Question

Two identical cars of equal mass, each traveling at 60 miles per hour, collide head-on. In this question you will estimate the net force on one car. (Feel free to Google the standard mass and length of a car)

a.) Assuming constant acceleration (or colloquially, deceleration), estimate how far one car’s center of mass moves during the collision and then calculate the acceleration of one of the cars during the collision?

b.) Calculate the duration of the crash, and the net force on one car during the collision.

Explanation / Answer

i am not getting the information if you provide correct information i can help to you

i think the net force action on the car is zero because they are identical mass and having same constant acceleration

so net acceleration is zero
