What are challenges of securing a crime scene

Physics
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]2 years ago
7 0

At any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

<h3>What is the meaning of physical evidence?</h3>

In evidence law, physical evidence (also called real evidence or material evidence) is any material object that plays some role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced as evidence in a judicial proceeding (such as a trial) to prove a fact in issue based on the object's physical characteristics.

The two types of evidence at crime scenes:

Biological evidence (e.g., blood, body fluids, hair and other tissues)

Latent print evidence (e.g., fingerprints, palm prints, footprints)

The biggest impediment to an investigation is the removal or loss of a piece of evidence from the scene of a crime.

Hence, at any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

8.) If a car moving at 50km/h skids 15m with locked brakes, how far does the same car moving at 100km/h
pantera1 [17]

(8) A car starting with a speed <em>v</em> skids to a stop over a distance <em>d</em>, which means the brakes apply an acceleration <em>a</em> such that

0² - <em>v</em>² = 2 <em>a</em> <em>d</em> → <em>a</em> = - <em>v</em>² / (2<em>d</em>)

Then the car comes to rest over a distance of

<em>d</em> = - <em>v</em>² / (2<em>a</em>)

Doubling the starting speed gives

- (2<em>v</em>)² / (2<em>a</em>) = - 4<em>v</em>² / (2<em>a</em>) = 4<em>d</em>

so the distance traveled is quadrupled, and it would move a distance of 4 • 15 m = 60 m.

Alternatively, you can explicitly solve for the acceleration, then for the distance:

A car starting at 50 km/h ≈ 13.9 m/s skids to a stop in 15 m, so locked brakes apply an acceleration <em>a</em> such that

0² - (13.9 m/s)² = 2 <em>a</em> (15 m) → <em>a</em> ≈ -6.43 m/s²

So the same car starting at 100 km/h ≈ 27.8 m/s skids to stop over a distance <em>d</em> such that

0² - (27.8 m/s)² = 2 (-6.43 m/s²) <em>d</em> → <em>d</em> ≈ 60 m

(9) Pushing the lever down 1.2 m with a force of 50 N amounts to doing (1.2 m) (50 N) = 60 J of work. So the load on the other end receives 60 J of potential energy. If the acceleration due to gravity is taken to be approximately 10 m/s², then the load has a mass <em>m</em> such that

60 J = <em>m g h</em>

where <em>g</em> = 10 m/s² and <em>h</em> is the height it is lifted, 1.2 m. Solving for <em>m</em> gives

<em>m</em> = (60 J) / ((10 m/s²) (1.2 m)) = 5 kg

(10) Is this also multiple choice? I'm not completely sure, but something about the weight of the tractor seems excessive. It would help to see what the options might be.

Now let’s apply the work–energy theorem to a more complex, multistep problem. In a pile driver, a steel hammerhead with mass 200
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a) v = 7.67

b) n = 81562 N

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of hammer-head, m = 200 kg

- The height at from which hammer head drops, s12 = 3.00 m

- The amount of distance the I-beam is hammered, s23 = 7.40 cm

- The resistive force by contact of hammer-head and I-beam, F = 60.0 N

Find:-

(a) the speed of the hammerhead just as it hits the I-beam and

(b) the average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

Solution:-

- We will consider the hammer head as our system and apply the conservation of energy principle because during the journey of hammer-head up till just before it hits the I-beam there are no external forces acting on the system:

                                   ΔK.E = ΔP.E

                                  K_2 - K_1 = P_1- P_2

Where,  K_2: Kinetic energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam

             K_1: Initial kinetic energy of hammer head ( = 0 ) ... rest

             P_2: Gravitational potential energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam. (Datum = 0)

             P_1: Initial gravitational potential energy of hammer head      

- The expression simplifies to:

                                K_2 = P_1

Where,                     0.5*m*v2^2 = m*g*s12

                                v2 = √(2*g*s12) = √(2*9.81*3)

                                v2 = 7.67 m/s

- For the complete journey we see that there are fictitious force due to contact between hammer-head and I-beam the system is no longer conserved. All the kinetic energy is used to drive the I-beam down by distance s23. We will apply work energy principle on the system:

                               Wnet = ( P_3 - P_1 ) + W_friction

                               Wnet = m*g*s13 + F*s23

                               n*s23 = m*g*s13 + F*s23

Where,    n: average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

               s13 = s12 + s23

Hence,

                             n = m*g*( s12/s23 + 1) + F

                             n = 200*9.81*(3/0.074 + 1) + 60

                             n = 81562 N
