Answer:

C. Velocity includes direction.

Explanation:

Velocity is speed with a direction.

Suppose you want to design an air bag system that can protect the driver at a speed 100 km/h (60 mph) if the car hits a brick wa
34kurt

When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.

Now, given that:

  • the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
  • after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h

Assumptions:

  • Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
  • That the car's acceleration is also constant.

∴

For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:

\mathsf{v^2 = u^2 + 2as}

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:

\mathsf{v^2 - u^2 =2as }

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2 }{2s}}

The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.

since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s

100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{(0)^2 - (27.78)^2 }{2(1)}}

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{- 771.7284 }{2}}

a = - 385.86 m/s²

Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;

v = u + at

where;

v = 0

-u = at

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-u}{a}}

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-27.78}{-385.86}}

t = 0.07 seconds

An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.

Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

A 100-kg tackler moving at a speed of 2.6 m/s meets head-on (and holds on to) an 92-kg halfback moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s. Pa
DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.

A roller coaster car of mass m = 300 kg is released from rest at the top of a 60 m high hill (position A), and rolls with a negl
Triss [41]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy and angular momentum

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .

Hey JayDilla, I get 1/3.  Here's how:
Kinetic energy due to linear motion is:
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where
v=r \omega
giving
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2

The rotational part requires the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder
I_{cyl} =  \frac{1}{2}mr^2
Then the rotational kinetic energy is
E_{rot}= \frac{1}{2}I \omega ^2= \frac{1}{4}mr^2 \omega ^2
Adding the two types of energy and factoring out common terms gives
\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2(1+ \frac{1}{2})
Here the "1" in the parenthesis is due to linear motion and the "1/2" is due to the rotational part.  Since this gives a total of 3/2 altogether, and the rotational part is due to a third of this (1/2), I say it's 1/3.

A copper Wire has a length of 160 m,and a diameter of 1.0 mm,if ,the wire is connected to a 1.5-Volt battery ,How much Current f
makkiz [27]
Some guidance notes which may help.To calculate the current flow, Ohm's law can be used. This can be written as current=voltage/resistance, or I=V/R. V is 1.5V.R for the copper wire quoted would be calculated as R = resistivity x length/cross sectional area. The area would be calculated from the formula area = pi x diameter squared/4So, R=resistivity x length divided by (pi x diameter squared/4)Until is the resistivity of copper is known, that's about as far as can be gone.Any further questions, please ask.
