During an auto accident, the vehicle's air bags deploy and slow down the passengers more gently than if they had hit the windshi

eld or steering wheel. According to safety standards, the bags produce a maximum acceleration of 60 g, but lasting for only 36 {\rm ms} (or less).
How far (in meters) does a person travel in coming to a complete stop in 36 {\rm ms} at a constant acceleration of 60g?

Answer:

0.3814128 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 36 ms

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 60g

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow u=v-at\\\Rightarrow u=0-(-9.81\times 60)\times 36\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow u=21.1896\ m/s

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-21.1896^2}{2\times -9.81\times 60}\\\Rightarrow s=0.3814128\ m

The distance the person traveled is 0.3814128 m

Three resistors of 4.0 ohms, 6.0 ohms, and 12 ohms are connected in parallel to an applied potential difference of 12 volts. (1)
lesantik [10]

Answer:

(1) 2 ohms

(2) 12 Volts Across each resistor

(3) I₁ = 3 A, I₂ = 2 A, I₃ = 1 A

Explanation:

From the question,

(1) Equilvalent Resistance (Rt) for parallel connection is

1/Rt =(1/R₁)+ (1/R₂) + (1/R₃)

Where R₁ = 4 ohms, R₂ = 6 ohms, R₃ = 12 ohms

1/Rt = 1/4 +1/6 +1/12

1/Rt = (3+2+1)/12

1/Rt = 6/12

1/Rt = 1/2

Rt = 2 ohms.

(2) Since the resistors are connected in parallel, They will have the same potential difference across them,

Hence the P.d across each resistor = 12 Volts.

(3) For R₁,

I₁ = V/R₁ = 12/4

I₁ = 3 A.

For R₂,

I₂ = V/R₂

I₂ = 12/6

I₂ = 2 A

For R₃,

I₃ = V/R₃

I₃ = 12/12

I₃ = 1 A

A solid object has a density of 2.85 g/cm3. According to Archimedes, what can be done to make this object float in water?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
2: It's not just the capillary action, but the pull from transpiration (the evaporation of water from the tree) that is used to pull water up from the roots. 

<span>The second question needs context. Strong bonds alone won't cause tension. I don't see how adhesion is different. High vapour pressure could do it, but it's the difference in pressures that'd cause tension (and the resistance of that pressure by the surface). So, a low and high pressure would be needed. Poorly worded question :( </span>

<span>1: "Adhesion is the tendency of certain dissimilar molecules to cling together due to attractive forces." [1] </span>

<span>3: The other three answere would not work. Think of a boat. </span>

<span>3: If you push gas, it will be compressed(get smaller). If you push liquid it will push something else. Thus, liquids are good for transferring force. This is a hydraulic system.</span>

A certain material has a mass of 565 g while occupying 50 cm3 of space. What is this material?
EastWind [94]

<u>Answer:</u>

Lead

<u>Explanation:</u>

To get the density of the material, the formula would be:

mass divided by volume which is given by d = \frac { m } { v }.

Here in this problem, we are given a mass of 565 g which occupies a volume of 50 cm^3.

So plugging the data in the above formula to find the density:

Density = \frac { 565 } { 50 } = 11.3

From the table, we can see that the material is Lead which has a density of 11.3c/cm^3.
