Answer:
The greater the luminosity of a star, the longer its period of oscillation.
One of Kepler's laws is that the orbits of planets are elliptical. It's not a suggestion.
BTW, circles are ellipses too, but so special that their likelihood is close to zero.
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 = 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:
k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)
x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)
Since energy is conserved:
We can simplify and solve for 'x'.
Plug in the givens and solve.
Im pretty sure its Number 3. Sry if im wrong
This is a job for Newton's 2nd Law! F = ma. We want to know the acceleration, so let's solve it for a, and get a = F/m. Now if we double the force, we'll have a' = 2F/m (where a' is the modified acceleration), and then if we decrease the mass by a half, we'd get a'' = 2F/(1/2*m) = 4F/m. We know the original acceleration was a = F/m, so let's sub that into the a'' equation and get: a'' = 4a, so a'' is 4 times the magnitude of our starting a.
