A car crash causes an acceleration of 6.2 g. What is the car's acceleration in

Physics
1 answer:
Darya [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-60.82 m/s²

Explanation:

recall that the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

We must also realize that during the car crash, the moving car is being brought to a stop. Hence,  it is actually a deceleration (i.e a negative acceleration)  

Therefore we must add a negative sign to our acceleration to describe the deceleration.

acceleration = - 6.2g

= -6.2 x 9.81 m/s²

= -60.8 m/s²

What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can a
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

T= 38.38 N

Explanation:

Here

mass of can = m = 3 kg

g= 9.8 m/sec2

angle θ = 40°

From figure we see the vertical and horizontal component of tension force T

If the can is to slip - then horizontal component of tension force should become equal to force of friction.

First we find force of friction

Fs= μ R

where

μ = 0.76

R = weight of can = mg = 3 × 9.8 = 29.4 N

Now horizontal component of tension

Tx= T cos 40 = T× 0.7660  N

==>T× 0.7660 = 29.4

==> T= 38.38 N

PLEASE HELP
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

3.675 m

Explanation:

a_{x} =0 v_{xo}=100 a_{y} =-g  v_{yo}=0

X-direction     | Y-direction

R=x_{o}+ v_{xo} t  | y=y_{o}+v_{yo}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^2

75=100t         |y=0+0+\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(0.75)

\frac{75}{100} =t             | y=3.675 m

0.75s=t              

Hope it helps

How does the location of the outer planets explain their composition and characteristics?
Elena-2011 [213]

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune collectively make up the group known as the jovian planets. The general structures of the jovian planets are opposite those of the terrestrial planets. Rather than having thin atmospheres around relatively large rocky bodies, the jovian planets have relatively small, dense cores surrounded by massive layers of gas. Made almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, these planets do not have solid surfaces.
