Answer:
Explanation:
From the 1st Law of linear motion which states that when a body goes into motion, it will continue doing so until it is stopped by force. So the body of the rider keeps moving until it is been stopped and the stopping could be as a result of an impact of any part of the body which includes the head it an object. Also the 3rd Law of Motion will also be applicable because for every action, there will be equal and opposite reaction. The magnitude of the impact will be as a result of the force with which the crash took place as well.
When crashes take place the rider does not always experience a head impact square on with a solid obstruction. During a bike crash, your head comes in contact with the ground. The ground exerts a force that causes your head to stop moving. Often impact will be at an angle and may not be head first. It may be your shoulder will hit first, then your side, and then your head will receive a glancing blow against the ground as you slide.
The ground exerts so much force that it can stop our forward motion within seconds. Without your motorcycle helmet, your head experiences a huge amount of concentrated force during a crash.
<u>I have assumed a weight of 120 N on Earth.</u>
Answer:
<em>The object weighs 20 N on the moon</em>
Explanation:
Weight
The weight of an object depends on the mass m of the object and the acceleration of gravity g of the place they are in.
The formula to calculate the weight is:
W = m.g
If g_e is the acceleration of gravity on Earth, and g_m is the acceleration of gravity on the moon, we know:
Dividing by ge:
An object of weight We=120 N on planet Earth has a mass of:
Multiplying by gm:
Substituting the ratio of accelerations of gravity:
Since m.gm is the weight on the Moon Wm:
The object weighs 20 N on the moon
Answer:
Continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA) air masses are cold, dry, and stable. These air masses originate over northern Canada and Alaska as a result of radiational cooling. Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable.
Explanation:
The velocity, 50 m/s, has two components - vertical and horizontal velocities.
The vertical component = 50 sin 30 = 25 m/s
The horizontal component = 50 cos 30 = 43.3 m/s
(a) Let t be the time taken for the vertical component to reach its peak from initial velocity = 25 m/s to its final velocity = 0.
Using the linear motion equation v = u - gt
0 = 25 - 10t
t = 2.5 s
Time taken to go up and down = 5 s
Time to hit the ground = 5 s
(b) Horizontal distance dealt x = 43.3 * 5 = 216.5 m
This is not the correct answer, but explains the problem thoroughly.
