You've just put a new wood floor in your house. An object will dent the flooring if the stress--the force divided by the area--exerted by the object is great enough.
A) Find the stress produced by a 50 kg woman in high-heeled shoes (assume a circular heel pad 0.50 cm in diameter) with all of her weight on one heel.
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
B) Find the stress produced by a 5000 kg African elephant (assume a circular contact area of 40 cm in diameter for one foot) standing on all four feet.
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?
