Answer:
A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
Explanation:
A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.
Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.
On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.
Answer:
Force = -1161.6 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 44m/s
Distance ,s = 12.5cm to m = 12.5/100 = 0.125m
Mass = 0.15kg
To find the acceleration;
We would use the third equation of motion;
V ² = U² + 2as
0² = 44² + 2*a*0.125
0 = 1936 + 0.25a
0.25a = -1936
a = -1936/0.25
Acceleration, a = -7744m/s2
Force = mass * acceleration
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Force = 0.15 * (-7744)
Force = -1161.6 Newton
The value of its force is negative because the glove decreases the velocity of the ball.
Answer:
Compared to windshield the airbag exerts much lesser force
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as change in momentum of the object when it is acted upon by a force during interval of time
<em>Impulse = Impulsive force *time</em>
I = F*Δt
If the object should be bought to rest from certain velocity there should be change in momentum. If the duration in which the momentum is increased then there would be less force applied and hence less damage.
Airbags are used to reduce the force experience by the people when they are met with accident by extending the time required to stop the momentum.
During the collision, the passenger is carried towards the<em> windshield</em> and if they are stopped by collision with wind shield the force will be larger and more damage.But if they are hit with airbag then the force will be less due to increased time.
The change is momentum will be the same with or without momentum but its the time that decides the impact of force.By making it longer the force become less.
<em>Thus compared to the windshield the airbag exerts much lesser force.</em>
<em> </em>
Explanation:
a) Power = work / time = force × distance / time
P = Fd/t
P = (85 kg × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (12 s)
P ≈ 319 W
b) P = Fd/t
0.70 (319 W) = (m × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (9.6 s)
m = 47.6 kg
