What is the weight of a car, if the car is able to get 32 miles per gallon traveling at a steady speed of 70 mph on a level road, with no wind? The car has a drag coefficient of 0.22 and a frontal area of 15 square feet and we assume the energy delivery of gasoline is 20% with a heat of combustion/energy content of gasoline being 124,000 Btu/gallon.

A truck with a mass of 1800 kg traveling 32 miles per hour collides with a car (mass = 1100 kg) sitting at a stop sign. The two lock together and both cars slide into the intersection. Both drivers slam on the brakes in desperation. The coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.58. a. What is the momentum of each car before the collision? b. What is their combined momentum after the collision? Justify your answer....
