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

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.1 m and at height 2.1 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

212.8 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Time taken by stone to cover horizontal distance

t=\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}} where t is time, h is height of whirling the stone in horizontal circle, g is gravitational constant, Substituting h for 2.1 m and g for 9.81

t=\sqrt{\frac {2*2.1}{9.81}}= 0.654654 seconds

t=0.65 s

Velocity, v= distance/time

v=10/0.65= 15.27525 m/s

v=15.3 m/s

a=\frac {v^{2}}{r} where r is radius of circle, substituting r with 1.1m

a=\frac {15.3^{2}}{1.1}

a=212.8 m/s^{2}

Therefore, centripetal acceleration is 212.8 m/s^{2}

In your own words tell me about the live cycle of a star (4-5 sentences)
balu736 [363]

Answer: Stars are formed in clouds of gas and dust, known as nebulae. Nuclear reactions at the centre (or core) of stars provides enough energy to make them shine brightly for many years. The exact lifetime of a star depends very much on its size.

A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 18.0 m/s. How fast is it moving when it reaches a height of 11.0m? How long
steposvetlana [31]
Given: v0= 18.0 m/s, y0=0m, yf=11m, g=-9.81 m/s^2 

v0= initial velocity, vf= final velocity, y0= initial height, yf= final height, g= gravity, sqrt()= square root, ^2=squared 

vf^2=v0^2 + (2)(g)(yf-y0) 
vf^2=(18.0 m/s)^2+(2)(-9.81 m/s^2)(11 m-0m) 
vf^2=18.0 m/s)^2 + (-19.62 m/s^2)(11 m)
vf^2=(324 m^2/s^2) - (215.82 m^2/s^2) 
vf^2=108.18 m^2/s^2 
vf=sqrt(108.18 m^2/s^2) 
vf=10.4 m/s
