A truck traveling at 80 mph runs into a bridge abutment and crumples for 0.8 m before coming to a full stop. If we estimate the

process as constant deceleration motion, what is the average force exerted on the car, with mass 3500 kg, during the collision process

U = 80mph = 35.76m/s

S = 0.8m

M = 3500kg

To find the deceleration, we use equation of motion to calculate that

V² = u² + 2as

But v = 0

0 = u² + 2as

-U² = 2as

a = -u² / 2s

a = -(35.76)² / (2 * 0.8)

a = 1278.78 / 1.6 = 799.24 m/s²

The force exerted on the truck during deceleration is equal to the summation of all the forces acting on the truck.

∑F = m. ⃗a

-F = 3500 * 799.24

F = -2797331.25N

F = -2797.33kN

F = -2.797MN.

A 5 kg block is pushed across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. What is the frictional forc
julsineya [31]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

mass, M = 5Kg

horizontal force, F_h = 40N

acceleration, a =5 m/s^2

frictional force, F_f =?

net force = ma

net force = F_h - F_f = 40N - F_f

40  - F_f = 5 x 5

- F_f = 25 - 40

multiply both side by -1

F_f = 40 - 25 = 15

the frictional force is 15N

A body which has surface area 5cm² and temperature of 727°C radiates 300J of energy in one minute. Calculate it's emissivity giv
cestrela7 [59]
<h2>Answer: 0.17</h2>

Explanation:

The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":  

P=\sigma A T^{4} (1)  

Where:  

P=300J/min=5J/s=5W is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing 1W=\frac{1Joule}{second}=1\frac{J}{s}

\sigma=5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}} is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.  

A=5cm^{2}=0.0005m^{2} is the Surface area of the body  

T=727\°C=1000.15K is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.

However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close.  So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:

P=\sigma A \epsilon T^{4} (2)  

Where \epsilon is the body's emissivity

(the value we want to find)

Isolating \epsilon from (2):

\epsilon=\frac{P}{\sigma A T^{4}} (3)  

Solving:

\epsilon=\frac{5W}{(5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}})(0.0005m^{2})(1000.15K)^{4}} (4)  

Finally:

\epsilon=0.17 (5)  This is the body's emissivity

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Static electricity is what makes your hair stand up when you rub a balloon against it or gives you a shock from your doorknob. In static electricity, electrons are moved around mechanically (i.e. by someone rubbing two things together).

kvasek [131]

Answer: |F| = 1.28 x 10⁵ N

Explanation:

an impulse results in a change of momentum

FΔt = mΔv

F = m(vf - vi)/t

F = 2000(0 - 32) / 0.5

F = -128,000

|F| = 1.28 x 10⁵ N
