Vehicle Kinematics: a vehicle sliding sideways into a gravel pit, a vehicle driving down a bank, a vehicle driving up a ramp and a vehicle sliding laterally against a curb.  "sliding laterally against a curb" and "sliding sideways into a gravel pit".

Answer:

We can find the difference using the definition of each concept.

First of all, kinematics refer to a subfield of classical mechanics that only DESCRIBES the motion of a body, point or any object.

Now, vehicular kinematics refer to the study of the motion of a vehicule, only to describe the movement. This subject is studied to test vehicules. Vehicular kinematics and vehicule dynamics are two important fields to analyse in vehicules production, to improvement them in case of accidents. It's important to specify that all these studies are only about the car itself.

On the other hand, we have occupant kinematics which refer to the study of the motion of the occupant who is inside the vehicle. This study is aimed to calculate the movement of the occupant in case of accidents, in order to prevent serious injuries. The best example for this is the air bag, which is an invention to prevent major injuries in case of accidents, this innovation was developed by analysing the motion of the occupant to see where the body goes and which part of the body hits the car inside. The air bag represents a simple but useful innovation that prevents many death per year in car accidents.

Therefore, basically, the difference between these two kinematics is that one studies the vehicle motion and the other one studies the occupant motion, the person inside the vehicle. These studies are important to develop and innovate new things to prevent accidents or serious injuries after an accident.

A 3858 N piano is to be pushed up a(n) 3.49 m frictionless plank that makes an angle of 31.6 ◦ with the horizontal. Calculate th
uranmaximum [27]
The work done will be equal to the potential energy of the piano at the final position

P.E=m.g.h

.consider the plank the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed with the ground
.let x be the angle with the ground=31.6°
.h be the side opposite to the angle x (h is the final height of the piano)
.let L be the length of the plank

sinx=opposite side / hypotenuse
= h/L

then h=L.sinx=3.49×sin31.6°=0.638m

weight w=m.g
m=w/g=3858/10=385.8kg

Consider Gravity g=10m/s2

then P.E.=m.g.h=385.8kg×10×0.638=2461.404J

then Work W=P.E.=2451.404J

Oscilloscopes have parallel metal plates inside them to deflect the electron beam. These plates are called the deflecting plates
Alina [70]

Answer:

The capacitance of the deflecting plates is C=1.59 pF.

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance of the capacitor in terms of area and distance is as follows;

C=\frac{\varepsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, C is the capacitance, A is the area, d is the distance and \varepsilon _{0} is the absolute permittivity.

Convert the side of the square from cm to m.

s= 3.0 cm

s= 0.030 m

Calculate the area of the square.

A= s_^{2}

Put s= 0.030 m.

A=(0.030)_^{2}

A=9\times10^{-4}m^{-2}

Convert distance from mm to m.

d= 5.0 mm

d=5\times10^{-3}m

Calculate the capacitance of the deflecting plates.

C=\frac{\varepsilon _{0}A}{d}

Put d=5\times10^{-3}m, A=9\times10^{-4}m^{-2} and \varepsilon _{0}=8.85\times 10^{-12}Fm^{-1}.

C=\frac{(8.85\times 10^{-12})(9\times10^{-4})}{5\times10^{-3}}

C=1.59\times 10^{-12}F

C=1.59 pF

Therefore, the capacitance of the deflecting plates is C=1.59 pF.
