Answer:
Examples of man-made objects that spread an impulse over a large amount of time are "airbags" in vehicles and "arrestor beds" (for trucks).
Explanation:
The question above is highly related to the topic about "Impulse" in Physics.
"Impulse"<em> refers to an object's change in momentum (the amount of motion in an object) when a force acts upon it for an interval time.</em> When it comes to providing safety to people when it comes to vehicular crashes, impulse plays a vital role.
Let's take the example of airbags in vehicles. Once a vehicle collides with another object, the driver is carried by a forward motion. Without airbags, the time is normally shorter for the driver to be stopped by the windshield. This results to a greater force. However, with the presence of air-bags, the driver will hit the airbag, instead of the windshield. <u>This will lengthen the time of the impact, thus reducing the force.</u>
Another example are the arrestor beds for trucks. Arrestor beds have been designed in order for trucks to stop, since it's hard to maneuver them. <u>With the help of arrestor beds, trucks are able to come to a stop with a longer time interval, but decreased force.</u>
The vacuum of outer space has essentially zero air. Because sound is just vibrating air, space has no air to vibrate and therefore no sound. If you are sitting in a space ship and another space ship explodes, you would hear nothing. So, in order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. On Earth, sound travels to your ears by vibrating air molecules. In deep space, the large empty areas between stars and planets, there are no molecules to vibrate. There is no sound there.
B is the answer you need and i honestly got this question on a middle school test
you must be in different area then me
Answer:
0.229 seconds
Explanation:
Given:
y₀ = 80.6 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
We need to find the difference in times when y = 10.8 m and y = 2.10 m.
When y = 10.8 m:
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
10.8 = 80.6 + (0) t + ½ (-9.8) t²
10.8 = 80.6 − 4.9 t²
4.9 t² = 69.8
t = 3.774
When y = 2.10 m:
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
2.10 = 80.6 + (0) t + ½ (-9.8) t²
2.10 = 80.6 − 4.9 t²
4.9 t² = 78.5
t = 4.003
The difference is:
4.003 − 3.774 = 0.229
The man has 0.229 seconds to get out of the way.
