A 960-kg sports car collides into the rear end of a 2100-kg SUV stopped at a red light. The bumpers lock, the brakes are locked, and the two cars skid forward 2.9 m before stopping. The police officer, estimating the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and road to be 0.80, calculates the speed of the sports car at impact. What was the speed sports car at impact?

(2) (a) you have a simple circuit that consists of only a battery (Ξ΄vbat=1.5v) and two resistors with resistance r1=10Ο‰ and r2=5Ο‰, connected in series with each other. what is the current running through the battery? (b) you re-arrange your circuit so now r2 is attached in parallel to r1 rather than in series. what is the current running through the battery? (c) you add an additional resistor r3=7Ο‰ on the same branch as r2. what is the current running through the battery? (d) what is the power dissipated in r3?
