A child is riding in a child-restraint chair, securely fastened to the seat of a car. Assume the car has speed 47 km/h when it h

its a tree and is brought to rest in 0.20 s.The mass of the child is 19 kg.Assuming constant deceleration during the collision, estimate the net horizontal force that the straps of the restraint chair exert on the child to hold her in the chair.

Answer: F = 1235 N

Explanation: Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the effect of mass and net force upon acceleration: F_{net}=m.a

Acceleration is the change of velocity in a period of time: a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

Velocity of the car is in km/h. Transforming it in m/s:

v=\frac{47.10^{3}}{36.10^{2}}

v = 13 m/s

At the moment the car decelerates, acceleration is

a=\frac{13}{0.2}

a = 65 m/s²

Then, force will be

F_{net}=19(65)

F_{net} = 1235 N

The horizontal net force the straps of the restraint chair exerted on the child to hold her is 1235 newtons.

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

The answer is photocoagulation.

The use of a laser beam to seal leaky blood vessels and to prevent the growth of new ones in diabetic retinopathy is called laser <u>photocoagulation.</u>

<u></u>

What is photocoagulation?

A minimally invasive method used to treat numerous retinal illnesses is photocoagulation of the retina, also known as retinal laser photocoagulation. The retina may expand due to aberrant leaky blood vessels developing across it in a number of disorders. Laser photocoagulation uses thermal energy above 65 °C to burn the retinal tissue by creating thermal burns. This can prevent the retina from being damaged by the bleeding blood vessels. In addition to causing fibrosis, laser photocoagulation can also seal retinal tears. Laser photocoagulation is typically unable to recover already lost vision in cases of retinal disease, but it can slow the progression of the condition, lower the chance of further vision loss, and preserve residual vision. The likelihood of problems following the operation is quite minimal.

Forces that act on an object but are not equal in size
mezya [45]
Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction and do not cause a change in an object's movement are called balanced forces.

forces that aren't equal in size and do cause a change in movement (what it seems like you're asking for) are called UNBALANCED FORCES

so answer (in case that wasn't clear, as I'm tired) : unbalanced forces
