You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.
First, convert 60 mph to m/s:
60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s
Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.
free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)
H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m
If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.
Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.
Answer:The coefficient of friction between the box and the floor, = 1.456 × 10⁻²

Answer:
Decreases by
times
Explanation:
The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.
The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.
In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. 
In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = 
But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = 
=
times
Answer:
r = 0.5 m
Explanation:
First we find the angular speed of the ball by using its period:
ω = θ/t
For the time period:
ω = angular speed = ?
θ = angular displacement = 2π rad
t = time period = 0.5 s
Therefore,
ω = 2π rad/0.5 s
ω = 12.56 rad/s
Now, for the radius:
v = rω
r = v/ω
where,
v = linear speed = 6.29 m/s
r = radius = ?
r = (6.29 m/s)/(12.56 rad/s)
<u>r = 0.5 m</u>
Answer:
d. perfectly elastic
Explanation:
According to the kinetic theory for collisions of gas molecules:
1.The loss of energy is negligible or we can say that it is zero.
2.Molecules of the gas move in a random manner.
3.The collision between molecules and with the wall of the container is perfectly elastic.That is why loss in the energy is zero.
Therefore the correct answer will be d.
d. perfectly elastic
