A 2600 kg car traveling to the north is slowed down uniformly from an initial velocity of 30.5 m/s by a 7670 N braking force acting opposite the car’s motion.
(a) What is the car’s velocity after 1.87 s?Answer in units of m/s.

A Bullet with a mass of 5.2 grams is fired out of a rifle. The bullet’s initial velocity is 0 m/sec. Its muzzle velocity is 850 m/sec (in the direction the barrel is pointing). The barrel is 60 cm long. Assume that the acceleration inside the barrel is the same for the entire length of the barrel. What is the acceleration in m/sec2 and what is the time it takes for the bullet to travel down the barrel? (You must solve two simultaneous equations. vf = vi + at ; s= vit + 1/2at2)
