We will put the number of trips in the first column, the miles driven in the second column and gallons of fuel used in the third column.
8 7,680 1,010
7 9,940 1,330
12 14,640 1,790
12 13,920 2,050
Answer:
a) v_average = 11 m / s, b) t = 0.0627 s
, c) F = 7.37 10⁵ N
, d) F / W = 35.8
Explanation:
a) truck speed can be found with kinematics
v² = v₀² - 2 a x
The fine speed zeroes them
a = v₀² / 2x
a = 22²/2 0.69
a = 350.72 m / s²
The average speed is
v_average = (v + v₀) / 2
v_average = (22 + 0) / 2
v_average = 11 m / s
b) The average time
v = v₀ - a t
t = v₀ / a
t = 22 / 350.72
t = 0.0627 s
c) The force can be found with Newton's second law
F = m a
F = 2100 350.72
F = 7.37 10⁵ N
.d) the ratio of this force to weight
F / W = 7.37 10⁵ / (2100 9.8)
F / W = 35.8
.e) Several approaches will be made:
- the resistance of air and tires is neglected
- It is despised that the force is not constant in time
- Depreciation of materials deformation during the crash
Answer:
d = 10.2 m
Explanation:
When the car travels up the inclined plane, its kinetic energy will be used to do the work in climbing up. So according to the law of conservation of energy, we can write that:
where,
m = mass of car
v = speed of car at the start of plane = (36 km/h)(1000 m/1 km)(1 h/3600 s)
v = 10 m/s
F = force on the car in direction of inclination = W Sin θ
W = weight of car = mg
θ = Angle of inclinition = 30°
d = distance covered up the ramp = ?
Therefore,
<u>d = 10.2 m</u>
