What is its maximum acceleration after picking up four passengers and their luggage, adding an additional 400 kg of mass?

Assignment II A compact car has a maximum acceleration of 4.0 m/s2 when it carries only the driver and has a total mass of 1200 kg. What is its maximum acceleration after picking up four passengers and their luggage, adding an additional 400 kg of mass?  

Explain. Figure P4.13 shows an acceleration-versus-force graph for three objects pulled by identical rubber bands. The mass of object 2 is 0.20 kg. What are the masses of objects 1 and 3?

How long was the ball in flight? Ignoring air resistance, how much farther would it travel on the moon than on earth?

ASSIGNMENT III On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit a golf ball with a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hit the ball with a speed of 25 m/s at an angle 30° above the […]
