A1200 kg car traveling north at 10 m/s is rear-ended by a 2000 kg truck traveling at 30 m/s. what is the total momentum before and after the collision?

What would be the result of an alpha particle coming into a magnetic field? a) the alpha particle will stop moving. b) the alpha particle will reverse its direction. c) the alpha particle will be deflected in a curve path. d) the alpha particle will continue to travel in a straight line.

Aspring is used to stop a 50-kg package which is moving down a 20º incline. the spring has a constant k = 30 kn/m and is held by cables so that it is initially compressed 50 mm. knowing that the velocity of the package is 2 m/s when it is 8 m from the spring and neglecting friction, determine the maximum additional deformation of the spring in bringing the package to rest.
