if you crash your car how could you decrease the damage to you or the car using the concept of impulse

kotykmax [81]

Explanation:

Crumple zones are sections in cars that are designed to crumple up when the car encounters a collision. Crumple zones minimize the effect of the force in an automobile collision in two ways. By crumpling, the car is less likely to rebound upon impact, thus minimizing the momentum change and the impulse.

A 2.0-kg object moving with a velocity of 5.0 m/s in the positive x direction strikes and sticks to a 3.0-kg object moving with

Andrej [43]

Answer:

5.4 J.

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the object, m = 2 Kg

initial speed, u = 5 m/s

mass of another object,m' = 3 kg

initial speed of another orbit,u' = 2 m/s

KE lost after collusion = ?

Final velocity of the system

Using conservation of momentum

m u + m'u' = (m + m') V

2 x 5 + 3 x 2 = ( 2 + 3 )V

16 = 5 V

V = 3.2 m/s

Initial KE = $\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}m'u'^2$

= $\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 5^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 3 \times 2^2$

= 31 J

Final KE = $\dfrac{1}{2} (m+m')V^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 5 \times 3.2^2 = 25.6 J$

Loss in KE = 31 J - 25.6 J = 5.4 J.
