Describe the shapes of the force vs. time graphs for the force exerted by a tennis racket on a ball and the force exerted by the ball on the racket during their collision. Explain the shapes of your graphs.
An automobile of mass 1500 kg moving at 25.0 m/s collides with a truck of mass 4500 kg at rest. The bumpers of the two vehicles lock together during the crash.
Compare the force exerted by the car on the truck with that exerted by the truck on the car during the collision. Is one force larger than the other or are they equal in magnitude to each other?
What is the final velocity of the car and truck just after the collision? show your calculations.
The same collision as in Question 5 takes place, only this time the car and the truck bounce off each other completely elastically. Compare the force exerted by the car on the truck with that exerted by the truck on the car during the collision. Is one force larger than the other or are they equal in magnitude to each other?
Please remember to edit the report (insert your name - and if necessary your partners), export the report and submit it on D2L.
