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

Physics
1 answer:
Brut [27]4 years ago
7 0

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 .

What are examples of a solution in solids, liquids, and gases
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Solid: metal alloy

Liquid: beer

Gas: Air

Explanation:

A solution is a type of mixture where the solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed. Homogeneous mixture means that the solute shouldn't be able to be seen with the naked eye, filtered and stable enough.  

Metal alloy will be an example of a solution in solid-state. Beer is a solution made of liquid alcohol and liquid water. Air mostly composed of nitrogen, but it has oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other substances in gaseous form.

What is the % error in using g = 10.0 m/s^2? (Take the value ofg as 9.8 m/s^2)
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

So percentage error will be 2 %

Explanation:

We have given initial value of acceleration due to gravity g=10m/sec^2

And final value of acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

We have to find the percentage error

We know that percentage error is given by percentage\ error=\frac{initial\ value-final\ value}{initial\ value}\times 100

So percentage\ error=\frac{10-9.8}{10}\times 100=2 %

Describe in terms of kinetic and potential energy what happens if an apple falls from a tree and comes to rest on the ground( wr
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv²  where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.

As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.

But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.
