Explanation:

Equation for Impact

FΔt = ΔP,

F = force

Δt = Impact of time

ΔP = Change in momentum

Car steering is engineered to fail in order to maximize the time of contact and hence reduce the initial impact and mitigate the damage incurred.

Road guard railing crumple on contact to maximize impact time and hence reduce impact intensity and mitigate damage.

Road safety containers are loaded with liquid or sand as they improve the period of impact.

The compasses would start point towards the wire. When you have a current going through wire it messes with the electrical field and messes up the compasses so they point towards the wire.

Hope this helps!

At some instant and location the electric field associated with an electromagnetic wave in vacuum has the strength 96.5 V/m. Fin

prisoha [69]

Answer:

B = 32.17 x 10^-8 Tesla

u = 8.24 x 10^-8 J/m^3

P/A = 24.72 W/m^2

Explanation:

E = 96.5 V/m

velocity of light, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Let B be the magnetic field.

The relation between the electric field strength and the magnetic field strength is given by

B = E / c = 96.5 / (3 x 10^8) = 32.17 x 10^-8 Tesla

Let u be the energy density.

$u = \frac{1}{2}\times \varepsilon _{0}E^{2}+\frac{1}{2\mu _{0}}B^{2}$

$u = \frac{1}{2}\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 96.5\times 96.5+\frac{1}{2\times 4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}}\times 32.17^{2}\times 10^{-16}$

u = 8.24 x 10^-8 J/m^3

Let Power flow per unit area is

P/A = u x c = 8.24 x 10^-8 x 3 x 10^8 = 24.72 W/m^2

A train moves moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 sec . what is its acceleration

spayn [35]

A = Delta v/Delta t
Delta v = 25 - 0 = 25
Delta t = 30
25/30 = 5/6 = 1.66 repeating
