If an automobile moving at high speed suddenly comes to a stop, you would have a large change in momentum. This relates to Newton's second law in the form F = delta p / delta t, where p is momentum (mv).
You could lessen the effect of the sudden stop on the passengers by changing the average force exerted on them. If you look at Newton's second law again, you can see that given some delta p, you can decrease F by increasing delta t. What this means is that if you increase the length of time over which the change in momentum occurs, you can decrease the average force exerted to obtain that change in momentum. This is the reason why landing on a soft cushion is preferable to landing on a concrete surface. The cushion gives way to any object falling on it while still providing some resistance (you don't stop as abruptly), so while your change in momentum is the same in both cases, you have a larger delta t in the case of the cushion.
Answer:
4
Explanation:
Divide 30 meters by 7.5 and you´re answer is 4. This is how I would think you solve the problem
Oooo that ones hard. ummm... idk i think we should just leave it to the experts ya know.
Answer
6.66 seconds imma seem like an idiot if something like this is werong
Explanation:
dogg is speed
100/15
Answer:
Power = 21[W]
Explanation:
Initial data:
F = 35[N]
d = 18[m]
In order to solve this problem we must remember the definition of work, which tells us that it is equal to the product of a force for a distance.
Therefore:
Work = W = F*d = 35*18 = 630 [J]
And power is defined as the amount of work performed in a time interval.
Power = Work / time
Time = t = 30[s]
Power = 630/30
Power = 21 [W]
