A car has a crumple zone that is 0.80 m (80 cm) long. In this car, the distance from the dummy to the steering wheel is 0.50 m. The car has a mass of 1,600 kg and the dummy has a mass of 75 kg. At the time of the crash, the car has a speed of 18 m/s. Based on the work-energy theorem, what is the smallest possible force that the dummy could experience during the crash?
A. –9.35 kN
B. –18.7 kN

Arotating space station is said to create “artificial gravity”—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. the outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. if the space station is 200 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an “artificial gravity” of 9.80 m/s^{2} 2 at the rim?
