A car's bumper is designed to withstand a 6.84 km/h (1.9-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of t

he car. The bumper cushions the shock by absorbing the force over a distance. Calculate the magnitude of the average force on a bumper that collapses 0.285 m while bringing a 830 kg car to rest from an initial speed of 1.9 m/s.

Answer:

F = 5.256 x 10^{3} N

Explanation:

From the work energy theorem we know that:

The net work done on a particle equals the change in the particles kinetic energy:

W = F.d, ΔK =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{f}   - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{i}  , F.d = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{f} -\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{i}

where:

W = work done by the force

F = Force

d = Distance travelled

m = Mass of the car

vf, vi = final and initial velocity of the car

kf, ki = final and initial kinetic energy of the car

Given the parameters;

m = 830kg

vi = 1.9 m/s

vf = 0 km/h

d = 0.285 m

Inserting the information we have:

F.d = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{f}   - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{i}

F = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{f}   - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}_{i} }{d}

F = \frac{ 0   - \frac{1}{2}  X830 X 1.9^{2} }{0.285}

F = 5.256 x 10^{3} N

A 5 kg ball is sitting on top of a hill. It has a Potential Energy of 6000J. What is the height of the ball?​
natali 33 [55]

Explanation:

mass=5 kg

potential energy=6000j

height=?

Now

potential energy =m.g.h

or 6000=5*9.8*h

or 6000=49h

or 6000÷49=h

or h= 122.45m

Three collinear forces,F1=45N west,F2=63N east and an unknown force F3 are applied to an object.The resultant force of the three
Greeley [361]

Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is

<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N

which is positive, so it's directed east.

To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that

18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N

<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N

So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.

Police radar equipment is used to detect the speed of objects. In one trial, the radar equipment records a stationary tree as tr
Brut [27]

Answer:

reliability

accuracy

Explanation:

If a reading of a measurement is consistently the same then the measurement is reliable.

If a reading of measurement is close the actual value of the measurement then the reading is accurate.

Here, a stationary tree shows reading 6 mph once and 0 mph another instant. So, neither the reading of a measurement is consistent not the reading of measurement is close the actual value.

Hence, the radar has problems in its reliability and accuracy
