A steel safe with mass M falls onto a concrete floor. Just before hitting the floor, its speed is vi . It hits the floor without

rebounding, and ends up being d shorter than before. Find the magnitude of the (average) force exerted by the floor on the safe while it is being deformed. You can assume this force is a constant during the short time it takes for the safe to deform. Ignore the effects of gravity.

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = vi

final velocity, v = 0

distance = d

mass of safe = M

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as

0 = vi² - 2 ad

a = vi²/2d

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = M x vi²/2d

F = Mvi²/2d

What is the kinetic energy of a 1200 kg object that is moving at a speed of 24m/s?
n200080 [17]
Here, K.E. = 1/2 * mv²

So, K.E. = 1/2 * (1200) * (24)²

K.E. = 1/2 * 1200 * 576

K.E. = 600 * 576

K.E. = 345,600 J

Hope this helps!

You're having a hard time pushing a refrigerator across the kitchen floor. The force of your own push is 993 N. The force of fri
Helen [10]

Answer:

The acceleration of the refrigerator is a= 0.056 ms^{-2}

Explanation:

The expression of the equation of the net force acting on the refrigerator is as follows;

F-f= ma

Here, F is the applied force, f is the force of friction, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

It is given in the problem that you're having a hard time pushing a refrigerator having mass 355 kg across the kitchen floor. The force of your own push is 993 N. The force of friction opposing your own push is 973 N.

Put F= 993, f= 973 N and m = 355 kg in the above expression of the equation to calculate the acceleration of the refrigerator.

993 - 973 = (355)a

20 = 355 a

a= 0.056 ms^{-2}

Therefore, the acceleration of the refrigerator is a= 0.056 ms^{-2}.

The force attraction between two objects, does what, as the distance between them increases?
gregori [183]

Decreases

Explanation:

The force of attraction between two objects will decrease as the distance between them increases.

This is in compliance with newtons law of universal gravitation.

The force of attraction between the two bodies is a gravitational force.

According to newton's law of universal gravitation "the force of attraction between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".

 We see that from the last statement, the force of attraction between  is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them.

          F ∞ \frac{1}{r^{2} }

r is the distance between them.
