Answer:

there is no change because a physical change only changes the physical appearance of a substance

Explanation:

a chemical change is the only change that can change a substance since it changes the chemical properties of the substance, hence making a new substance

Suppose you want to design an air bag system that can protect the driver at a speed 100 km/h (60 mph) if the car hits a brick wa

When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.

Now, given that:

the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h

Assumptions:

Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
That the car's acceleration is also constant.

∴

For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:

$\mathsf{v^2 = u^2 + 2as}$

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:

$\mathsf{v^2 - u^2 =2as }$

$\mathsf{a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2 }{2s}}$

The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.

since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s

100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

$\mathsf{a = \dfrac{(0)^2 - (27.78)^2 }{2(1)}}$

$\mathsf{a = \dfrac{- 771.7284 }{2}}$

a = - 385.86 m/s²

Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;

v = u + at

where;

v = 0

-u = at

$\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-u}{a}}$

$\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-27.78}{-385.86}}$

t = 0.07 seconds

An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.

Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

The earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 N/C and directed in toward the c

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the electric charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is 3.923 coulombs and its sign is negative.

b) The force of repulsion between two people is $13.851\times 10^{6}$ newtons. The use of the earth's electric field a feasible means of flight is not feasible since electric force of repulsion would destroy human body before taking advantage of any possible flight skill.

Explanation:

a) From Second Newton's Law, we form this equation of equilibrium:

$\Sigma F = F_{E}-W = 0$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$F_{E}$ - Electrostatic force exerted on human, measured in Newton.

$W$ - Weight of the human, measured in Newton.

If we consider that human can be represented as a particle and make use of definitions of electric field and weight, the previous equation is expanded and electric charge is cleared afterwards:

$q\cdot E-m\cdot g = 0$

$q = \frac{m\cdot g}{E}$ (Eq. 2)

$E$ - Electric field, measured in Newtons per Coloumb.

$m$ - Mass, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$q$ - Electric charge, measured in Coulomb.

As electric field of the Earth is directed in toward the center of the planet, that is, in the same direction of gravity, electric field must be a negative value. If we know that $m = 60\,kg$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $E = -150\,\frac{N}{C}$ , the charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is:

$q = \frac{(60\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}{-150\,\frac{N}{C} }$

$q = -3.923\,C$

The magnitude of the electric charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is 3.923 coulombs and its sign is negative.

b) The electric force of repulsion between two people with the same charge calculated in part (a) is determined by Coulomb's Law, whose definition we proceed to use:

$F = \kappa \cdot \frac{q^{2}}{r^{2}}$ (Eq. 3)

Where:

$\kappa$ - Electrostatic constant, measured in Newton-square meter per square Coulomb.

$q$ - Electric charge, measured in Coulomb.

$r$ - Distance between two people, measured in meters.

If we know that $\kappa = 9\times 10^{9}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C^{2}}$ , $q = -3.923\,C$ and $r = 100\,m$ , then the force of repulsion between two people is:

$F = \left(9\times 10^{9}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C^{2}} \right)\cdot \left[\frac{(-3.923\,C)^{2}}{(100\,m)^{2}} \right]$

$F = 13.851\times 10^{6}\,N$

The force of repulsion between two people is $13.851\times 10^{6}$ newtons. The use of the earth's electric field a feasible means of flight is not feasible since electric force of repulsion would destroy human body before taking advantage of any possible flight skill.
