First, let's convert the initial speed of the rhino:
v_i = 50 km/h = 13.9 m/s
The acceleration of the rhino is given by:
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}= \frac{0-13.9 m/s}{0.5 s}=-27.8m/s^2
where the negative sign means it is a deceleration. We can neglect the negative sign since we are interested only in the magnitude of the force applied, which is given by Netwon's second law:
F=ma = (1700 kg)(27.8 m/s^2)=4.7 \cdot 10^4 N

The magnitude of the average force needed to bring the rhino to a stop in 0.50s is about 4.7 × 10⁴ Newton

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Newton's second law of motion states that the resultant force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass and acceleration of the object.

\large {\boxed {F = ma }

F = Force ( Newton )

m = Object's Mass ( kg )

a = Acceleration ( m )

Let us now tackle the problem !

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

mass of rhino = m = 1700 kg

initial speed of rhino = u = 50.0 km/h = 13⁸/₉ m/s

final speed of rhino = v = 0 m/s

time taken = t = 0.50 s

<u>Asked:</u>

average force = F = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

F = ma

F = m \times \frac{v - u}{t}

F = 1700 \times \frac{0 - 13\frac{8}{9}}{0.50}

F = 1700 \times \frac{-250}{9}

F \approx -4.7 \times 10^4 \texttt{ Newton}

Answer:

<u>Question 2</u>

<u>Part (a)</u>

Chlorine:  type of compound = chloride

Oxygen:  type of compound = oxide

<u>Part (b)</u>

The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form rust.

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms joined to one oxygen atom:  Di-hydrogen oxide.

<u>Question 3</u>

This circuit is in parallel.

The current in a parallel circuit splits into different branches then combines again before it goes back into the supply.

We are told that A₁ = 0.8 A

As the lamps have <u>equal resistance</u>, the current splits equally:

A₂ = 0.4 A

A₃ = 0.4 A

Then combines again:

A₄ = 0.8 A

ThIs is the same type of problem
find out the time value
3 = 1/2*a*T^2
6/10 = t^2
t = 0.77 seconds
and the distance is given 5 m
thus speed ,= distance/time
speed = 5/0.77
= 6.45 m/s
