A 67.0 kg person is riding in a car moving at 19.0 m/s when the car runs into a bridge abutment. (Assume the initial velocity is in the positive direction.) (a) Calculate the average force (in N) on the person if he is stopped by a padded dashboard that compresses an average of 1.00 cm. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) N (b) Calculate the average force (in N) on the person if he is stopped by an air bag that compresses an average of 15.0 cm. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) N

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the velocity is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. how far is earth from the sun? i know how to get to d = (3 x 10^8 m/s)(498 sec). i just don't know how to get from there to the answer being 1.5 x 10^11 m.

He viscosities of several liquids are being compared. all the liquids are poured down a slope with equal path lengths. the liquid with the highest viscosity will

Samir watches a 100-minute movie on his spaceship. maria's spaceshipe flies in the same direction as samir's spaceship but she observes his move to last 125 minutes and his spaceship to be 40 m long. how long does samir observe his own spaceship to be? according to an observer on earth, planet x is stationary. maria and samir depart earth on their spaceships at the same time, each flying at 0.5c. maria flies toward planet x and samir flies in the opposite direction. according to maria, her voyage to planet x takes 9 years. how many years does marias voyage take according to samir?
