A cabinet weighing 100 N is placed on a floor. The amount of contact area between the cabinet and the floor is 0.5 m2. How much

pressure does the cabinet exert on the floor
Physics

Answer:

p = 200Pa

Explanation:

From its definition, the pressure depends on the force exerted on the floor by the cabinet, and the perpendicular area in which it is applied. This is expressed in the formula:

p=\frac{F}{A}

Since the force the cabinet exerts on the floor is its weight, we can use the given values to calculate the pressure exerted on the floor:

p=\frac{100N}{0.5m^{2} } =200Pa

In words, the pressure the cabinet exerts on the floor is 200Pa.

Consider a railroad bridge over a highway. A train passing over the bridge dislodges a loose bolt from the bridge, which proceed
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The railroad tracks are 13 m above the windshield (12 m without intermediate rounding).

Explanation:

First, let´s calculate the time it took the driver to travel the 27 m to the point of impact.

The equation for the position of the car is:

x = v · t

Where

x = position at time t

v = velocity

t = time

x = v · t

27 m = 17 m/s · t

27 m / 17 m/s = t

t = 1.6 s

Now let´s calculate the distance traveled by the bolt in that time. Let´s place the origin of the frame of reference at the height of the windshield:

The position of the bolt will be:

y = y0 + 1/2 · g · t²

Where

y = height of the bolt at time t

y0 = initial height of the bolt

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = time

Since the origin of the frame of reference is located at the windshield, at time 1.6 s the height of the bolt will be 0 m (impact on the windshield). Then, we can calculate the initial height of the bolt which is the height of the railroad tracks above the windshield:

y = y0 + 1/2 · g · t²

0 = y0 -1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (1.6 s)²

y0 = 13 m
