Most persons are of the belief that the old time hard or solid iron cars are much safer in collisions than the new model softer

cars. But how can newer, softer cars be safer in a collision, considering momentum?

Softer cars will crumple better in a collision- they absorb more of the impact force and therefore are safer

A golf club hits a stationary 0.05kg golf ball with and average force of 5.0 x 10^3 newtons accelerating the ball at 44 meters p
maxonik [38]

Answer: The magnitude of impulse imparted to the ball by the golf club is 2.2 N seconds

Explanation:

Force applied on the golf ball = 5.0\times 10^3 N

Mass of the ball = 0.05 kg

Velocity with which ball is accelerating = 44 m/s

Time period over which forece applied = t

f=ma=\frac{m\times v}{t}

t=\frac{0.05 kg\times 44m/s}{5.0\times 10^3 N}=4.4\times 10^{-4} seconds

Impulse=(force)\times (time)=f\times t = 5.0\times 10^3\times 4.4\times 10^{-4} seconds=2.2 Newton seconds

The magnitude of impulse imparted to the ball by the golf club is 2.2 N seconds

2. What is the kinetic energy of a 7.26 kg bowling ball that is rolling at a speed of 2 m/s?
telo118 [61]

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object when that object is moving in space. The higher the mass of an object or higher the speed of an object the higher the kinetic energy will be.

So to calculate the Kinetic Energy we can use the following formula

K.E=(1/2)*m*v^2

Inserting the values in formula gives:

K.E=1/2*7.26*2^2

14.52J

This is the final answer which gives the kinetic energy of the ball.

A car of mass 1600 kg can just be lifted what is the least force that the electronicmagnet must use to lift the car ?
Mkey [24]

The car's mass is 1600 kg.

Its weight is (mass) x (gravity).  

On Earth, that's (1600 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  15,680 Newtons.

At the moment, that's the only force acting on the car, directed downward and provided by gravity.

If you want to lift the car, then the net force has to be directed upward, and must either exactly cancel or exceed the force of gravity.

So the minimum force required to lift the car is <em>15,680 Newtons</em>, directed vertically upward.
