Sam and George are riding in separate cars on the freeway. The lanes they are driving in are adjacent. We choose our coordinate

system so that both are traveling into the positive x-direction. Sam travels at 65 mph and George travels at 72 mph. (a) What is Sam’s velocity relative to George? (b) What is George’s velocity relative to Sam?

Answer:

(a) Relative speed of Sam = -7 mph

(b) Relative speed of George = 7 mph

Explanation:

We have given speed of Sam 65 mph in north direction.

And speed of George is 72 mph also in north direction

We have find the relative velocity of both Sam and George

(a) Speed of Sam relative to George = speed of Sam - speed of George = 65 -72 = -7 mph

(b) Speed of George with respect to Sam = speed of George - speed of Sam = 72-65 = 7 mph

If there is an object in top of another object, why does the upper object exert a downward normal force?​
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

This is because normal force is exerted perpendicularly to the point of contact between the upper and lower objects.  

Explanation:

This is because the upper object is still subject to gravitational pull. Therefore, the amount of force it exerts on the lower object due to gravity will be equal to the normal force that acts in the negative direction of gravitational force. Additionally, normal force is evident because the upper object will not go into the lower object.

⦁ A car going 50 m/s is brought to rest in a distance of 20.0 m as it strikes a pile of dirt. How large an average force is exer
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 50 m/s

distance traveled by the car, s = 20 m

final velocity of the after coming to rest, v = 0

mass of the passenger, m = 90 kg

Determine the acceleration of the car as it hit the pile of dirt;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = 50² + (2 x 20)a

0 = 2500 + 40a

40a = -2500

a = -2500/40

a = -62.5 m/s²

The deceleration of the car is 62.5 m/s²

The force exerted on the passenger by the backward action of the car is calculated as follows;

F = ma

F = 90 x 62.5

F = 5625 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
