If you fell 90ft while sitting down strapped in an elevator (think tower of terror ride) would you die when the elevator hit the

floor? Would the power be enough? Not for school just curious

Probably not. The elevator has security system just like any device. It will automatically trigger breaks in case it detects some sort of free fall.

Person inside free falling elevator could experience 0G or no gravity effect something similar to what astronauts experience in earth's orbit.

The only damage that could happen to you is when the breaks are released you won't feel 0G anymore and fall about 4ft to the floor of the elevator.

Hope this helps.

Given two vectors A⃗ =4.00i^+7.00j^ and B⃗ =5.00i^−2.00j^ , find the vector product A⃗ ×B⃗ (expressed in unit vectors).
Reptile [31]

Answer:

-43\hat{k}

Explanation:

given,

\vec{A} = 4 \hat{i} + 7 \hat{j}

\vec{B} = 5 \hat{i} - 2 \hat{j}

vector product \vec{A} \times \vec{B} = ?

\vec{A} \times \vec{B} = \begin{bmatrix}i & j & k\\ 4 & 7 &0 \\ 5 & -2 & 0\end{bmatrix}

now, expanding the vector

\vec{A} \times \vec{B}= \hat{k}(-2\times 4 - 7\times 5)

\vec{A} \times \vec{B}= -43\hat{k}

the vector product is equal to -43\hat{k}

Why does a properly adjusted head restraint help prevent head and neck injuries to occupants in rear-end collisions? Explain you
hammer [34]
When a car hits you in a rear end collision, the car initially has a momentum going in one direction. This causes your car to move in the same direction that car was moving even if you were at rest. So, for conservation of momentum, you initially have momentum going in the east direction for example, after the collision, you will have a change in momentum which causes you to have a velocity in the west direction. This is because you are initially at rest and then there is a sudden change in velocity so when you speed up, that momentum causes you to move backwards. If you don't have a properly adjusted neckrest you could may experience whiplash.

What is the difference between a steep and shallow slope
Airida [17]
Whether a line is "steep" or "shallow" depends on the slope of the line. In the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope. In your first equation, 1/2x+4, the slope would be 1/2 which means there is 1 increase in the vertical, or y, value for each 2 increases in the horizontal, or x value. This line would be shallow.
