It all has to do with what's going on around us. The speed of the vehicles, the type of vehicle, the safety factors, seatbelts, where you are in the car, what was the force of the impact, etc; Every accident has different factors playing into them in order to lead to said injuries

how fast will and in what direction will a 20kg object accelerate if one force pushes at a 30 degree angle and another pushes at
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

|a|=2.83\ m/s^2

\theta=75^o

Explanation:

<u>Net Force And Acceleration </u>

The Newton's second law relates the net force applied on an object of mass m and the acceleration it aquires by

\vec F_n=m\vec a

The net force is the vector sum of all forces. In this problem, we are not given the magnitude of each force, only their angles. For the sake of solving the problem and giving a good guide on how to proceed with similar problems, we'll assume both forces have equal magnitudes of F=40 N

The components of the first force are

\vec F_1=

\vec F_1=\ N

The components of the second force are

\vec F_2=

\vec F_2=\ N

The net force is

\vec F_n=

\vec F_n=\ N

The magnitude of the net force is

|F_n|=\sqrt{14.64^2+54.64^2}

|F_n|=\sqrt{3200}=56.57\ N

The acceleration has a magnitude of

\displaystyle |a|=\frac{|F_n|}{m}

\displaystyle |a|=\frac{56.57}{20}

|a|=2.83\ m/s^2

The direction of the acceleration is the same as the net force:

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{54.64}{14.64}

\theta=75^o

I need hellp with thisss plssss????????!!!!
Leto [7]

Answer:

The graph appears to be in error.

The actual figure appears to be a rhombus with sides of 5 and 15 with a height of 5

The work done (F * S) is the area of the rhombus

1/2 * (5 +15) * 5 = 50 J

A man wishes to pull a crate 15m across a rough floor by exerting a force of 100 N. The
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance in the direction of force.

force, f = 100 N

Coefficient of friction, = 0.25

distance = 15 m

So, net force F = f - friction force

F = 100 - 0.25 x m g

Work = (100 - 0.25 mg) x d cosθ

For minimum work, the angle should be maximum.

So, the value of θ is 76°.

thus, option (E) is correct.

8. Fig. 4.1 shows a heavy ball B of weight W suspended from a fixed beam by two ropes P and Q.
mart [117]

Answer:

The resultant tension of the two ropes is approximately 42.4 N

The length of the line representing the resultant tension is approximately 8.48 cm

Please find included  with the answer the scale drawing created with Microsoft Word

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The tension in rope P, T_P = 30 N

The tension in rope Q, T_Q = 30 N

The angle the rope, 'P', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The angle the rope, 'Q', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The scale factor of the scale diagram, S.F. = 5.0 N/cm

By the resolution of forces at equilibrium, we have;

The sum of the vertical forces, \Sigma F_y = T_P_y + T_Q_y + W = 0

∴ W = -(T_P_y + T_Q_y)

W = -(30 × sin(45°) + 30 × sin(45°)) = -42.4264068712

The weight of the heavy ball, W ≈ 42.4 N acting downwards

The sum of the horizontal forces, \Sigma F_x = T_P_x + T_Q_x  = 0

The length of the resultant force, W = W/(S.F.) ≈ 42.4 N/(5.0 N/cm) = 8.48 cm

The drawing of the vectors using the scale factor of 5.0 N/cm is created using Microsoft Word is included

Consider the hydrogen atom. How does the energy difference between adjacent orbit radii change as the principal quantum number i
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases

Explanation:

The energy levels of the hydrogen atom are given by the following formula:

E=-E_0 \frac{1}{n^2}

where

E_0 = 13.6 eV is a constant

n is the level number

We can write therefore the energy difference between adjacent levels as

\Delta E=-13.6 eV (\frac{1}{n^2}-\frac{1}{(n+1)^2})

We see that this difference decreases as the level number (n) increases. For example, the difference between the levels n=1 and n=2 is

\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2})=-13.6 eV(1-\frac{1}{4})=-13.6 eV(\frac{3}{4})=-10.2 eV

While the difference between the levels n=2 and n=3 is

\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{9})=-13.6 eV(\frac{5}{36})=-1.9 eV

And so on.

So, the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases.
