If an automobile moving at high speed suddenly comes to a stop, you would have a large change in momentum. This relates to Newton's second law in the form F = delta p / delta t, where p is momentum (mv).
You could lessen the effect of the sudden stop on the passengers by changing the average force exerted on them. If you look at Newton's second law again, you can see that given some delta p, you can decrease F by increasing delta t. What this means is that if you increase the length of time over which the change in momentum occurs, you can decrease the average force exerted to obtain that change in momentum. This is the reason why landing on a soft cushion is preferable to landing on a concrete surface. The cushion gives way to any object falling on it while still providing some resistance (you don't stop as abruptly), so while your change in momentum is the same in both cases, you have a larger delta t in the case of the cushion.
Answer:
The block didn't slide due to balancing of gravitational force with friction force
Explanation:
When the block was given a flick the force provided an acceleration to it and it moved up the inclined plane. when the block reached top it was expected that it would slide back but it didn't this happened because of the frictional force acting on the bottom the block which was balancing the gravitational force component along the plane and this prevented sliding back of the block.
static friction was balancing mg*sin(theta)
fs = mg*sin(theta)
The final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Initial velocity, u = 33 m/s
Height, h = 5m
Final velocity, v = ?
According to Newton's law:
v² - u² = 2gh
where,
g is the acceleration due to gravity and
g = 9.8 m/s²
On substituting the values we get:
Therefore, the final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s
Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
Answer:
60 000 N
Explanation:
1 pa = 1 N/m^2
you have 300 000 of these = 300 000 N /m^2
but only an area of .2 m^2
300 000 N / m^2 * .2 m^2 = 60 000 N
