Answer:

the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 50 m/s

distance traveled by the car, s = 20 m

final velocity of the after coming to rest, v = 0

mass of the passenger, m = 90 kg

Determine the acceleration of the car as it hit the pile of dirt;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = 50² + (2 x 20)a

0 = 2500 + 40a

40a = -2500

a = -2500/40

a = -62.5 m/s²

The deceleration of the car is 62.5 m/s²

The force exerted on the passenger by the backward action of the car is calculated as follows;

F = ma

F = 90 x 62.5

F = 5625 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.

A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain
Mama L [17]

m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m"  and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.  

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 25 kg, sit in seats opposite one another in a rotating merry-go-round with an arm leng
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

92.25 kgm^2

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2

where m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg are the masses of 2 children r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m are their distance to the center of rotation

\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2
