The Earth takes (365 and 1/4) days to orbit the sun. That's the length of our 'year'.
Since it's not really possible to make our calendar a quarter of a day longer every year, we make the calendar a <u><em>whole</em></u> day longer every 4 years.
So "Leap years" make up for the extra one-fourth day the Earth takes to orbit the sun.
Hi there!
The maximum deformation of the bumper will occur when the car is temporarily at rest after the collision. We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.
Initially, we only have kinetic energy:
KE = Kinetic Energy (J)
m = mass (1060 kg)
v = velocity (14.6 m/s)
Once the car is at rest and the bumper is deformed to the maximum, we only have spring-potential energy:
k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)
x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)
Since energy is conserved:
We can simplify and solve for 'x'.
Plug in the givens and solve.

Impulse = Force * times and also Impulse = change in momentum.
Given that the mass does not change, change if momentum = mass * (final velocity - initial velocity)
Given that you know mass and initial velocity (which is the velicity before the cart hits the wall) you need the final velocity (which is the velocity after the cart hits the wall).
Answer: the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.
At 60 mph. The 18-wheeler is moving slower, so its molecules have less kinetic energy.
