During an automobile crash test, the average force exerted by a solid wall on a 1,700 kg car that hits the wall is measured to b

e 170,000 N over a 0.14 s time interval. What was the initial speed of the car (in m/s) prior to the collision, assuming the car is at rest at the end of the time interval

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

Step One:

Given data:

mass of automobile m= 1700kg

Force F= 170,000 N

time t= 0.14s

v= ??

Required

The velocity of the car

Step two:

From the expression given below, we can find the velocity

Ft= mv

make v subject of the formula

v= Ft/m

v= 170000*0.14/1700

v=23800/1700

v=14 m/s

The weight of an astronaut plus his space suit on the Moon is only 250 N. (a) How much does the suited astronaut weigh on Earth?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

a)1500N

b)153.06kg

Explanation:

F = ma

g(moon) = is the acceleration due to gravity on the moon

g(earth) is the acceleration due to gravity on the earth

g(moon) = 1/6g(earth)

g(earth) =6g(moon)

F(gearth) = mg(earth)

               = m 6g(moon)

               = 6 × 250

               = 1500N

b) F(gearth) = mg(earth)

m = F /g

 = 1500/9.8

 = 153.06kg

A motorist traveling with a constant speed of 15 m/s (about 34 mi/h) passes a school-crossing corner, where the speed limit is 0
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(a) 10 s

(b) 30 m/s

(c) 150 m

Explanation:

The motorist's position at time t is:

x = 15t

The officer's position at time t is:

x = ½ (3) t² = 1.5 t²

(a) When they have the same position, the time is:

15t = 1.5 t²

t = 0 or 10 s

(b) The officer's speed is:

v = 3t

v = 30 m/s

(c) The position is:

x = 15t = 150 m

Which type of electromagnetic waves make up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

we conclude that visible light is that electromagnetic wave that makes up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm.

Hence, option A is correct.

Explanation:

Generally, after the storm, we can witness the presence of a rainbow with our naked eyes. Rainbow, visible to our eyes, consists of all the seven constituent colors of white light. Those seven colors range from violet to red, all having different wavelengths. When water particles present in our atmosphere get exposed to light, all the constituent colors of a white light tend to deviate at a variety of angles. It happens due to their refraction through water particles; thus, a spectrum is obtained.

As we cannot see X-rays, UV rays, and infrared waves through our naked eye, visible light is the kind of electromagnetic wave that makes anyone able to see the objects.  

Please note that all the constitute colors of a beautiful rainbow associate with the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Therefore, we conclude that visible light is that electromagnetic wave that makes up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm.

Hence, option A is correct.

Using planck's constant and a wavelength of 656e-9 what is the energy of the photon
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

3.03e-19 J

Explanation:

Use the formula E = hc/λ

Where:

h (Planck's constant) = 6.626e-34 J*s

c (speed of light, constant) = 3.00e8 m/s

λ (wavelength) = 656e-9 m

E = energy (in Joules)

E = (6.626e-34 * 3.00e8) / 656e-9 = 3.03018293e-19 = 3.03e-19 J
