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.

How long (in seconds) does it take a car accelerating at 3.1 m/s2 to go from rest<br> to 51 m/s?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 t  = 16.5s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Acceleration = 3.1m/s²

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Final velocity  = 51m/s

Unknown:

Time taken  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we need to reiterate that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

So;

        Acceleration  = \frac{v  - u }{t}  

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  So;

       3.1  = \frac{51 - 0}{t}  

    3.1t  = 51

       t  = 16.5s

When you ride a bike and make a turn, you can feel your body trying to move in the same direction the bike was going. Which of N
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Newtons second law explains this the most because for every action their is an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction of you turning, causes the reaction of your whole body to turn with the bike.

A police car is located 50 feet to the side of a straight road. A red car is driving along the road in the direction of the poli
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:74.33 feet per sec

Explanation:

Given

Police car is 50 feet side of road

Red car is 140 feet up the road

Distance between them is decreasing at the rate of 70 feet per sec

From figure

x^2+y^2=z^2

z=\sqrt{140^2+50^2}

z=148.66 feet

as the red car is moving

therefore its velocity magnitude is given by

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

2x\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+0=2z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=z\frac{\mathrm{d} z}{\mathrm{d} t}

140\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=148.66\times 70

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=74.33 feet\ per\ sec

What is a force, motion and energy??​
Leviafan [203]

Answer:Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. All moving objects have kinetic energy. When an object is in motion, it changes its position by moving in a direction: up, down, forward, or backward. 3.  A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, change direction, change speed, or stop.

Explanation: Not sure if that's what you meant but that's the answer I can give you.

What are three key aerodynamics principles?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

There are three basic forces in aerodynamics: acceleration, which moves an airplane forward; drag, which holds it back; and height, which keeps it airborne. Lift is generally explained by three theories: Bernoulli's principle, the Coanda effect, and Newton's third law of motion.
