An initially motionless test car is accelerated uniformly to 105 km/h in 8.43 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in

contact with the faux fawn for 0.635 s, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 60.0 km/h. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car before the collision?
acceleration before collision:
3.45
m/s2
What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the collision?
average acceleration during collision:
19.68
m/s2
What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the entire test, from when the car first begins moving until the collision is over?

105 km/h ≈ 29.2 m/s

60.0 km/h ≈ 16.7 m/s

Before the collision the test car has an acceleration <em>a</em> of

<em>a</em> = (29.2 m/s - 0) / (8.43 s) ≈ 3.46 m/s²

During the collision, the car is slowed to about 16.7 m/s, so that its (average) acceleration is

<em>a</em> = (16.7 m/s - 29.2 m/s) / (0.635 s) ≈ -19.7 m/s²

i.e. with magnitude about 19.7 m/s².

Overall, the car has an average acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (16.7 m/s - 0) / (8.43 s + 0.635 s) ≈ 1.84 m/s²

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Because of the location, humidity and temperatures.

Explanation:

Coca is grown in humid and very humid subtropical forests, called yungas and

they form the lower floor of the upper Jungle, in the Central Andes, mostly in Peru and Bolivia. The  yungas are in contact with the rainforests of the lowlands in Amazonia, where it has been  started to expand coca cultivation recently (Dourojeanni, 1988). The optimum altitude is 1000 a  2000 meters (where cocaine content is higher), with optimal annual average precipitation, is 2000 meters  mm, but it is grown between 700 and 2000 msnm and with an average annual rainfall of 1000 to 4200 mm.

msnm = meters above sea level

If we decrease the amount of force, and kelp all other factors the same, what will happen to the amount of work?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Distance will decrease and work will decrease:

F = m a      Newton's Second Law

a = F / m       decreasing force will decrease acceleration

S = 1/2 a t^2 = 1/2 (F / m) t^2     distance traveled will decrease as force        decreases

W = F * S       work will decrease as both force and distance decrease

A feather, a marble, and a cannonball are dropped from the same height at
Vika [28.1K]

The correct answer is that they would all hit the ground at the same time. If no air resistance is present, the rate of descent depends only on how far the object has fallen, no matter how heavy the object is. This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. This statement follows from the law of conservation of energy and has been demonstrated experimentally by dropping a feather and a lead ball in an airless tube.
