In the Tough Mon Competition, very strong men are challenged to push or pull extremely large and heavy objects to test their strength in one such challenge, they were asked
to push one of two rail cars, an engine car and a box car. The data tables show one man's results
Look over the data table and answer the questions below.
Force Applied by the
Tough Man
Did it move the
engine car?
No
1000 Nowtons
2000 Newtons
No
13000 Newtons
Yos
No
A. Why couldn't the strong man move the box car with a force of 3000 Newtons?
Make sure to include Newton's 2nd Law in your explanation
B. What could be done to move the boxcar?
C. Another student claims that during the competition, the sum of the forces on the boxcar was ON
What evidence is the student using to make this claim? Be sure to explain your thinking

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

High schoolphysics 5+3 pts a neon light consists of a glass tube with metal wires at each end. when connected to a high-voltage source, the gas glows. if a fly lands on the glass tube, what will most likely happen? a) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass conducts any free electrons back into the gas. b) electrons will flow directly from the metal wires along the glass and shock the fly. c) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass insulates it from the electrons in the gas and the metal. d) electrons that are moving through the gas will be conducted through the glass and shock the fly.

It's a snowy day and you're pulling a friend along a level road on a sled. you've both been taking physics, so she asks what you think the coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is. you've been walking at a steady 1.5m/s, and the rope pulls up on the sled at a 32 ∘ angle. you estimate that the mass of the sled, with your friend on it, is 65 kg and that you're pulling with a force of 80 n .
