A car of mass 2400kg moving at 20 m/s slams into a cement wall and comes to a halt?

Physics

Impulse = change in momentum

The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)

Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s

To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .

A lizard accelerates from 2 m/s to 10 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the lizard average acceleration
VLD [36.1K]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

change in speed = (10 m/s) - (2 m/s)  =  8 m/s

Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (4 sec)

Acceleration = (8/4) (m/s²)

<em>Acceleration = 2 m/s²</em>

W = _|....F*dx*cos(a)........With F=force, x=distance over which force acts on object,
.......0.............................and a=angle between force and direction of travel.

Since the force is constant in this case we don't need the equation to be an integral expression, and since the force in question - the force of friction - is always precisely opposite the direction of travel (which makes (a) equal to 180 deg, and cos(a) equal to -1) the equation can be rewritted like so:

W = F*x*(-1) ............ or ............. W = -F*x

The force of friction is given by the equation: Ffriction = Fnormal*(coeff of friction)

Also, note that the total work is the sum of all 45 passes by the sandpaper. So our final equation, when Ffriction is substituted, is:

W = (-45)(Fnormal)(coeff of friction)(distance)
W = (-45)...(1.8N).........(0.92).........(0.15m)
W = ................-11.178 Joules

How can wind put off fire?
kipiarov [429]
♥ If the wind is strong enough it can do so.
♥ By having a strong enough wind you can blow out the fire before the flame can consume any more vapor.
♥ If the wind is fast enough, like a birthday cake candle for example, the wind will burn out.
