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.

A sled starts from rest,
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

25.6 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the sled.  There are two forces acting on the sled:

Normal force pushing perpendicular to the hill

Weight force pulling straight down

Take sum of the forces parallel to the hill:

∑F = ma

mg sin θ = ma

a = g sin θ

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 38.0°)

a = 6.03 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 6.03 m/s²

t = 4.24 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (6.03 m/s²) (4.24 s) + (0 m/s)

v = 25.6 m/s

An astronaut is taking a space walk near the shuttle when her safety tether breaks. what should the astronaut do to get back to
sergeinik [125]
The best way in handling in this situation is that in order for the astronaut to be able to get back to the shuttle is that he or she should take an object from his or her tool belt and to be thrown out away from the shuttle. This will allow her to weight lightly and safely return to the shuttle and would be easier for his or her to do so.
