What traits did Sir William Gilbert have that made him a good scientist?

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.

How do I solve such problem???

pashok25 [27]

As far as I'm concerned, this is a bogus question, or at least a severely corrupted one.

The three numbers given can NOT all be true on Earth.

-- It rolled off the table at 7.6 m/s . By golly, there you are! Its initial horizontal velocity is 7.6 m/s, and it has no vertical velocity until it leaves the table.

-- There are no horizontal forces that we're aware of acting on the object. So it maintains the same horizontal velocity for the rest of the story. It's 10.5m away from the table in (10.5 m) / (7.8 m/s) = 1.35 second .

-- Vertically, it's just an object dropped from 17.6m off the floor. Shockingly, the distance it falls in time 'T' is (1/2 g) T². In 1.35 second, that's 8.88 meters ! . . . only about halfway to the floor !

-- In order to fall 17.6 m to the floor, it would need 1.89 seconds. In that length of time, however, it would travel (7.8 m/s) x (1.89 s) = 14.78 m away from the base of the table.

So you see, either . . .

-- the table is NOT 17.6m tall, or

-- the object does NOT roll off of the table at 7.8 m/s, or

-- it does NOT land 10.5 m away from the base of the table.

OR . . .

-- the table is not on Earth, and gravity is not 9.8 m/s² !

We often see questions posted on Brainly with not enough given information, OR with some information given that's not needed because it's not involved the answer.

THIS one is different, and it's unusual. In this one, we have too much given information, we can't ignore any of it because it's all related, but it's inconsistent and it CAN't all be true.

(Unless the whole story takes place on a mystery planet that is not Earth. Which I'm not going to take the time and effort right now to figure out what the acceleration of gravity has to be in order to make all of the given information compatible.)

How can two machines appear identical and yet not have the same actual mechanical advantage

STatiana [176]

There are many factors which contributes as to how a machine will be processing the input energy and convert it to output energy. Even with identical mechanism, these factors will have major effect on the output. Some factors are deflection, friction and wear. Some system maybe exposed to poor lubrication than the other which'll produce more friction and wear thus lower mechanical advantage.

List the three types of symbiotic relationships. For each type of symbiotic relationship, explain how the two organisms are affe

Virty [35]

The three major types of symbiosis are mutualism, where both species benefit, commensalism, where one species benefits and the other is unaffected, and parasitism, where one species benefits and the other is harmed. Symbiotic relationships can occur within an organism's body or outside of it. Examples of mutualism include the relationship between single-celled organisms or animals that incorporate algae into their bodies. They give the algae necessary nutrients, and in return receive chemical energy from the photosynthetic algae. Animals that have this sort of relationship include some sponges, sea anemones and clams. Examples of commensalism include remora fish attaching to the bodies of sharks and eating scraps of food that escape their jaws, and barnacles living on the jaws of whales with a similar feeding strategy. Plants have commensal relationships as well, such as many orchids that grow on taller plants and benefit from the additional sunlight they obtain, without actually stealing nutrients from the host plant. Parasitic relationships are many, and parasites include all disease-causing organisms. This category also includes insects such as fleas that suck the blood of hosts externally. Parasitism is a very efficient strategy for organisms, and parasites often lose many of the features of non-parasitic life forms, instead relying on their hosts for many of the functions of life.
