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.
The answer to this is initial appearance and the second is final appearance.
Answer:
8.85m/s
Explanation:
The potential energy the watermelon held before dropping is Ep=mgh=2*9.8*4=78.4J.
When it strikes the ground, all of its Ep will transfer into Ek, so 1/2*m*v^2=78.4.
We already knew that m=2, so insert that in, we will get the V^2=78.4 m/s, V=8.85 m/s
Explanation:
that the people closer too the head of the table will feel more vibrations than the people at the end of the table. since the vibrations will slow down as they travel farther down the table
