Explain the importance of wearing your seatbelt using Newton’s laws and motion

Physics
1 answer:
Elis [28]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states: "an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force."

When you're riding in a vehicle, your body is moving forward.  When the vehicle slows or turns, your body's inertia continues to move you forward.  The seatbelt is the unbalanced force that pushes you back into your seat.  Without it, you would slide off your seat.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a) Tc = 750 [N]  ;b) See the explanation below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.

b)

The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.

a)

In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:

- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0

Tc = 750 [N]
