    Physics Collision - A vw strikes a bmw?

    A BMW of mass 1.5 103 kg is traveling at 42 m/s. It approaches a 1.1 103 kg Volkswagen going 27 m/s in the same direction and strikes it in the rear. Neither driver applies the brakes. Neglect the relatively small frictional forces on the cars due to the road and due to air resistance. If the...

    physics forces problem help quiz tomm!?

    A student was given two forces vectors to study in the lab. When the vectors are added the result was Fr= 1.56 N at 144 degrees. If the first vector is F2= 1.05 N at 223 degrees, what is the magnitude and direction of the second force vector? Angles reported in your answer should not be measured...
