Answer:
0.775 m
Explanation:
As the car collides with the bumper, all the kinetic energy of the car (K) is converted into elastic potential energy of the bumper (U):
where we have
is the spring constant of the bumper
x is the maximum compression of the bumper
is the mass of the car
is the speed of the car
Solving for x, we find the maximum compression of the spring:
Answer:
IMA = 2.5 metres
EFFICIENCY = 80%
Explanation:
The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.
The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.
From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort = 5metres
The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres
IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE
IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters
Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA
AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5
EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA
EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%
EFFICIENCY = 80%
Answer:
51.85m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of ball = 0.0459kg
Force = 2380N
Time taken = 0.001s
Unknown:
Speed of the ball afterwards = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion:
F = m x
F is the force
m is the mass
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
2380 = 0.0459 x
0.0459v = 2.38
v = 51.85m/s
