Answer:
0.775 m
Explanation:
As the car collides with the bumper, all the kinetic energy of the car (K) is converted into elastic potential energy of the bumper (U):

where we have
is the spring constant of the bumper
x is the maximum compression of the bumper
is the mass of the car
is the speed of the car
Solving for x, we find the maximum compression of the spring:

Answer:
true
Explanation:
Here we have assumed that increasing the mass of a glove will increase the surface area.
Injury is caused by the application of pressure at a point on the body. The application of pressure takes place via the area of the gloves. Pressure is given by

where
F = Force
A = Area to which the force is applied
So, a bigger glove will increase the surface area and reduce the pressure resulting in a lower chance of injury.
Hence, the statement is true.
