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

Suppose you exert a 25-N force to lift a ball 0.4 m in 2 s. How much work is done?
Sergio [31]

work is force x distance = 25 x 0.4

= 2.5x4 = 10joules

pwer would be 10j/2s watts .... 5 watts
