You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.
First, convert 60 mph to m/s:
60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s
Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.
free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)
H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m
If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.
Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.
Assuming no other forces are acting on the wheelbarrow, it must be stationary.
Answer:
Seismic attenuation describes the energy loss experienced by seismic waves as they propagate. It is controlled by the temperature, composition, melt content, and volatile content of the rocks through which the waves travel.
Explanation:
I think the answer is periodic motion.
Displacement is a vector quantity. So, you incorporate the vector calculations when you try to determine the resultant vector. This is the shortest path from the starting point to the endpoint. If they are moving on one axis only, you use sign conventions. For motions moving to the left, use the negative sign. If it's moving to the right, then use the positive sign. Now, it the object moves 2 km to the left, and 2 km also to the right, the displacement is zero.
Displacement = 2 km - 2km = 0
Generally, the equation is:
<span>Displacement = Distance of motion to the right - Distance of motion to the left</span>
