If a Mack truck and Honda Civic have a headon collision, upon which vehicle is the impact force greater and which vehicle experi

ences the greater acceleration? 1. The forces are the same; the truck experiences the greater acceleration. 2. The force on the truck is greater; the accelerations are the same. 3. All are wrong. 4. The forces are the same; the Civic experiences the greater acceleration. 5. The forces are the same; the accelerations are same.

Answer:

The answer would be 3

Explanation:

This is because a civic would have the greater acceleration and the impact force would be higher for the civic.

A ranger in a national park is driving at 56 km/h when a deer jumps onto the road 65 m ahead of the vehicle. After a reaction ti
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

 t = 1.58 s

Explanation:

given,

Speed of ranger, v = 56 km/h

                            v = 56 x 0.278 = 15.57 m/s

distance, d = 65 m

deceleration,a = 3 m/s²

reaction time = ?

using stopping distance formula

d = v. t + \dfrac{v^2}{2a}

t = \dfrac{d}{v} -\dfrac{v}{2a}

t is the reaction time

t = \dfrac{65}{15.57} -\dfrac{15.57}{2\times 3}

 t = 1.58 s

hence, the reaction time of the ranger is equal to 1.58 s.

What is the least force you could exert on the refrigerator to move it?
Ulleksa [173]
 <span>If the refrigerator weights 1365 and you are not exerting any vertical force on it, then the normal force is also 1365N. so Fn=1365 

Fsf = Static frictional force = (coefficient of static friction) * (Normal force) 

So the least for you could exert to move it is equal to the Fsf. 
Fsf = (0.49)(1365N)</span><span>

A guitar player tunes the fundamental frequency of a guitar string to 560 Hz. (a) What will be the fundamental frequency if she
lawyer [7]

Answer:

(a) if she increases the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased to 740.6 Hz

(b) If she decrease the length of the the string by one-third the fundamental frequency will be increased to 840 Hz

Explanation:

(a) The fundamental, f₁, frequency is given as follows;

f_1 = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L}

Where;

T = The tension in the string

μ = The linear density of the string

L = The length of the string

f₁ = The fundamental frequency = 560 Hz

If the tension in the string is increased by 15%, we will have;

f_{(1  \, new)} = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T\times 1.15}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L} = 1.3225 \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L}  = 1.3225 \times f_1

f_{(1  \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 = (1 + 0.3225) \times f_1

f_{(1  \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 =\dfrac{132.25}{100} \times 560 \ Hz  = 740.6 \  Hz

Therefore, if the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased by a fraction of 0.3225 or 32.25% to 740.6 Hz

(b) When the string length is decreased by one-third, we have;

The new length of the string, L_{new} = 2/3·L

The value of the fundamental frequency will then be given as follows;

f_{(1  \, new)} =  \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \times \dfrac{2 \times L}{3} }  =\dfrac{3}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{3}{2} \times 560 \ Hz =  840 \ Hz

When the string length is reduced by one-third, the fundamental frequency increases to one-half or 50% to 840 Hz.
