Answer:

13.24m/s

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we go back to the kinematic equations of motion in search of acceleration and the initial speed at which the object was moving.

Once found it will be possible to determine the estimated time.

Our values are:

F=-8000N

m=73Kg

Applying the Second Newton's Law:

a= \frac{F}{m}

a=\frac{8000}{73}

a = 109.58m/s^2

During the collision the distance is 0.8m and there is not final velocity, then

v_f^2 = v^2_0+2ax

0 = v^2_0+2(109.58)(0.8)

v_^2_0 = 175.328

v_0 = 13.24m/s

From the Kinetic Equation we have also

v_f = v_0 - at

0 = 13.24-(109.58)t

t= 0.1208s

Therefore the velocity before the air bag opens up is 13.24m/s in an interval time of 0.12s to open the air bag

Answer:

 v₀ = 13.24 m / s

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law to find the average acceleration during the crash

       F = m a

.       a = F / m

       a = 8000/73

       a = 109.59 m / s²

Now we can use the kinematic equations to find the initial velocity, since when the velocity stops it is zero (v = 0)

       v² = v₀² - 2 a x

       v₀² = 2 a x

       v₀ = √  2 a x

       v₀ = √ (2 109.59 0.80)

       v₀ = 13.24 m / s

Which particle would have the slowest rate of deposition? A.round particle B.very large particle C.particle with sharp ends D.pa
lisabon 2012 [21]

The particle with sharp ends have the slowest rate of deposition  

Answer: Option C  

<u>Explanation:</u>

          As per aerosol physics, deposition is a process where aerosol particles accumulate or settle on solid surfaces. Thereby, it reduces the concentration of particles in the air. Deposition velocity (rate of deposition) defines from F = vc, where v is deposition rate, F denotes flux density and c refers concentration.  

          Deposition velocity is slowest for particles of intermediate-sized particles because the frictional force offers resistance to the flow. Density is directly proportional to the deposition rate so clearly shows that high-density particles settle faster. Due to friction, round and large-sized particles deposit faster than oval/flattened sediments.

skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 13.5 m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 7.37 m/s. If
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1.7 m/s²

Explanation:

d = length of the ramp = 13.5 m

v₀ = initial speed of the skateboarder = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the skateboarder = 7.37 m/s

a = acceleration

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

7.37² = 0² + 2 a (13.5)

a = 2.01 m/s²

θ = angle of the incline relative to ground = 29.9

a' = Component of acceleration parallel to the ground

Component of acceleration parallel to the ground is given as

a' = a Cosθ

a' = 2.01 Cos29.9

a' = 1.7 m/s²

The amount of energy the body uses when at rest is referred to as _____.
Nesterboy [21]

The answer is Basal Metabolic Rate. It is the total amount of energy expressed in calories that an individual needs to keep the body working at rest. Some of those progressions are blood circulation, breathing, cell growth, controlling body temperature, nerve and brain function, and tightening of muscles.

Electricity is the movement of _____ from one atom to another along a conductor.
prohojiy [21]

The sentence can be completed as follows:

"Electricity is the movement of charges from one atom to another along a conductor."


The movement of the the charges is due to the presence of a potential difference across the conductor, which pushes the charges. More specifically, in normal conductors, the carriers of electricity are the electrons. Therefore we can rewrite the sentence as

"Electricity is the movement of electrons from one atom to another along a conductor."
