Suppose a child drives a bumper car head on into the side rail, which exerts a force of 3400 N on the car for 0.400 s.(a) What i

mpulse (in kg · m/s) is imparted by this force?(b) Find the final velocity (in m/s) of the bumper car if its initial velocity was 3.20 m/s and the car plus driver have a mass of 200 kg. You may neglect friction between the car and floor.

Answer:

a) 1360kgm/s b) 5.14m/s

Explanation:

a) According to Newton's second law of motion,

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

since acceleration = change in velocity (v-u)/time(t)

F = m(v-u)/t

Ft = m(v-u) = Impulse.

Impulse is defined as change in momentum of a body. It can be expressed as;

Impulse = Ft = m(v-u)

Given force exerted on the car = 3400N

time taken = 0.400seconds

Impulse = 3400×0.4

Impulse = 1360kgm/s

b) To find the final velocity/(v) of the car, we will use the equation of motion below;

v = u+at where;

v is the final velocity = ?

u is the initial velocity = 3.2m/s

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken = 0.4second

To get the acceleration, we will use the formula F = ma where;

m is the mass

F is the force

a is the acceleration

a = F/m = 3400/200

a = 17m/s²

Substituting the values to get the final velocity 'v' we have;

v² = 3.2²+17(0.4)

v² = 10.24+6.8

v² = 17.04

v =√17.04

v = 4.13m/s

The final velocity of the bumper car is 4.14m/s

Answer:

(a) 1360 Ns

(b) 10 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of force and time. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns

From Newton's third law,

The expression for impulse is given as,

I = F×t............................ Equation 1

Where I = Impulse, F = Force, t = Time.

Given: F = 3400 N, t = 0.4 s

Substitute into equation 1

I = 3400×0.4

I = 1360 Ns

(b)

From newton third law of motion,

Impulse = Change in momentum.

I = m(v-u)................. Equation 2

Where I = impulse, m = mass of the car plus the driver, v = final velocity of the bumper car, u = initial velocity of the car.

make v the subject of the equation

v = (I/m)+u................ Equation 3

Given: I = 1360 Ns, m = 200 kg, u = 3.2 m/s

Substitute into equation 3

v = (1360/200)+3.2

v = 6.8+3.2

v = 10 m/s

A plane has an airspeed of 142 m/s. A 30.0 m/s wind is blowing southward at the same time as the plane is flying. What must be t
const2013 [10]

Answer:

\theta=12.19^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given that

The speed of the airplane ,v= 142 m/s

The speed of the air ,u = 30 m/s

Lets take angle make by airplane from east direction towards north direction is θ .

Now by using diagram ,we can say that

sin\theta =\dfrac{u}{v}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

sin\theta =\dfrac{30}{142}

sin\theta=0.21

\theta=12.19^{\circ}

Therefore the angle will be 12.19° .

If two normal distributions each have the same mean, but one has a standard deviation of 1 and the other has a standard deviatio
likoan [24]

In comparison to a distribution with a standard deviation of 5, one has a curve with a higher peak. The variability will be greater the larger the standard deviation. It denotes increased variability in a distribution with a standard deviation of 5.

<h3>What do you mean by the term standard deviation?</h3>

The term "standard deviation" (or "") refers to a measurement of the data's dispersion from the mean. A low standard deviation implies that the data are grouped around the mean, whereas a large standard deviation shows that the data are more dispersed. In contrast, a high or low standard deviation indicates that the data points are, respectively, above or below the mean. A standard deviation that is close to zero implies that the data points are close to the mean. the curve at the top is more dispersed and has a greater standard deviation than the curve at the bottom, which is more concentrated around the mean and has a lower standard deviation.

During a thunderstorm a tornado lift a car to a height of 300 m above the ground increasing and strength the tornado flings the
sasho [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the time it took the car to hit the ground, we use the formula

speed = distance/time

80 m/s = 300 m/time

time = 300/80

time = 3.75 secs

It must have taken the car 3.75 seconds to hit the ground

To determine the horizontal distance of the car before hitting the ground, the same formula will also be used but with the time obtained above (since that was the time it took before hitting the ground)

speed = distance/time

80 = distance/3.75

distance = 3.75 x 80

distance = 300 meters
