Spherometers have three legs that form an equilateral triangle. Recall from geometry that three points determine a plane, so the three legs will always touch the glass.

A student's life was saved in an automobile accident because an airbag expanded in front of his head. If the car had not been eq

dexar [7]

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

Impulse = Impulsive force *time

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 windshield 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.

Thus compared to the windshield the airbag exerts much lesser force.

An object thrown vertically upward from the surface of a celestial body at a velocity of 36 m/s reaches a height of sequalsminu

Anarel [89]

Answer:

v = -1.8t+36

20 seconds

360 m

40 seconds

36 m/s

The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.

Explanation:

$s=-0.9t^2+36t$

Differentiating with respect to time we get

$\frac{ds}{dt}=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow v=-1.8t+36$

a) Velocity of the object after t seconds is v = -1.8t+36

At the highest point v will be 0

$0=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-36}{-1.8}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

b) The object will reach the highest point after 20 seconds

$s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow s=-0.9\times 20^2+36\times 20\\\Rightarrow s=360\ m$

c) Highest point the object will reach is 360 m

$s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow 360=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow -0.9t^2+36t-360=0\\\Rightarrow -9t^2+360t-3600=0$

$\frac{-360\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\left(-9\right)}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

d) Time taken to strike the ground would be 20+20 = 40 seconds

$[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.9\times 2\times 20\\\Rightarrow v=36\ m/s$

Acceleration will be taken as positive because the object is going down. Hence, the sign changes. 2 is multiplied because the expression is given in the form of $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

e) The velocity with which the object strikes the ground will be 36 m/s

f) The speed will increase when the object has gone up and for 20 seconds and falls down for 20 seconds. The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.
