What is an example of Deceleration?

2 answers:

That's a word often used to mean "slowing down". An example is what happens
when the brake is applied in a moving car.

But 'deceleration' is a very unofficial, unscientific word. If the forward speed
is decreasing, then a much more useful concept is "negative acceleration".

When the body starts moving with a slower speed than the initial speed and it slows down continuously, the this is called deceleration. Examples of deceleration -

When a ball is thrown upwards, its speed goes on decreasing as its height increases.
When a car applies brakes.

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

$F=43570.9N$

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula $v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$ , taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

$a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}$

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

$F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}$

Which for our values is:

$F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N$

If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the total energy increase?

dybincka [34]

Answer:

c)by a factor of four

Explanation:

The total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator is given by

$E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

where

k is the spring constant of the oscillator

A is the amplitude of the motion

In this problem, the amplitude of the oscillator is doubled, so

A' = 2A

Therefore, the new total energy is

$E'=\frac{1}{2}k(2A)^2=4(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=4E$

So, the total energy increases by a factor 4.
