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

Complete question:
The exit nozzle in a jet engine receives air at 1200 K, 150 kPa with negligible kinetic energy. The exit pressure is 80 kPa, and the process is reversible and adiabatic. Use constant specific heat at 300 K to find the exit velocity.
Answer:
The exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
initial temperature, T₁ = 1200K
initial pressure, P₁ = 150 kPa
final pressure, P₂ = 80 kPa
specific heat at 300 K, Cp = 1004 J/kgK
k = 1.4
Calculate final temperature;

k = 1.4

Work done is given as;

inlet velocity is negligible;

Therefore, the exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
