You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.
First, convert 60 mph to m/s:
60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s
Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.
free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)
H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m
If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.
Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.
Part A
Free fall motion
h = 3.1 m
Equation: Vf = √(2gh) = √(2*9.8 m/s^2 * 3.1 m) = 7.8 m/s
That is the only part in the question.
If an object changes direction while travelling will an object's displacement and distance travelled be different.
Some people believe that distance and displacement are simply different names for the same quantity. However, distance and displacement are not the same thing. If an object changes direction while travelling, the total distance travelled is greater than the displacement between those two points.
The magnitude of the displacement is always less than or equal to the distance because it is measured along the shortest path between two points.
When the direction of displacement does not change, the magnitude of the displacement and distance are the same. When a body travels in a straight line, for example, its displacement and distance are the same.
