Hi there!

The maximum deformation of the bumper will occur when the car is temporarily at rest after the collision. We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Initially, we only have kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = Kinetic Energy (J)
m = mass (1060 kg)
v = velocity (14.6 m/s)

Once the car is at rest and the bumper is deformed to the maximum, we only have spring-potential energy:

U_s = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)

x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)

Since energy is conserved:

E_I = E_f\\\\KE = U_s\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

We can simplify and solve for 'x'.

mv^2 = kx^2\\\\x = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Plug in the givens and solve.

x = \sqrt{\frac{(1060)(14.6^2)}{(1.14*10^7)}} = \boxed{0.0198 m}

You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 72 km/h and the other half at 98 km/h. On the way back
zimovet [89]

Answer: a. 85km/hr b.82.3km/hr

c. 84km/hr

Explanation: first let take the total time from San Antonio to Houston to be 2hr.

Half time 1hr was covered with speed of 72km/hr

Distance = speed*time=72km/hr *1hr

=72km

So too with the second half of 1hr covered with speed of 98km/hr

Distance = 98km

Total distance from Houston to San Antonio is 98+72 =170km

a. Average speed from San Antonio to Houston is

S1 =170/2

=85km/hr

b.half distance from Houston to San Antonio which is 170km/2

= 85km was covered with speed of 72km/hr first half, so time

t = dist/speed

t = 85/72 = 1hr 12 mins

Remaining 85 km covered with a speed of 98km/hr

Time = 85/98 = 0.88*60min

= 52 mins

Total time = 1hr +12mins +52mins

=2hr4mins= 124/60 hr

So average speed = distance/time

=170/124/60

Using reciprocal law

Average speed S2= 170*60/124

= 82.3km/hr

C. Average speed to and fro(entire tripe)

= (85+82.3)/2

=84km/hr

A gun has a muzzle speed of 90 meters per second. What angle of elevation should be used to hit an object 150 meters away? Negle
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

θ₀ = 84.78° (OR) 5.22°

Explanation:

This situation can be treated as projectile motion. The parameters of this projectile motion are:

R = Range of Projectile = 150 m

V₀ = Launch Speed of Projectile = 90 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ₀ = Launch angle (OR) Angle of Elevation = ?

The formula for range of a projectile is given as:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ₀/g

Sin 2θ₀ = Rg/V₀²

Sin 2θ₀ = (150 m)(9.8 m/s²)/(90 m/s)²

2θ₀ = Sin⁻¹ (0.18)

θ₀ = 10.45°/2

<u>θ₀ = 5.22°</u>

Also, we know that for the same launch velocity the range will be same for complementary angles. Therefore, another possible value of angle is:

θ₀ = 90° - 5.22°

<u>θ₀ = 84.78°</u>
