A family car has a mass of 1400 kg. In an accident it hits a wall and goes from a speed of 27 m/s to a standstill in 1. 5 second
1 answer:
The force involved is = 25200 Newton
Given the values in the questions,
Mass = 1400 kg
Speed or velocity of the car = 27 m/s
Time is given = 1.5 seconds
According to the formula of force,
⇒ Force = Mass x Acceleration
⇒ Force = 1400 x Acceleration ----- equation 1
Now to calculate the value of acceleration we will use,
⇒ Acceleration = (Velocity or Speed) / Time
⇒ Acceleration = 27 / 1.5
⇒ Acceleration = 18 m/
Putting the value of acceleration in equation 1,
⇒ Force = 1400 x 18
⇒ Force = 25200 Newton
Therefore, the force involved is = 25200 Newton

Given :
Liquid is poured into a burrete so that it reads 14cm³.
50 drops were run each of volume 0.1cm³ .
To Find :
The volume of liquid in burrete after 50 drops.
Solution :
Volume of each drop, v = 0.1 cm³.
Initial volume in burrete, V = 14 cm³.
Now, volume left after droping 50 drops are :
Therefore, the volume left in burrete is 9 cm³ .
