A bus hits a bug and the bug splatters on the windshield, which force is greater?

Physics
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]2 years ago

The forces acting on a body and the type of motion that results are given by Newton's three Laws of motion

  • The <u>force </u>of the bus is <u>the same</u> as reactive force of the bug

Reason:

According to Newton's third Law of motion, given that the bug collides

with the bus, the force with which the bus hits the bug is equal to the

reactive force of the bug on the on the bus

According to Newton's second Law of motion, force is equal to the rate of

change of the momentum produced

The impulse of the force of the bus on the bug is given as follows;

F·Δt = m·(v₂ - v₁)

Given that the force of the bus is large, the change in momentum, m·(v₂ - v₁),

is also large such that the parts of the bug are split by the rapid change in

velocity, and the bug splatters on the windshield, and is then carried along

on the trip,

The equally large reactive force of the bug, is such that the bug splatters

due its magnitude

Therefore, the correct response is that <u>the forces are the same</u>

A spring has a spring constant of 81 N · m−1. What is the force (in N) required to do the following? (Enter the magnitude.) (a)
DochEvi [55]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant, k = 81 N/m

We need to find the force required to :

(a) Compress the spring by 6 cm i.e. x₁ = 6 cm = -0.06 m

It can be calculated using Hooke's law as :

F = - k(-x₁)

F=81\ N/m\times 0.06\ m

F = 4.86 N

(b) Expand the spring by 17 cm i.e. x₂ = 17 cm = +0.17 m

So, F = -kx₂

F=-81\ N/m\times 0.17\ m

F = -13.77 N

Hence, this is the required solution.

A dummy is fired vertically upward from a canon with a speed of 40 m/s. How long is the dummy in the air? What is the dummies maximum height?

v=u-at

0=40-10xt

t=4 secs


height = ut-1/2at^2

height= 40x4-1/2x10x4^2

height = 160-5x16

height=160-80=80m

A satellite is spinning at 0.01 rev/s. The moment of inertia of the satellite about the spin axis is 2000 kg · m2. Paired thrust
enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

Angular velocity of satellite

= 2π x .01

= .02 π rad /s

Initial angular momentum

Moment of inertia x angular velocity

= 2000 x .02 π

= 125.6 unit

Linear impulse produced by each thruster

= 15 N.s

Angular impulse

= 15 x 1.5 = 22.5 unit

Total angular impulse in 30 pulses

= 22.5 x 2 x 30

1350

This angular impulse will add total angular momentum of

1350 unit

So total angular momentum after 30 pulses

= 1350 + 22.5

= 1372.5 unit

So  final angular  velocity

= final  angular momentum / moment of inertia

= 1372.5 / 2000

=   0 .686 rad /s
