This is a defective, misleading question, and should never be asked in a Physics class.
There is no such thing as the force due to the impact.
If you know how long it takes the clam to stop once it begins to hit the dirt,
then you can calculate the impulse transferred to it, and tease a force out
of that. But the question doesn't give us the time.
It depends on the material of the surface. Was the clam dropped onto dirt ?
Into a dumpster ? Onto grass ? Concrete ? Styrofoam ? Mud ? The answer
is different in each case, and we still need to know the short length of time
AFTER it first encountered whatever surface brought it to rest.
I would kick this question back to the Physics teacher. It's meaningless,
and the longer you try to work on it, the more nonsense you'll plant into
your head that'll need to be dug out later.
Answer:
1,3
Explanation:
As the acceleration is -10m/s^2 , that means deceleration is occurring. That means, the object is slowing down.
v=u-at
or, 0=80-10t
or, t=8 seconds
So, the object will stop in 8 seconds.
So, the correct answers are 1 and 3.
Hope, this helps you.
Answer:
The time is 0.5 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Voltage V= 12.00 V
Inductance L= 1.20 H
Current = 3.00 A
Increases rate = 8.00 A
We need to calculate change in current
We need to calculate the time interval
Using formula of inductor
Where, 
= change in current
V = voltage
L = inductance
Put the value into the formula
Hence, The time is 0.5 sec.
Answer:
R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the person = 60.3-kg
mass of the bullet = 10 gram = 0.01 Kg
velocity of bullet = 389 m/s
angle made with the horizontal = 45°
using conservation of momentum.
M v + m u = ( M + m ) V
60.3 x 0 + 0.01 x 389 = (60.3 + 0.01) V
V = 0.0645 m/s
for calculation of range
R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m
the distance actor fall is R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m
Elastic potential energy.
When you stretch a rubber band it has the "potential" to do work, to fly in a given direction. In doing so it changes it's elastic potential energy to kinetic energy.
