This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Seatbelts provide two main advantages in a car accident (1) they keep you from being thrown from the car and (2) they reduce the force that acts on your during the collision to survivable levels. This second benefit can be illustrated by comparing the net force encountered by a driver in a head-on collision with and without a seat beat.  

1) A driver wearing a seat beat decelerates at roughly the same rate as the car it self. Since many modern cars have a "crumble zone" built into the front of the car, let us assume that the car decelerates of a distance of 1.1 m. What is the net force acting on a 70 kg driver who is driving at 18 m/sec and comes to rest in this distance?

Fwith belt =

2) A driver who does not wear a seat belt continues to move at the initial velocity until she or he hits something solid (e.g the steering wheel) and then comes to rest in a very short distance. Find the net force on a driver without seat belts who comes to rest in 1.1 cm.

Fwithout belt =

Answer:

1) The Net force on the driver with seat belt is 10.3 KN

2) the Net force on the driver without seat belts who comes to rest in 1.1 cm is 1030.9 KN

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

from the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as

we solve for a

a = (v² - u²)/2s ----- let this be equation 1

we know that, F = ma ------- let this be equation 2

so from equation 1 and 2

F = m( (v² - u²)/2s )

where m is mass, a is acceleration, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity and s is the displacement.

1)

Wearing sit belt, car decelerates of a distance of 1.1 m. What is the net force acting on a 70 kg driver who is driving at 18 m/sec and comes to rest in this distance.

i.e, m = 70 kg, u = 18 m/s, v = 0 { since it came to rest }, s = 1.1 m

so we substitute the given values into the equation;

F = 70( ((0)² - (18)²) / 2 × 1.1 )

F = 70 × ( -324 / 2.4 )

F = 70 × -147.2727

F = -10309.09 N

F = -10.3 KN

The negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite compared to the direction of the motion.

Fwith belt =  10.3 KN

Therefore, Net force of the driver is 10.3 KN

2)

No sit belt,  

m = 70 kg, u = 18 m/s, v = 0 { since it came to rest }, s = 1.1 cm = 1.1 × 10⁻² m

we substitute

F = 70( ((0)² - (18)²) / 2 × 1.1 × 10⁻² )

F = 70 × ( -324 / 0.022 )

F = 70 × -14727.2727

F = -1030909.08 N

F = -1030.9 KN

The negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite compared to the direction of the motion.

Fwithout belt = 1030.9 KN

Therefore, the net force on the driver without seat belts who comes to rest in 1.1 cm is 1030.9 KN

Answer:

25m/s

Steps:

<em> First, The equation v= u + a * t shows us what we need to find, (the finale velocity). </em>

<em />

Second, we substitute the values given:

v= 9m/s + 4m/s2 * 4s

Last, We calculate the values:

Multiply 4m/s2 * 4s = 16m/s  

Add 9m/s + 16m/s

butalik [34]

The complete question is:

Study the scenario. A firework is ignited, and explodes with a flash and a loud bang as it is blown apart. The system consists of: the firework, the earth, and the air. which choice best describes how energy is transformed in the system?

A) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. the energy is in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments of the firecracker that are launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal energy.

B) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into mechanical energy.

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

D) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. The energy is taken in in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy is transformed into thermal energy.

Answer:

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

Explanation:

Energy is released from the system, not absorbed.

All the sound, light and movement of the debris is as a result of energy transformation from the chemical energy.

Eventually, most of the energy are finally wasted away as heat energy.

Some of the energy is used up by the flying particles from the fireworks.

Two planes leave wichita at noon. one plane flies east 30 mi/h faster than the other plane, which is flying west. at what time w
scoundrel [369]
You have to take note of the individual directions of the plane. Since one is heading east, and the other is heading west, the planes are heading at opposite directions. So, it means that their distance between each other would be equal to 1,200 miles which accounts for the sum of their individual distances. The equation is as follows:

Total Distance = Distance of slower plane + Distance of faster plane
1,200 miles = st + (30+s)(t)
where
s is the speed of the slower plane and t is the time. Since both are not given, the final answer would just be in terms of s.
1,200 = t(s + 30 + s)
t = 1200/(30+2s)
t = 600/(15+s)

A 100 N force causes an object to accelerate at 2 m/s2. What is the mass of the<br> object?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

50 kg

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 100 N

Acceleration ( a ) = 2 m/s^2

To find : Mass ( m ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

m = F / a

= 100 / 2

m = 50 kg

Therefore, the mass of the object is 50 kg.

If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, the accuracy in measuring its velocity will Group of answer c
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The correct answer is Option A (decrease).

Explanation:

  • According to Heisenberg's presumption of unpredictability, it's impossible to ascertain a quantum state viewpoint as well as momentum throughout tandem.
  • Also, unless we have accurate estimations throughout the situation, we will have a decreased consistency throughout the velocity as well as vice versa though too.

Other given choices are not connected to the given query. Thus the above is the right answer.
