Answer:

In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, Weight_{vehicle 1} < Weight_{vehicle 2} but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because Weight_{vehicle 1} \geq Weight_{vehicle 2}

Explanation:

In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff.  In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.

Two objects with the same mass move with the same speed but in opposite directions. Compare their kinetic energies.
ddd [48]

Answer:

A.  Kinetic energies are equal.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the bodies will be equal since the mass and speed are the same.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

Mathematically;

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the speed

 The kinetic energy is a scalar quantity with no regard for direction.

Tom [10]
To answer these questions just use the equations for potential energy using the mass and heights described. the potential energy at the prescribed heights = the initial kinetic energy required to reach that height.

Make sure you calculate the force of gravity on the surface using the radius of the planet.

<span>3.36x10^5 Pascals The ideal gas law is PV=nRT where P = Pressure V = Volume n = number of moles of gas particles R = Ideal gas constant T = Absolute temperature Since n and R will remain constant, let's divide both sides of the equation by T, getting PV=nRT PV/T=nR Since the initial value of PV/T will be equal to the final value of PV/T let's set them equal to each other with the equation P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 where P1, V1, T1 = Initial pressure, volume, temperature P2, V2, T2 = Final pressure, volume, temperature Now convert the temperatures to absolute temperature by adding 273.15 to both of them. T1 = 27 + 273.15 = 300.15 T2 = 157 + 273.15 = 430.15 Substitute the known values into the equation 1.5E5*0.75/300.15 = P2*0.48/430.15 And solve for P2 1.5E5*0.75/300.15 = P2*0.48/430.15 430.15 * 1.5E5*0.75/300.15 = P2*0.48 64522500*0.75/300.15 = P2*0.48 48391875/300.15 = P2*0.48 161225.6372 = P2*0.48 161225.6372/0.48 = P2 335886.7441 = P2 Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 3.36x10^5 Pascals. (technically, I should round to 2 significant figures for the result of 3.4x10^5 Pascals, but given the precision of the volumes, I suspect that the extra 0 in the initial pressure was accidentally omitted. It should have been 1.50e5 instead of 1.5e5).</span>

Hi there!

The maximum deformation of the bumper will occur when the car is temporarily at rest after the collision. We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Initially, we only have kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = Kinetic Energy (J)
m = mass (1060 kg)
v = velocity (14.6 m/s)

Once the car is at rest and the bumper is deformed to the maximum, we only have spring-potential energy:

U_s = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

k = Spring Constant (1.14 × 10⁷ N/m)

x = compressed distance of bumper (? m)

Since energy is conserved:

E_I = E_f\\\\KE = U_s\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

We can simplify and solve for 'x'.

mv^2 = kx^2\\\\x = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Plug in the givens and solve.

x = \sqrt{\frac{(1060)(14.6^2)}{(1.14*10^7)}} = \boxed{0.0198 m}
