A distant galaxy is determined to be 150 million light years distant and moving away from us; using the Hubble law determine its

velocity in terms

Your question kind of petered out there towards the end and you didn't specify
the terms, so I'll pick my own.

The "Hubble Constant" hasn't yet been pinned down precisely, so let's pick a
round number that's in the neighborhood of the last 20 years of measurements:

             <em>70 km per second per megaparsec</em>.

We'll also need to know that 1 parsec = about 3.262 light years.

So the speed of your receding galaxy is

         (Distance in LY) x (1 megaparsec / 3,262,000 LY) x (70 km/sec-mpsc) =

              (150 million) x  (1 / 3,262,000) x (70 km/sec) =

                                 <em>3,219 km/sec  </em>in the direction away from us (rounded)

A government agency estimated that air bags have saved over 14,000 lives as of April 2004 in the United States. (They also state
balu736 [363]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

I = F*t

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

I = p

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

p=m(v_1-v_2)

p = 75*0.15

p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

F(0.025)= 1125

F= 45000N

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N

What requirement must a force acting on a object satisfy in order for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.

The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.
