a car collides with a wall. compare the forces exerted by the car on the wall and the wall on the car

NeTakaya

Mass multiplied by acceleration produces force.

The acceleration is (v - 0)/t in this situation, where t seems to be the time it takes automobile A to come to a stop. According to Newton's third law of motion, the automobile produces this turning force of the wall, however the wall, which really is static and indestructible, forces an equal force back on the car.

According to Newton's third law, each action has an equal and opposite response. On this basis, you may deduce that a car driving into a wall would exert force on the wall. However, since the wall did not move, the automobile receives an equivalent force, causing it to collapse.

Question: What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 120 m/s and a wavelength of 0.40 m?

Answer: The equation that relates frequency of a wave to a waves speed and wavelength is Speed of Wave= Frequency X Wavelength. Since you are given speed and wavelength, you plug those two known numbers into the equation, 120= Frequency X 0.40. You then divide 120 by .4 to get your frequency of 300.

Answer:

1keff=1k1+1k2

see further explanation

Explanation:for clarification

Show that the effective force constant of a series combination is given by 1keff=1k1+1k2. (Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination. Also, each spring must exert the same force. Do you see why?

From Hooke's law , we know that the force exerted on an elastic object is directly proportional to the extension provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded.

Now the spring is in series combination

F $\alpha$ e

F=ke

k=f/e.........*

where k is the force constant or the constant of proportionality

k=f/e

$f_{eff} =f_{1} +f_{2}$ ............................1

also for effective force constant

divide all through by extension

1) Total force is

Ft=F1+F2

Ft=k1e1+k2e2

F = k(e1+e2) 2)

Since force on the 2 springs is the same, so

k1e1=k2e2

e1=F/k1 and e2=F/k2,

and e1+e2=F/keq

Substituting e1 and e2, you get

1/keq=1/k1+1/k2

Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination.
