A car’s bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of th

e car. The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.200 m while bringing a 900.-kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.1 m/s.

Answer:

 avriage force F = 2722.5 N

Explanation:

For this problem we can use Newton's second law, to calculate the average force and acceleration we can find it by kinematics.

      vf² = v₀² - 2 ax

The final carriage speed is zero (vf = 0)

      0 = v₀² - 2ax

      a = v₀² / 2x

      a = 1.1²/(2 0.200)

      a = 3.025 m / s²

      a = 3.0 m/s²

We calculate the average force

      F = ma

      F = 900 3,025

      F = 2722.5 N

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Correct answer is Wave A has a greater pitch and frequency

Explanation:

To understand the given figure, we should know the definition of wavelength, frequency and pitch

Wavelength

wavelength is defined as distance between two successive wave crests or troughs.

Frequency

Frequency is defined as the number of waves which passes through a given point per second. SI unit of frequency is Hertz.

Pitch

our ear understand the frequency of a sound wave as pitch. A a lower frequency sound has a lower pitch and a higher frequency sound has a higher pitch.

In given figure Wave A has lower wavelength and higher frequency so it have higher pitch than wave B.

A damped harmonic oscillator consists of a mass on a spring, with a small damping force that is proportional to the speed of the
exis [7]

Answer:

2.19 N/m

Explanation:

A damped harmonic oscillator is formed by a mass in the spring, and it does a harmonic simple movement. The period of it is the time that it does one cycle, and it can be calculated by:

T = 2π√(m/K)

Where T is the period, m is the mass (in kg), and K is the damping constant. So:

2.4 = 2π√(0.320/K)

√(0.320/K) = 2.4/2π

√(0.320/K) = 0.38197

(√(0.320/K))² = (0.38197)²

0.320/K = 0.1459

K = 2.19 N/m
