Answer: the effective design stiffness required to limit the bumper maximum deflection during impact to 4 cm is 3906250 N/m

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of vehicle m = 1000 kg

for a low speed test; V = 2.5 m/s

bumper maximum deflection = 4 cm = 0.04 m

First we determine the energy of the vehicle just prior to impact;

W_v = 1/2mv²

we substitute

W_v = 1/2 × 1000 × (2.5)²

W_v = 3125 J

now, the the effective design stiffness k will be:

at the impact point, energy of the vehicle converts to elastic potential energy of the bumper;

hence;

W_v = 1/2kx²

we substitute

3125 = 1/2 × k (0.04)²

3125 = 0.0008k

k = 3125 / 0.0008

k = 3906250 N/m

Therefore, the effective design stiffness required to limit the bumper maximum deflection during impact to 4 cm is 3906250 N/m

Where is the near point of an eye for which a contact lens with a power of +2.55 diopters is prescribed?Where is the far point o
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a). The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power = 2.55 D

Object distance = 25 cm for near point

Object distance = ∞ for far point

Suppose where is the far point of an eye for which a contact lens with a power of -3.00 D  is prescribed for distant vision?

(a) We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of power

f =\dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{100}{2.55}

f=39.21\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{39.21}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{-25}

\dfrac{1}{39.21}-\dfrac{1}{25}=\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=-\dfrac{1421}{98025}

v=-68.98\ cm

The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of power

f =\dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=-\dfrac{100}{3.00}

f=-33.33\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{-33.33}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{\infty}

-\dfrac{1}{33.33}+\dfrac{1}{\infty}=\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=-\dfrac{1}{33.33}

v=-33.33\ cm

The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Hence, (a). The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Carlos is making phosphorous trichloride using the equation below. He adds 15 g of phosphorus.
Degger [83]
Given:

The balanced chemical reaction of the synthesis of phosphorus trichloride:

2P + 3Cl2 ===> 2PCl3

Initial amount of phosphorus = 15 grams

The amount of product produced from 15 grams of phosphorus:

15 grams / 31 g/mol * (2/2) = 66.46 grams PCl3 

The amount of chlorine is 44.31 grams, nearest to 45 grams.
