The human body can survive a negative acceleration trauma incident (sudden stop) if the magnitude of the acceleration is less th

an 250 m/s2 (approximately 25g). if you are in an automobile accident with an initial speed of 76 km/h (47 mi/h) and are stopped by an airbag that inflates from the dashboard, over what distance must the airbag stop you if you are to survive the crash?

Let d = the required stopping distance of the air bag.
The initial velocity is
u = 76 km/h
   = (76000/3600 m/s)
  = 21.111 m/s

The maximum acceleration (actually deceleration) is -250 m/s².
The final velocity is zero, therefore
0² = (21.111 m/s)² + 2*(-250 m/s²)*(d m)
Obtain
d = 0.8914 m

Because the acceleration decreases when the stopping distance increases, a stopping distance of 1 m would be a good design choice.

Answer:
The stopping distance is 0.9 m (nearest tenth)

weqwewe [10]
Choice-B is the correct one. 

-- The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus.
-- Each proton in the nucleus is usually matched by one electron in the 'cloud'.
-- The addition of a proton OR a neutron increases the mass number by 1 .
-- Electrons have such small mass that they don't figure into the atomic mass at all.

Weight on planet Mars ​
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Mars: 0.38

weight = mass x surface gravity

multiplying your weight on Earth by the number above will give you your weight on the surface of Mars

If you weigh 150 pounds (68 kg.) on Earth, you would weigh 57 lbs. (26 kg.) on Mars

When you have a pot of water on the stove, heat is transferred to the water. Describe the behavior of the water molecules and ho
NikAS [45]
<span>Temperature causes water molecules to move more quickly, because each individual molecule has more energy as it gets hotter (according to Kinetic molecular theory). If you get water hot enough, the molecules move so much that the hydrogen bonds that hold them together start to break and the water becomes a gas ... water vapor. This your answer unless there are choices.</span>
