You and some friends visit the Florida State Fair and decide to play a game. To play the game you must slide a metal hockey-type puck up a wooden ramp so that it drops through a hole at the top of the ramp. Your prize, if you win, is a large, stuffed gorilla. You realize the secret to winning is giving the puck just enough velocity at the bottom of the ramp to make it to the hole. You estimate the distance from the bottom of the ramp to the hole at about 3 m, and the ramp appears to be inclined with an angle of 10o from the horizontal. You just got out of physics class and recall the coefficient of static friction between steel and wood is 0.1 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between steel and wood is 0.08. The mass of the puck is about 1 kg. You decide to impress your friends by sliding the puck at the precise speed on the first try so as to land it in the hole. You slide the puck at 2.0 m/sec. Do you win the stuffed poodle? Let g = 10 m/s2. Note: A slightly too hard throw will win since your aim is so good the puck would drop in the hole.

Consider two less-than-desirable options. in the first you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into an identical car also going 30 mph. in the second option you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into a stationary brick wall. in neither case does your car bounce off the thing it hits, and the collision time is the same in both cases. which of these two situations would result in the greatest impact force?
