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!

At what distance is the electrostatic force between two protons equal to the weight of one?.
erik [133]

0.118 m is the distance between the two protons.

Mass of proton = 1.6726 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Weight of proton= 1.6726 × 10⁻²⁷ x 9.81 N

                            = 1.6408 × 10⁻²⁶ N

Charge of proton = 1.602 × 10⁻²⁹ C

The force between two protons = kq²/r²     where, K is a proportionality    

                                                            constant, q is a charge of proton and  

                                                         r is the distance between two protons.          

                                                       = 9 × 10⁹ × (1.602×10⁻¹⁹)²/r²      

To calculate distance :

  Weight of proton= Force between protons

 ⇒   1.6408 × 10⁻²⁶ N = 9 × 10⁹ × (1.602×10⁻¹⁹)²/r²

 ⇒    r = 0.118m

Therefore, 0.118 m is the distance between the two protons.

How long is the image of a metrestick formed by a plane mirror?
Zinaida [17]

A plane mirror doesn't change the apparent size or shape of things.

-- If the meter stick is held parallel to the mirror, or is lying on the mirror,
then its image in the mirror is 1 meter long.

-- If the meter stick is held perpendicular to the mirror, or is standing on
the mirror, or pointing directly at it, then its image in the mirror has no length.

A 7.0-kilogram cart, A, and a 3.0-kilogram cart, B, are initially held together at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. W
7nadin3 [17]
For this problem, we use the conservation of momentum as a solution. Since momentum is mass times velocity, then,

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'
where
v₁ and v₂ are initial velocities of cart A and B, respectively
v₁' and v₂' are final velocities of cart A and B, respectively
m₁ and m₂ are masses of cart A and B, respectively

(7 kg)(0 m/s) + (3 kg)(0 m/s) = (7 kg)(v₁') + (3 kg)(6 m/s)
Solving for v₁',
v₁' = -2.57 m/s

<em>Therefore, the speed of cart A is at 2.57 m/s at the direction opposite of cart B.</em>

The laboratory exercise for this chapter addresses kinematic motion. You have experienced these motions in everyday life. Instea
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A) vectors: veloicty, force

scalar:  speed, work

B)  t = 1.75 s,  C)   v = - 17 2 m / s

Explanation:

We answer each part separately

A) A vector magnitude has magnitude and direction instead a scalar magnitude has only magnitude

vector quantities: the speed of a car number is the magnitude and direction is where it goes

Force, the number is the magnitude and above that applies gives direction

Scalar magnitude: how quickly the number of the speedometer of the car

Temperature, work

B) I = 15 m height to the soil and get to calculate time = 0

        y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

as the ball is loose its initial velocity is zero

       0 = 0 +0  - ½ g t²

       t = \sqrt{2y_o/g}

       t = \sqrt{2 \ 15/ 9.8}

       t = 1.75 s

C) the velocity to the reach the floor

      v = vo - g t

      v = 0 - g t

      v = - 9.8 1.74

       v = - 17 2 m / s

The negative signt iindicates that the speed goes down
