In drag racing, acceleration is more important than speed, and therefore drag racers are designed to provide high accelerations. Suppose a drag racer has a mass of 1250 kg and accelerates at a constant rate of 16.5 m/s2. How large
is the unbalanced force acting on the racer?

An electric current is flowing through the cord below. what will happen to this current if a magnet is brought near the cord? a. the electric current will stop flowing. b. it will exert a force on the voltage. c. the resistance of the wire will decrease. d. it will exert a force on the electric current.

What is the primary force that suspension bridges use cables to hold their spans up? a. tension force b. resistance force c. normal force d. elastic force e. applied force

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
