Professional application dr. john paul stapp was u.s. air force officer who studied the effects of extreme deceleration on the h

uman body. on december 10, 1954, stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282 m/s (1015 km/h) in 5.00 s, and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1.40 s! calculate his (a) acceleration and (b) deceleration. express each in multiples of ? (9.80 m/s2) by taking its ratio to the acceleration of gravity.

A) Acceleration= (282m/s-0m/s)/5.0s= 56.4m/s^2
b) Deceleration=(0m/s-282m/s)/1.40s=201.4m/s^2 (here we reject negative because deceleration already take into account negative)
c) for the first one the multiple will be 5.76g
for the second one it will be 20.6g

In a car with a mass of 4,000 KG is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s2 and hits a tree what force does it have
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N

An inventor claims to have developed a power cycle having a thermal efficiency of 40%, while operating between hot and cold rese
lesya [120]

From Carnot's theorem, for any engine working between these two temperatures:


efficiency <= (1-tc/th) * 100


Given: tc = 300k (from question assuming it is not 5300 as it seems)

For a, th = 900k, efficiency = (1-300/900) = 70%

For b, th = 500k, efficiency = (1-300/500) = 40% 

For c, th = 375k, efficiency = (1-300/375) = 20% 


Hence in case of a and b, efficiency claimed is lesser than efficiency calculated, which is valid case and in case of c, however efficiency claimed is greater which is invalid.

Alina [70]

Answer:

The distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m

Explanation:

Given;

4 X 10¹³ electrons, and its equivalent in coulomb's is calculated as follows;

1 e = 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

4 X 10¹³ e = 4 X 10¹³ X 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C = 6.408 X 10⁻⁶ C

V = Ed

where;

V is the electrical potential energy between two spheres, J

E is the electric field potential between the two spheres N/C

d is the distance between two charged bodies, m

V = \frac{K*q}{d^2}*d = \frac{K*q}{d}

d = \frac{K*q}{V}

where;

K is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

d = (8.99 X 10⁹ X 6.408 X 10⁻⁶)/0.063

d = 914.41 X 10³ m

Therefore, the distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m
