How does inertia affect someone who isn't wearing a seatbelt

1 answer:

7 0

Basically, when someone is resting in an accelerated vehicle without restraint from a seatbelt, the force of stopping the vehicle will be when inertia occurs, and that force of the vehicle coming to a stop will affect the passenger (without a seatbelt/restraint from another force or object) greatly by throwing them.
For example;
If I were to be riding in a vehicle (without a seatbelt) that's accelerating at 40 m/s^2 and it suddenly gets slammed on the breaks, I will be thrown forward from inside the vehicle.

I hope this helps!

maria [59]

Answer:

$\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m$

Explanation:

Give that,

The potential difference of the electrons, $V=8\times 10^{3}\ V$

We need to find the wavelength of the electrons.

Using the conservation of energy,

$2meV=\dfrac{h^2}{\lambda^2}\\\\\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{h^2}{2meV}}$

Put all the values,

$\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{(6.63\times 10^{-34})^2}{2\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 8\times 10^3}}\\\\\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m$

So, the wavelength of the electrons is $1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m$ .

A steel ball rolls with a constant velocity on a tabletop 0.950 m high it rolls off and hit the ground 0.352 m from the edge of

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.799 m/s if air resistance is negligible.

Explanation:

For how long is the ball in the air?

Acceleration is constant. The change in the ball's height $\Delta h$ depends on the square of the time:

$\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t$ ,

where

$\Delta h$ is the change in the ball's height.
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.
$t$ is the time for which the ball is in the air.
$v_0$ is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.

The height of the ball decreases, so this value should be the opposite of the height of the table relative to the ground. $\Delta h = -0.950\;\text{m}$ .
Gravity pulls objects toward the earth, so $g$ is also negative. $g \approx -9.81\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}$ near the surface of the earth.
Assume that the table is flat. The vertical velocity of the ball will be zero until it falls off the edge. As a result, $v_0 = 0$ .

Solve for $t$ .

$\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t$ ;

$\displaystyle -0.950 = \frac{1}{2} \times (-9.81) \cdot t^{2}$ ;

$\displaystyle t^{2} =\frac{-0.950}{1/2 \times (-9.81)}$ ;

$t \approx 0.440315\;\text{s}$ .

What's the initial horizontal velocity of the ball?

Horizontal displacement of the ball: $\Delta x = 0.352\;\text{m}$ ;
Time taken: $\Delta t = 0.440315\;\text{s}$

Assume that air resistance is negligible. Only gravity is acting on the ball when it falls from the tabletop. The horizontal velocity of the ball will not change while the ball is in the air. In other words, the ball will move away from the table at the same speed at which it rolls towards the edge.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Rolling Velocity}&=\text{Horizontal Velocity} \\&= \text{Average Horizontal Velocity}\\ &=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.352\;\text{m}}{0.440315\;\text{s}}=0.0799\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Both values from the question come with 3 significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that during the calculation and round the final result to the same number of significant figures.

During the process of _____, two rails or sides break apart and attract new nucleotide bases to form a new and complete strand.

netineya [11]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is- Replication.

DNA replication is a biological process in which two identical replica of DNA are produced from single original DNA molecule through an enzyme called as DNA polymerase.

The two strands of double helical DNA are first separated ( with the help of helicase enzyme) so that the template DNA strands are exposed. In other words, the two strands are broken apart and attract new nucleotide bases to synthesize a new and complete strand of DNA.

This is done by DNA polymerase according to Watson and Crick base pairing ( A pairs to T, G pairs to C)
