An automobile having a mass of 1,000 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring with cons

tant 5.90 ✕ 106 N/m and is compressed 2.63 cm as the car is brought to rest. What was the speed of the car before impact, assuming no energy is lost in the collision with the wall?

Answer:

v=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Assuming no energy lost, according to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the automobile becomes potential energy after the crash:

K=U\\\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}

Here m is the automobile's mass, v is the speed of the car before impact, k is the "bumper" constant and x is the compression of the bumper due to the collision. Solving for v:

v=x\sqrt\frac{k}{m}\\v=2.63*10^{-2}m\sqrt{\frac{5.9*10^6\frac{N}{m}}{10^3kg}}\\v=2.02\frac{m}{s}

Answer:

(1) An object that’s negatively charged has more electrons than protons.

(2) An object that’s positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.

(3) An object that’s not charged has the same number of electrons than protons.

Explanation :

Objects have three subatomic particles that are Electrons, protons, and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and electrons rotate or move outside the nucleus. Naturally, protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge, and electrons are negatively charged.

Therefore, an object that is negatively charged has more electrons than protons.  An object that is not charged has the same number of electrons than protons. An object that is positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.

What makes the north star, polaris, special?
Mama L [17]
It's the only star in the sky (visible from the northern hemisphere) that never seems to move. It stays at almost exactly the same point in the sky, while the other stars all circle around it once a day.

If you were to build a pipe organ with open-tube pipes spanning the range from 25 hz to 19 khz. The speed of sound in air is 343
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The length of the shortest pipe which is l2 will be 0.018m

<h3>What is Length?</h3>

This is defined as the measurement or extent of a substance from end to end. The formula is shown below:

L = v/f where v is speed , f is frequency

f1 = 25hz , f2 = 19khz

The length for both sides is seen below:

l1 = 343/25 = 13.72m

l2 = 343/19000 = 0.018m.

The length of the shortest pipe is therefore 0.018m.
