3. Automobile companies often test the safety of cars by putting them through crash tests to observe the integrity of the passen

ger compartment. If 1100kg car is sent toward a cement wall with a speed of15 m/s, an impact force of 185,000 N stops the car, how long does it take before the car is brought to a stop?​

Answer:

Time taken for car to stop = 0.89 seconds (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of car = 1100 kg

Speed of car = 15 m/s

Impact force = 185,000 N

Find:

Time taken for car to stop

Computation:

Change in momentum of car = M(v) - M(u)

Change in momentum of car = 1100(0) - 1100(15)

Change in momentum of car = -16,500

Time taken for car to stop = I Change in momentum of car I / Impact force

Time taken for car to stop = I-16,500I / 185,000

Time taken for car to stop = 0.89 seconds (Approx.)

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 m/s^2 where as radial the component of acceleration is 8.77 m/s^2

Explanation:

As per the given data

u=π/4 rad

ω=u'=2 rad/s

α=u''=4 rad/s

r=e^u

So the transverse component of acceleration are given as

a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\

Here

r=e^u\\r=e^{\pi/4}\\r=2.1932 m

r'=e^u.u'\\r'=2.1932 \times 2\\r'=4.3864 m

So

a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\a_{\theta}=(2.1932\times 4+2\times 4.3864 \times 2)\\a_{\theta}=26.32 m/s\\

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 m/s^2

The radial component is given as

a_r=r''-r\theta'^2

Here

r''=e^u.u'^2+e^u u''\\r''=2.1932 \times (2)^2+2.1932\times 4\\r''=17.5456 m

So

a_r=r''-ru'^2\\a_r=17.5456-2.1932\times (2)^2\\a_r=8.7728 m/s^2

The radial component of acceleration is 8.77 m/s^2

6000 kg train moving 5 m/sec to east collides with 5000 kg train moving 3 m/sec to west. What is their velocity
Svetlanka [38]

The final velocity is 1.37 m/s east

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two trains must be conserved before and after the collision.

So we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v

where:

m_1 = 6000 kg is the mass of the first train

u_1 = 5 m/s is the initial velocity of the first train (we take east as positive direction)

m_2 = 5000 kg is the mass of the second train

u_2 = -3 m/s is the initial velocity of the second train

v is the final combined velocity of the two trains

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find:

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(6000)(5)+(5000)(-3)}{6000+5000}=1.37 m/s

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is east.

A car is traveling at 39.7 mi/h on a horizontal highway. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the coefficient of fricti
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The minimum distance in which the car will stop is

x=167.38m

Explanation:

39.7\frac{mi}{h}*\frac{1km}{0.621371mi}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=17.747\frac{m}{s}

∑F=m*a

∑F=u*m*g

The force of friction is the same value but in different direction of the force moving the car so it can stop so

F=m*a\\a=\frac{F}{m}\\a=\frac{u*m*g}{m}\\a=u*g\\a=0.096*-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

a=-0.9408 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*(x_{f}-x_{o})\\v_{f}=0 \\x_{o}=0\\0=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x_{f}\\x_{f}=\frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} \\x_{f}=\frac{(-17.747\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2*(-0.9408)} \\x_{f}=167.38m
