At a race track, a car of mass 2000 kg crashes into a concrete wall at a speed of 77 m/s.

a. if the car comes to a stop when it this the wall, what is the magnitude of the impulse applied to the car?

b. to make things safer, the race track installs barrels of sand along the wall. if the car crashes into the barrels, the time it takes to stop will be increased by a factor of 3, as compared with hitting a concrete wall. how does this affect the force applied to the car during a crash? explain your answer using the appropriate equation.

Materials will have different energies associated with the electrons inside them. this is related to how strongly bound they are by their work function. if we sandwich a material with a very low energy between two materials with a high energy, we create a trap for an electron. if this trap is very narrow in one direction in comparison to the others, this is approximately a 1-dimensional box that confines the electron. what is the lowest energy of an electron in the box if the thinnest direction across the materials is 4.81 nm?
