Answer:

a) Andrea's initial momentum, 200 kg m/s

b) Andrea's final momentum, 0

c) Impulse, = - 200 Ns

d) The force that the seat belt exerts on Andrea, - 400 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial velocity of the car is, u = 40 m/s

The mass of Andrea, m = 50 kg

The time period of deceleration, a = 0.5 s

The final velocity of the car, v = 0

a) Andrea's initial momentum,

p = mu

= 50 x 40

= 200 kg m/s

b) Andrea's final momentum

P = mv

= 50 x 0

= 0 kg m/s

c) Impulse

I = mv - mu

= 0 - 200

= - 200 Ns

The negative sign indicated that the momentum is decreased.

d) The force that the seat belt exerts on Andrea

F = (mv - mu)t

= (0 - 200) / 0.5

= - 400 Ns

Hence,the force that the seat belt exerts on Andrea is, - 400 N

When you look at green dots with a red filter what color did you see?

Dimas [21]

-- Looking at the dots casually, they look green because they absorb all other
colors of light, and only green light is left to proceed to your eyes. (In order for
this to work, there has to be some green in the light shining on the dots.
Daylight and most light bulbs work fine.)

-- The filter looks red because it absorbs all other colors of light, and only
the red light is left to pass through the filter and come out on the other side.

-- When the green light from the dots hits the red filter, it's absorbed in the
filter, and there's no light left to come out on the other side.

If you're looking through the filter at the dots, they look <em>black</em>.

A 12,000-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with arms of unequal areas, filled with incompressib

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

F = 1958.4 N

Explanation:

By volume conservation of the fluid on both sides we can say that volume of fluid displaced on the side of the car must be equal to the volume of fluid on the other side

so we have

$L_1A_1 = L_2A_2$

$1.20(\pi 18^2) = L_2(\pi 5^2)$

$L_2 = 15.55 m$

so the car will lift upwards by distance 1.2 m and the other side will go down by distance 15.55 m

So here the net pressure on the smaller area is given as

$P = P_{atm} + \frac{12,000}{\pi (0.18)^2} + \rho g (1.2 + 15.55)$

excess pressure exerted on the smaller area is given as

$P_{ex} = \frac{12000}{\pi (0.18)^2} + 800(9.81)(16.75)$

$P_{ex} = 2.49\times 10^5 Pascal$

now the force required on the other side is given as

$F = P_ex (area)$

$F = (2.49 \times 10^5)(\pi (0.05)^2)$

$F = 1958.4 N$

Can power be negative in physics? I am doing a lab in which I run down the stairs as quickly as possible. They are 5.4m tall and

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

A negative power would just represent a loss of power. So in your case it lost -1252.16 W

Where do light bulbs get their energy from?(1 point)

N76 [4]

<u>for instance, steel has a higher thermal conductivity than plastic. Hence, the steel plate gives away heat to the ice block faster than a plastic block does. As a result, ice melts faster on a steel plate than on a plastic one. Faster an object draws heat, the colder it feels.</u>
