A truck hits a brick wall with a force of 100000 kg ms² the truck comes to a stop in 0.5 s what is the impulse
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Impulse = 50,000 J

Explanation:

Given: force = 100,000 kg ms^2 or N; time = 0.5 s

Unknown: impulse = ?

Equation: impulse = (force)(time)

Substitute: impulse = (100,000 kg ms^2 or N)(0.5 s)

Solution: impusle = 50,000 kg ms^2 or J

Transverse thrusters are used to make large ships fully maneuverable at low speeds without tugboat assistance. A transverse thru
suter [353]

Answer:

Thrust developed = 212.3373 kN

Explanation:

Assuming the ship is stationary

<u>Determine the Thrust developed</u>

power supplied to the propeller ( Punit ) = 1900 KW

Duct distance ( diameter ; D  ) = 2.6 m

first step : <em>calculate the area of the duct </em>

A = π/4 * D^2

   =  π/4 * ( 2.6)^2  = 5.3092 m^2

<em>next : calculate the velocity of propeller</em>

Punit = (A*v*β ) / 2  * V^2     ( assuming β = 999 kg/m^3 ) also given V1 = 0

∴V^3 = Punit * 2 / A*β

         = ( 1900 * 10^3 * 2 ) / ( 5.3092 * 999 )

hence V2 = 8.9480 m/s

<em>Finally determine the thrust developed </em>

F = Punit / V2

  = (1900 * 10^3) / ( 8.9480)

  = 212.3373 kN

Would time travel ever be possible? If so how and through what extensive process would it might be possible.
makkiz [27]

Answer:

There are two ways we may, one day, be able to time travel forwards.

You may have heard of Cryogenics. This is when someone who’s died is frozen instead of being buried or cremated. The theory is they can be “woken up” in the future when we have the technology to bring them back to life. Or a machine or device could be developed so that some people age more slowly than others around them. This way they’d live longer and see a future beyond the average person’s life span.  

Another very different way of travelling into the future is more like what you’d see in science fiction. This is might involve travelling in a rocket or spaceship at a very high speed, close to the speed of light. “We can’t establish equality with the speed of light but it is possible, in theory, to travel nearly as fast as the speed of light,” adds Dr Steane.  

So imagine you’re in a spaceship travelling very fast away from the Earth and you stay in orbit for a year. You would age at the same rate as if you were still on the Earth, by a year, but when you returned, the earth may have aged hundreds of years. “This is way beyond the technology we have at the moment,” he says. “But... in theory, it is possible.”

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

Ben franklin showed that 1 teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.50 acre of still water. if you know that 1.0 x 104m2 = 2.47 acres
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

To solve for the thickness of the latter of oil, we can simply divide the volume by the total surface area:

Thickness = Volume / Surface Area

We are both given the volume and the surface area, all we have to do now is to convert the units in like terms so that we can cancel those out.

Surface Area = 0.50 acres (1.0 x 10^4 m^2 / 2.47 acres)

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2

Further converting this into cm:

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2 (100 cm / m)^2

Surface Area = 20,242,914.98 cm^2

 

Therefore the thickness is:

Thickness = 5.0 cm^3 / 20,242,914.98 cm^2

Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-7 cm

or

<span>Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-9 m = 2.47 nm = 24.7 A</span>
