How much acceleration can most humans stand before they pass out?

1 answer:

4 0

Normal humans can withstand no more than 9 g's, and even that for only a few seconds. When undergoing an acceleration of 9 g's, your body feels nine times heavier than usual, blood rushes to the feet, and the heart can't pump hard enough to bring this heavier blood to the brain.

A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. Friction is negligible. The person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. The total

Lynna [10]

Explanation:

Given Data

Total mass=93.5 kg

Rock mass=0.310 kg

Initially wagon speed=0.540 m/s

rock speed=16.5 m/s

To Find

The speed of the wagon

Solution

As the wagon rolls, momentum is given as

P=mv

where

m is mass

v is speed

put the values

P=93.5kg × 0.540 m/s

P =50.49 kg×m/s

Now we have to find the momentum of rock

momentum of rock = mv

momentum of rock = (0.310kg)×(16.5 m/s)

momentum of rock =5.115 kg×m/s

From the conservation of momentum we can find the wagons momentum So

wagon momentum=50.49 -5.115 = 45.375 kg×m/s

Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)

Speed of wagon=45.375/(93.5-0.310)

Speed of wagon= 0.487 m/s

Throwing rock backward,

momentum of wagon = 50.49+5.115 = 55.605 kg×m/s

Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)

speed of wagon = 55.605 kg×m/s/(93.5kg-0.310kg)

speed of wagon= 0.5967 m/s

Why might an electromagnet be used to pick up old cars in junk yards?

s344n2d4d5 [400]

I think the correct answer would be that because electromagnets are powerful and can be turned off and on anytime. Electromagnet is a magnet in which the magnetic field is made by the electric current that is induced to the system.

The engine in an imaginary sports car can provide constant power to the wheels over a range of speeds from 0 to 70 miles per hou

puteri [66]

Answer:

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

Explanation:

Given:

Range of speed during which constant power is supplied to the wheels by the car is $0\ mph\ to\ 70\ mph$ .

Initial velocity of the car, $v_i=0\ mph$

final velocity of the car during the test, $v_f=32\ mph=14.3052\ m.s^{-1}$

Time taken to accelerate form zero to 32 mph at full power, $t=1.2\ s$

initial velocity of the car, $u_i=0\ mph$

final desired velocity of the car, $u_f=64\ mph=28.6105\ m.s^{-1}$

Now the acceleration of the car:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

$a=\frac{14.3052-0}{1.2}$

$a=11.921\ m.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation of motion:

$u_f=u_i+a.t$

$64=0+11.921\times t$

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

50 POINTS AND BRAINLEIST A Ferris wheel has a mechanical advantage of ___________________________ one and the trade off is that

kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) The same as one

Explanation:

Because the Ferris wheel has two bars at the side that keep it in place so it doesn't roll away. The Ferris wheel only moves in one place. If the ferris wheel did roll then you would have a greater than one. If it did roll it would be dangerous.
