Suppose you want to design an air bag system that can protect the driver at a speed 100 km/h (60 mph) if the car hits a brick wa
34kurt

When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.

Now, given that:

  • the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
  • after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h

Assumptions:

  • Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
  • That the car's acceleration is also constant.

∴

For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:

\mathsf{v^2 = u^2 + 2as}

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:

\mathsf{v^2 - u^2 =2as }

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2 }{2s}}

The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.

since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s

100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{(0)^2 - (27.78)^2 }{2(1)}}

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{- 771.7284 }{2}}

a = - 385.86 m/s²

Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;

v = u + at

where;

v = 0

-u = at

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-u}{a}}

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-27.78}{-385.86}}

t = 0.07 seconds

An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.

Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

Consider dropping a ball from rest. This ball moves from astate of high gravitational potential energy to one of lowgravitationa
Leni [432]

Answer:

From the negative to the positive cable.

Explanation:

The electrons have negative charge, which means that the negative terminal of the battery will suply the electrons, thus they are present in excess on the negative cable and will jump from it to the positive cable. This current direction is called real current.

single goose sounds a loud warning when an intruder enters the farmyard. Some distance from the goose, you measure the sound lev
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The sound level of the 26 geese is  Z_{26}= 96.15 dB

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sound level is Z_1 =  81.0 \ dB

     The number of geese is N = 26

Generally the intensity level of sound is mathematically represented as

        The intensity of sound level in dB  for one  goose is mathematically represented as

                       Z_1 = 10 log [\frac{I}{I_O} ]

Where I_o is the  threshold level of intensity with value  I_o = 1*10^{-12} \  W/m^2

            I is the intensity for one goose in W/m^2

For 26 geese the intensity would be  

          I_{26} = 26 * I

   Then  the intensity of 26 geese in dB is  

              Z_{26} = 10 log[\frac{26 I }{I_o} ]

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 *  [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26  \ \ ) *   (\ \  10 log [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

 From the law of logarithm we have that

              Z_{26} = 10 log 26 +  10 log [\frac{I}{I_0} ]

                    = 14.15 + 82

                    Z_{26}= 96.15 dB

A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec            

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car a_1=5.9m/sec^2

Acceleration of the stock car a_2=3.6m/sec^2

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So s_1=s_2

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So \frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m

(c) From first equation pf motion v = u+at

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec
