To calculate MA = force needed/force used
Example
MA = 60/30 = 2
The mechanical advantage is 2
Answer: The answer is option A.
Explanation: Particles of matter are packed more loosely in the ground than in the air. This is true because it doesn't have thig like buildings and people stopping the sound waves.
First, we will get the distance traveled before the driver applied the brakes.
distance = velocity * time
distance = 25*0.34 = 8.5 m
Now, we will calculated the distance that the car traveled after the driver applied the brakes. To do this, we will use the equation of motion:
<span>vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d where:
</span>vf = zero, vi = 25 m/s and a = -7 m/s^2
Note: The negative sign is only to show deceleration
d = <span> 1/2*(625) /(7) = 44.6428 m
The total stopping distance =</span> 8.5 + 44.6428 = 53.1428 m
Answer:
speed and time are Vf = 4.43 m/s and t = 0.45 s
Explanation:
This is a problem of free fall, we have the equations of kinematics
Vf² = Vo² + 2g x
As the object is released the initial velocity is zero, let's look at the final velocity with the equation
Vf = √( 2 g X)
Vf = √(2 9.8 1)
Vf = 4.43 m/s
This is the speed with which it reaches the ground
Having the final speed we can find the time
Vf = Vo + g t
t = Vf / g
t = 4.43 / 9.8
t = 0.45 s
This is the time of fall of the body to touch the ground
