A car of m = 1200. kg collides with a tree while traveling 60.0 mph. The collision occurs over a time period of 0.0500 seconds.

Determine the magnitude of the force exerted on the car as it comes to rest during the collision. (1 m/s = 2.24 mph) DOK 2

Answer:

Force, F = 38.4 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the car, m = 1200 kg

Initial velocity of the car, u = 60 m/h = 0.016 m/s

The collision occurs over a time period of 0.0500 seconds.

Force, F = m a

F=1200\ kg\times \dfrac{0-0.0016\ m/s}{0.05\ s}

F = -38.4 N

The magnitude of the force exerted on the car as it comes to rest during the collision is 38.4 N

You may know linear momentum is given by P= mass.velocity. Initially car is moving with some velocity so you know initial momentum of the car. Finally it comes to rest i.e final momentum of the car is 0. According to Newton's second law : Force = change in momentum /time. Applying this you'll get answer as 642840N. Hope it helped you. Revert back to me if you have any questions. Please check out the calculation it might be wrong!

A 900-kg giraffe runs across a field at a rate of 50 km/hr. What is the magnitude of its momentum? 18 km/hr
Yuri [45]
The correct answer is the one with 45000 kg*km/hr.
the formula is p = m*v 
 900 *50/hr  giving u 45000 
I know this is the correct answer because i have already turned it in and got a 100%.

Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

  (E) a greatly increased number of small particles in Earth’s orbit would result in a blanket of reflections that would make certain valuable telescope observations impossible

Explanation:

The trade is one strong reflection for many weak reflections (and more dangerous near-Earth space travel).

None of the answer choices except the last one has anything to do with the effect of exploding a satellite. When you are arguing that exploding a satellite is ill conceived, you need to address specifically the effects of exploding the satellite.
