Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)

Answer:
Compared to windshield the airbag exerts much lesser force
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as change in momentum of the object when it is acted upon by a force during interval of time
<em>Impulse = Impulsive force *time</em>
I = F*Δt
If the object should be bought to rest from certain velocity there should be change in momentum. If the duration in which the momentum is increased then there would be less force applied and hence less damage.
Airbags are used to reduce the force experience by the people when they are met with accident by extending the time required to stop the momentum.
During the collision, the passenger is carried towards the<em> windshield</em> and if they are stopped by collision with wind shield the force will be larger and more damage.But if they are hit with airbag then the force will be less due to increased time.
The change is momentum will be the same with or without momentum but its the time that decides the impact of force.By making it longer the force become less.
<em>Thus compared to the windshield the airbag exerts much lesser force.</em>

Answer:
D...............................
Answer:
20 N/m
Explanation:
From the question,
The ball-point pen obays hook's law.
From hook's law,
F = ke............................ Equation 1
Where F = Force, k = spring constant, e = compression.
Make k the subject of the equation
k = F/e........................ Equation 2
Given: F = 0.1 N, e = 0.005 m.
Substitute these values into equation 2
k = 0.1/0.005
k = 20 N/m.
Hence the spring constant of the tiny spring is 20 N/m
Answer:
Velocity, v = 0.239 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The distance between two consecutive nodes of a standing wave is 20.9 cm = 0.209 m
The hand generating the pulses moves up and down through a complete cycle 2.57 times every 4.47 s.
For a standing wave, the distance between two consecutive nodes is equal to half of the wavelength.

Frequency is number of cycles per unit time.

Now we can find the velocity of the wave.
Velocity = frequency × wavelength
v = 0.574 × 0.418
v = 0.239 m/s
So, the velocity of the wave is 0.239 m/s.
