Answer:
10.23m/s^2
Explanation:
GIven data
mass of elevator = 2125 kg
Force= 21,750 N
Required
The maximum acceleration upward
F= ma
a= F/m
a=21,750/2125
a= 10.23m/s^2
Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Explanation:
1) When is a car is moving at a certain speed, it has a certain amount of momentum (p=mv). A collision against a barrier would cause its momentum to decrease to 0. A change in momentum is Impulse
2) The formula for Impulse: J = f * Δt
J is Impulse
f is the force applied during the time Δt
A tough barrier would produce a smaller Δt, which means more force is applied on the car. (J is always constant)
A softer barrier would apply less force on the car, which means Δt is large.
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
Generally the equation for momentum is mathematically given by
Therefore
T-Joe momentum
