Answer: D

Reduced impact time will increase the impact force

Explanation: Collision occurs when two or more bodies collide and exert forces on each other within a short time.

If a body of mass M moving with a velocity V collide with another body, the kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the body.

That is, K.E = 1/2mv^2 = F × s

Where workdone = Force × distance

Make F the subject of formula

Mv^2/2s = F

But V = distance s/time t

Substitute for V

Ms^2/2t^2s = F

Ms/2t^2 = F

From the equation above, we can deduce that F is inversely proportional to the square of time.

Therefore, the reduced impact time will increase the impact force

Your spaceship lands on an unknown planet. to determine the characteristics of this planet, you drop a 1.50 kg wrench from 5.50
Vesnalui [34]
1. calculate the value of acceleration that objects gains in that period of time
•calculating acceleration
5.50 = 1/2at^2
5.50*2/t^2 = a
11.00/0.657 = a
16.74=a
now you got the acceleration
2. you have laws of gravitation for that

g = Gm/r^2
where g is the acceleration value
16.74 = 6.754*10^-11 × m/ 6.28*10^4
105.14*10^4 /6.754*10-11 = m
15.567*10^15 = m
that would be the mass of the planet ...

In Hooke’s law, what does the x represent?
Mice21 [21]

Answer:   C

X = Displacement of the spring

Hooke's law: It states that the applied force F is proportional to the  displacement of spring .

            F ∝ x

            Where, x = displacement of spring in meters

                         F = force, measured in Newtons

In another words The force F is equal to the constant K times the disparagement.

            F = k.x

            Where k is constant and it depends on elastic material.

            Spring has restorative force.  

If the spring moves in opposite direction then,

           F = - k.x

A negative sign indicates that the spring resists and force is to the left. The compression of the spring is greater than the restoring force.  

   Example: A mass 'm' stretches a spring at a displacement x.

inessss [21]

Answer:

t=0.193s

Explanation:

What is said is that the meter fell d=18.3cm=0.183m under the action of gravity. We can use the formula for accelerated motion:

d=v_0t+\frac{at^2}{2}

Since it departed from rest it will mean that:

d=\frac{at^2}{2}

So our time will be:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}

Which for our values is:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.183m)}{(9.81m/s^2)}}=0.193s
