A test car is driving toward a solid crash-test barrier with a speed of 46 mi/h. Two seconds prior to impact, the car begins to

brake, but it is still moving when it hits the wall. After the collision with the wall, the car crumples somewhat and comes to a complete stop. In order to estimate the average force exerted by the wall on the car, what information would you need to collect?

Answer:

we have to measure distances and time, possibly with an automated system since the values ​​are very small

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the relationship between momentum and momentum

        I = ∫ F dt = Δp

        F t = m v_{f} - mv₀

In the exercise they indicate that the final speed is zero

         F t = - m v₀

         F = -m v₀ / t

With this equation we can find what measurements should be carried out.

To find the speed with which the car collides with the wall, less measure the displacement and its time during the braking process before reaching the wall and from here find the speed with which it reaches the wall.

During the impact, we must find the time that the vehicle is in contact with the wall in the first approach is equal to the time that the car takes to reach the final speed of zero.

In summary we have to measure distances and time, possibly with an automated system since the values ​​are very small

A low orbit satellite at 100 km altitude had a camera that resolved a car location to within 0.3 meter. Find the minimum diamete
NeX [460]

Answer:

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Explanation:

y = Resolve distance = 0.3 m

h = Height of satellite = 100 km

λ = Wavelength = 550 nm

Angular resolution

tan\theta\approx \theta =\frac{y}{h}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0.3}{100\times 10^3}=3\times 10^{-6}

From Rayleigh criteria

sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{550\times 10^{-9}}{sin3\times 10^{-6}}=0.2236\ m=22.4\ cm

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

Relation between resolvable feature, focal length and angular resolution

d=f\Delta \theta\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{d}{\Delta \theta}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{3\times 10^{-6}}=3\ m=300\ cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Answer:

Their number should increase

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon that causes the ejection of electrons from that metal as light shined onto a metal surface. Only certain frequencies of light can cause the ejection of electrons. However, if the frequency of the incident light is too low then no electrons were ejected even if the intensity of the light was very high. If the frequency of the light was higher then electrons were able to be ejected from the metal surface even if the intensity of the light was very low.

According to the accepted wave theory, light of any frequency will cause electrons to be emitted. Kinetic energy emitted by the electrons depends upon the intensity of light.

According to the accepted wave theory, number of electrons being ejected by the metal should increase

Starting from rest, a basketball rolls from the top to the bottom of a hill, reaching a translational speed of 6.1 m/s. Ignore f
tatiyna

Answer:

a) h=3.16 m, b)  v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

Starting point. Highest on the hill

           Em₀ = U = mg h

final point. Lowest point

           Em_{f} = K

Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere

           K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} w²

angular and linear speed are related

           v = w r

           w = v / r

            K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²

            Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)

as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Em_{f}

             mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²)         (1)

             h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)

for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell

             I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²

we substitute

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g    5/3

             h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g

           

let's calculate

           h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8

           h = 3.16 m

b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1

          v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)

in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia

              I_{cm} = ½ m r²

we substitute

             v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]

             v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)

let's calculate

             v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)

             v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

M (b) Calculate the speed of an electron that is accelerated through the same electric potential difference.
MaRussiya [10]

The speed of a electron that is accelerated from rest through an electric potential difference of 120 V  is 6.49\times10^6m/s

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the electron?</h3>

We know, that the  energy of the system is always conserved.

Using the Law of Conservation of energy,

\triangle K+\triangle U=0

Here, K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

Now, substituting the formula of U and K, we get:

(\frac{1}{2} mv^2)+(-q\triangle V) =0------(1)

Here,

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

q is the charge on the electron

V is the potential difference

Let v_f and v_i represent the final and initial speed.

Here, v_i =0

Solving for v_f, we get:

v_f=\sqrt{\frac{-2q\triangle V}{m} }

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1.602\times10^{-19}\times 120}{9.109\times10^{-31}} }

=6.49\times10^6m/s
