Answer:

-100000 N.

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and it's acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton(N). The Formula of force is given as,

F = ma ........................... Equation 1

Where F = Average force exerted on the car, m = mass of the car, acceleration of the car, a = acceleration of the car.

a = (v-u)/t..................... Equation 2

Where v = Final velocity, u = Initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t............. Equation 3

Given: m = 1500 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s (brought to rest), t = 0.3 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 1500(0-20)/0.3

F = 1500(-20)/0.3

F = -100000 N.

Note: The negative sign is due to the fact that the force exerted on the car by the pole is equal and opposite the force of the car.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Lifetime = 4.928 x 10^-32 s  

Explanation:

(1 / v2 – 1 / c2) x2 = T2

T2 = (1/ 297900000 – 1 / 90000000000000000) 0.0000013225

T2 = (3.357 x 10^-9 x 1.11 x 10^-17) 1.3225 x 10^-6

T2 = (3.726 x 10^-26) 1.3225 x 10^-6 = 4.928 x 10^-32 s

What two quantities must stay the same in order for an object to have a constant velocity?
pentagon [3]
<span>Velocity is a vector and it has both speed and direction. It takes a force to change direction just as it does to change speed</span>. In order to have a constant velocity the object must maintain a constant direction and speed. Hope this answers the questions. Have a nice day.
