperature is 0°c, you empty your lungs and take a deep breath, filling your lungs with 4.2 l of air. if you hold your breath until the temperature of the air in your lungs reaches 37°c, what is the volume of the air in your lungs at that point, assuming the pressure does not change?

Aboxcar traveling at 12 m/s approaches a string of 5 identical boxcars sitting stationary on the track. the moving boxcar collides and links with the stationary cars and they all move off together along the track. what is the final speed of the cars immediately after the collision? (you may take the mass of each boxcar to be 18,537 kg.)

You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. you are 110m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. assume that your reaction time is 0.50s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration. how far are you from the intersection when you begin to apply the brakes? what acceleration will bring you to rest right at the intersection? how long does it take you to stop after the light changes? the known values: vi=20m/s xi=110m t=.50s vf=0m/s xf=0m a=?
