Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Cell Death

Explanation:

Cell death is defined as the biological process which ceases the function of the cell to carry out. This can be caused due to the formation of new cells in place of old cells.

Or it can be cause due to some serious disease or may be caused due to the injury or due to the death of that organism to which these cells belong.

And another case is that when X-ray photon interact with the human cell while it passes through the cell, it   will damage the cell and cease it to function well and a more drastic condition occurs and that cell become dead.

An automobile having a mass of 1,000 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring with cons
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

v=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Assuming no energy lost, according to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the automobile becomes potential energy after the crash:

K=U\\\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}

Here m is the automobile's mass, v is the speed of the car before impact, k is the "bumper" constant and x is the compression of the bumper due to the collision. Solving for v:

v=x\sqrt\frac{k}{m}\\v=2.63*10^{-2}m\sqrt{\frac{5.9*10^6\frac{N}{m}}{10^3kg}}\\v=2.02\frac{m}{s}

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

At a deceleration of 60g, or 60 times the acceleration due to gravity a person will travel a distance of 0.38 m before coing to a complete stop

Explanation:

The maximum acceleration of the airbag = 60 g, and the duration of the acceleration = 36 ms or 36/1000 s or 0.036 s

To find out how far (in meters) does a person travel in coming to a complete stop in 36 ms at a constant acceleration of 60g

we write out the equation of motion thus.

S = ut + 0.5at²

wgere

S = distance to come to complete stop

u = final velocoty = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = 60g = 60 × 9.81

t = time = 36 ms

as can be seen, the above equation calls up the given variable as a function of the required variable thus

S = 0×0.036 + 0.5×60×9.81×0.036² = 0.38 m

At 60g, a person will travel a distance of 0.38 m before coing to a complete stop
