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)?

Suppose water is leaking from a tank through a circular hole of area ah at its bottom. when water leaks through a hole, friction and contraction of the stream near the hole reduce the volume of water leaving the tank per second to cah 2gh , where c (0 < c < 1) is an empirical constant. a tank in the form of a right-circular cone standing on end, vertex down, is leaking water through a circular hole in its bottom. (assume the removed apex of the cone is of negligible height and volume.) (a) suppose the tank is 20 feet high and has radius 8 feet and the circular hole has radius 2 inches. the differential equation governing the height h in feet of water leaking from a tank after t seconds is dh dt = − 5 6h3/2 . if the height of the water is initially 8 feet, how long will it take the tank to empty? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

Asubject in a clinical research trial experiences a serious, unanticipated adverse drug experience. how should the investigator proceed, with respect to the irb, after the discovery of the adverse event occurrence? a. do not report the adverse drug experience to the irb since it is a common adverse experience. b. report the adverse drug experience to the irb only if there are several other occurrences. c. report the adverse drug experience as part of the continuing review report. d. report the adverse drug experience in a timely manner, in keeping with the irb's policies and procedures, using the forms or the mechanism provided by the irb.
