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.

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220
disa [49]
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, \mu m g. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
ma=-\mu m g
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2
where v_f=0 is the final speed of the skier and v_i=4.75 m/s is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m

A 5.00-A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5 * 1028 free ele
evablogger [386]

Answer:

a)n= 3.125 x 10^{19 electrons.

b)J= 1.515 x 10^{6 A/m²

c)V_{d =1.114 x 10^{4m/s

d) see explanation

Explanation:

Current 'I' = 5A =>5C/s

diameter 'd'= 2.05 x 10^{-3 m

radius 'r' = d/2 => 1.025 x 10^{-3 m

no. of electrons 'n'= 8.5 x 10^{28}

a) the amount of electrons pass through the light bulb each second can be determined by:

I= Q/t

Q= I x t => 5 x 1

Q= 5C

As we know that: Q= ne

where e is the charge of electron i.e 1.6 x 10^{-19C

n= Q/e => 5/ 1.6 x 10^{-19

n= 3.125 x 10^{19 electrons.

b)  the current density 'J' in the wire is given by

J= I/A => I/πr²

J= 5 / (3.14 x (1.025x 10^{-3)²)

J= 1.515 x 10^{6 A/m²

c) The typical speed'V_{d' of an electron is given by:

V_{d = \frac{J}{n|q|}

    =1.515 x 10^{6 / 8.5 x 10^{28} x |-1.6 x 10^{-19|

V_{d =1.114 x 10^{4m/s

d) According to these equations,

J= I/A

V_{d = \frac{J}{n|q|} =\frac{I}{nA|q|}

If you were to use wire of twice the diameter, the current density and drift speed will change

Increase in the diameter increase the cross sectional area and decreases the current density as it has inverse relation.

Also drift velocity will decrease as it is inversely proportional to the area

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW
