The following three questions refer to a situation in which a driver is in a car that crashes into a solid wall. The car comes t

o a complete stop without bouncing back. The car has a mass of 1500 kg and has a speed of 30 m/s before the crash (this is about 65 mph). The driver has a mass of 60 kg.
1) What is the car's initial momentum? What is the person's initial momentum? What is the change in the momentum of the car? What is the change in the person's momentum?
2) What is the net impulse that acts on the car to bring it to a stop? What is the net impulse that acts on the person to bring them to a stop? Do these numbers depend on the details of the crash? Why or why not?
3) What object delivers the impulse that brings the car to a stop? What object delivers the impulse that brings the person to a stop? Think about what happens during such a crash, and discuss the role each of the factors below plays in the ultimate fate of the driver. Be sure to include what objects exert forces on what other objects, and use the model of impulse & momentum to estimate the strength of these forces.
a) "crumple zone" of the front of the car.
b) use or non-use of seat belt.
c) deployment or non-deployment of airbag.

Answer:

1) p₀ = 45000 N / s ,   p₀ '= 1800 , b)  I = -45000 N s ,  I = 1800 Ns

Explanation:

Impulse equals the change in momentum

         I = Δp

1) the initial moment of the car

         p₀ = M v

          p₀ = 1500 30

          p₀ = 45000 N / s

the change at the moment is

          Δp = 45000

because the end the car is stopped

moment of the person

          P₀ ’= m v

         p₀ '= 60 30

          p₀ '= 1800

          D₀ '= 1800

2) of the momentum change impulse ratio

        car

              I =  Δp

              I = -45000 N s

        person

              I = Δpo '

              I = 1800 Ns

3) the object that give the momentum to stop the wall motoring

The person is stopped by the impulse given by the car

a) This area is the one that absorbs most of the vehicle impulse

be) If using a safety painter, the time during which the greater force will act, therefore the lessons decrease

c) The air bag helps reduction in the speed of the person relatively quickly.

Suppose you are observing the interference pattern formed by a Michelson interferometer in a laboratory and a joking colleague h
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Michelson interferometer , two light waves from different directions are made to overlap so that fringes are formed on the screen due to interference . In it,  two monochromatic and coherent light are made to overlap which have some path difference or phase difference. They form dark and bright fringes .

Now when a match stick is lit in the path of a wave , the fringes will disappear  and an general illumination will be observed on the screen as the light from the lit match stick will not be coherent . Incoherent light can not form stable fringes.

A 2000 kg car is moving at 15 m/sec when it collides with a 1200 kg car sitting still. Briefly compare the impulse imparted on t
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The 1200 kg car.

Explanation:

The 1200 kg car had bo momentum at the initial stage of the journey because it wasn't on motion. But after collision with the 2000 kg car it gained alot of momentum.

The pressure exerted on the block on the ground in N/m² is 200N/m².

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area.

Given is a 5000 Newton block rests on the ground over 25 m² of area.

Pressure p = Force/Area

Put the values, we get

p = 5000 /25

p = 200 N/m²

Hence, pressure exerted on the block on the ground is 200 N/m².

An astronaut orbits planet Y in her spaceship. To remain in orbit at 410km above the planet's center, she maintains a speed of 6
choli [55]
Formula for orbital speed, v =  √(GM/R)

Where G is the universal gravitational constant, M = Central Mass,

R = Distance between centers of Mass.

Given.  v = 68 m/s, M = ? , R = 410 km = 410000 m., G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

68 = √(GM/R)

68 = √(6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ * M/410000)

68² =  (6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ * M)/410000

(68²  * 410000) / 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹    = M

2.84 × 10¹⁹    = M

Mass of Planet Y =  2.84 × 10¹⁹ kg
