The impulse experienced is -18,000 kg m/s
Explanation:
The impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object. Mathematically:
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the final velocity of the object
u is the initial velocity
is the change in momentum
I is the impulse
In the collision in this problem,
m = 1300 kg is the mass of the car
u = 11 m/s is the initial velocity
v = -2.5 m/s is the final velocity (negative, since it is in the opposite direction)
Substituting, we find
So the closest choice is
-18,000 kg m/s

Answer:
option D
Explanation:
given,
Intensity of sound = 20 dB
distance = 15 m
intensity of sound is increased to = 50 dB
distance between the sound level = ?
Using relation
L₁ = 20 dB L₂ = 50 dB r₁ = 15 m r₂ = ?
r₂ = 0.47 m
r₂ = 47 cm
hence, the correct answer is option D
