Because of your expert physics skills, you have been hired as an analyst in a court case involving an automobile accident. The accident involved a 2,402 kg car (car A) which approached a stationary car of mass 1,506 kg (car B). The driver of car A slammed on his brakes(locking his wheels) 18 m before he/she crashed into car B. After the collision, car A slid 19 m forward while car B slid 22 m forward (Note: the cars did not stick together upon colliding). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the locked wheels and the road was measured to be 0.78. Calculate the speed of car A, in mph, at the moment he began braking. (1 mph = 0.447 m/s) fyi: The speed limit was 55 mph.

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
