A 50 kilogram woman wearing a seatbelt is traveling in a car that is moving with a velocity of +10 meters per second. In an emer

gency, the car is brought to a stop in 0.50 seconds. What force does the seatbelt exert on the woman so that she remains in her seat?
A. -1.0 x 10^3 N
B. -5.0 x 10^2 N
C. -5.0 x 10^1 N

Answer:

the answer is A.) -1 * 10^3[N]

Explanation:

The solution consists of two steps, the first step is using the following kinematic equation:

v=v_{i} +a*t\\where:\\v=final velocity [m/s]\\v_{i}=initial velocity [m/s]\\a=acceleration[m/^2]\\t=time[s]\\

The initial velocity is 10 [m/s], and the final velocity is zero because the car stops in 0.5[s].

Replacing:

0=10+a*(0.5)\\a=-20[m/s^2]

Now in the second part, we need to use the second law of Newton, this law relates the forces with the acceleration of a body.

In the moment when the car stops suddenly the driver will feel the force of the seatbelt acting in the opposite direction of the movement.

F=m*a\\F=50[kg]*(-20[m/s^2])\\units\[kg]*[m/s^2]=[N]\\F=-1000[N] or -1*10^{3} [N]

The minus sign means that the force is acting in the opposite direction of the movement.

Using the second Law of Newton, F = m * a, you know that acceleration is maximum when the force is maximum.


Using Hooke's Law, F = K Δx, you know that the force is maximum when the displacement from the equilibrium (Δx) is maximum.


So the answer is that the acceleration is maximum at the maximum amplitude x = a.

A converging lens of focal length 20 cm is placed in contact with a diverging lens of focal length 30 cm. The focal length of th
kramer

Answer:

The focal lenth (F) =+10.0cm

Explanation:

The formular for combined focal length (F) is given as;

1/f = 1/f_{1} + 1/f_{2}

In this  question,

F1 = 20cm

F2  = -30cm

Plugging the values into the formuar above,

1/f = 1/20 + 1/(-30)

1/f = 0.05 - 0.033[tex]1/f = -0.017f = [tex]1/ -0.017

f = 58.82cm

i.e. the combination behaves as a converging lens (because of the postive sign) of focal length 58.82cm .

Measuring the volume of a ball that is 24cm across how can you set up an equation
BigorU [14]
The volume of every sphere is

           Volume = (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

When you say "across", I think you mean the diameter of the ball.
The radius is half of the diameter = 12 inches.

         Volume = (4/3) (pi) (12 inches)³

                       = (4/3) (pi) (1,728 cubic inches)

                       =    7,238.2 cubic inches .  (rounded)
