An automobile having a mass of 480 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring of constant

6.49 × 106 N/m and compresses 4.62 cm as the car is brought to rest. What was the speed of the car before impact, assuming no energy was lost during impact with the wall? Answer in units of m/s

Answer:

24.99 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

The kinetic energy of the automobile before the impact = Energy stored in bumper after impact.

1/2mv² = 1/2ke²............................ Equation 1

Where m = mass of the automobile, v =  speed of the car before impact, k = spring constant of the bumper, e = compression of the bumper after impact.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(ke²/m)............................. Equation 2

Given: k = 6.49×10⁶ N/m, e = 4.62 cm = 0.0462 m, m = 480 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

v = √(0.0462×6.49×10⁶/480)

v = √(624.6625)

v = 24.99 m/s.

Hence the speed of the car before impact = 24.99 m/s

Write any two difference between air pump and water pump.​
Alina [70]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

a)

Pumping water requires equipment with closed housing, so that water is not irrigated from the pumping point.

Fans in some applications do not require closed housings, as air irritation does not create anomalies or areas of nonconformity at the air pumping point.

b)

The pressures in water pumping equipment are usually much higher than those generated with air equipment, since the density of water is much higher than that of air, almost 1000 times higher.

A motorist runs out of gas on a level road 230m from a gas station. The driver pushes the 1140kg car to the gas station. If a 14
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The work done is 32.2kJ

Explanation:

Work is defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of application of force.

W= F*S

Given Data

distance S= 230m

force F= 140 N

Mass of car m= 1140 kg

Applying the formula for work done we have

W=  140*230\\W= 32200 J\\W= 32.2kJ

The work done by pushing the car for a distance of 230m is 32.2kJ

Infuse 1000 mL of NS. The infusion set delivers 15 gtt/mL. Give 300 mL bolus over 20 minutes and then infuse at the hourly rate
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

rate of infusion is 900 mL/hr

Explanation:

given data

Infuse I1 = 1000 mL

delivers = 15 gtt/mL

Infuse I2 = 300 mL

time t= 20 min

rate = 60 mL/hr

to find out

rate of infusion

solution

we know here we give 300 mL infuse in 20 min

so here for 20 min

rate of infusion is express as

rate of infusion = I2 / t

rate of infusion = 300 / 20

rate of infusion = 15 mL / min

rate of infusion = 15 × 60 = 900

so rate of infusion is 900 mL/hr

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

       i.e Normal \ Force(N)  = mg cos \theta

And \theta = 90 so

           N = 0

c

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position        

d

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work
