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.
Answer:
a) x = 40 t
, y = 39 t
, z = 6 + 32 t - 16 t
², b) x = 80 feet
, y = 78 feet
, the ball came into the field
Explanation:
a) This is a projectile launch exercise, where in the x and y axes there is no acceleration and in the z axis the acceleration of the acceleration of gravity, let's write the equations of motion in each axis
Since the cast is in the center of the field, let's place the coordinate system
x₀ = 0
y₀ = 0
z₀ = 6 feet
x-axis (towards end zone, GOAL zone)
x = xo + v₀ₓ t
x = 40 t
y-axis (field width)
y = y₀ + 
t
y = 39 t
z axis (vertical)
z = z₀ + v_{oz} t - ½ g t²
z = 6 + 32 t - ½ 32 t²
z = 6 + 32 t - 16 t
²
b) The player catches the ball at the same height as it came out, so we can find the time it takes to arrive
z = 6
6 = 6 + 32 t - 16 t²
(t - 2)t = 0
t=0 s
t= 2 s
The ball position
x = 40 2
x = 80 feet
y = 39 2
y = 78 feet
the dimensions of the field from the coordinate system (center of the field) are
x_total = 150 feet
y _total = 80 feet
so we can see that the ball came into the field
Answer:
Either B or D. The answer itself is 2.
Explanation:
The equation for the kinetic energy would be 1/2*mv^2.
When m is doubled, we can plug in 1 and 2 to compare our answers.
Plugging in 1 for mass would give us the answer 1/2*v^2.
Plugging in 2 for mass would give us v^2. This means that the velocity was multiplied by 2, meaning that the answer is it is multiplied by 2.
I am not sure which answer is correct since there seems to be two answer choices with 2 in it, but the answer is either B or D (I will call it ABCD because I do not want to cause confusion by saying 2 multiple times).
