A 1.23 x 10^3 kilogram car is traveling east at 25 meters per second. The brakes are applied and the car is brought to rest in 5

.00 seconds. Calculate the magnitude of the total impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest. State the direction of impulse applied to the car.

Answer:

\text{Magnitude: }30,000\:\text{Ns},\\\text{Direction: opposite direction of car's movement}}

Explanation:

*Edit: The original question states a mass of 1.23\cdot 10^3\:\text{kg}. Since the, the poster has corrected it to 1.20\cdot 10^3\:\text{kg} and therefore the answers have been change to account for the typo.

The impulse-momentum theorem states that the impulse on a object is equal to the change in momentum of the object.

Therefore, we have the following equation:

F\Delta t=\Delta p, where F\Delta t is impulse (another way to find impulse) and \Delta p is change in momentum.

Because the car is being slowed to a rest, its final velocity will be zero, and therefore its final momentum will also be zero. Since momentum is given as p=mv, the car's change in momentum is 1.20\cdot 10^3\cdot 25-0=1230\cdot 25=30,000\:\text{kgm/s}.

As we wrote earlier, this is also equal to the magnitude of impulse on the object. The time it takes to stop the car is actually irrelevant to finding the total impulse. However, if we were to calculated the average applied force on the car, we would need how long it takes to bring it to rest (refer to F\Delta t).

The direction of the impulse must be exactly opposite to the car's direction, since we are slowing it to a stop.

Therefore, the impulse on the car is \boxed{30,750\:\text{Ns, opposite direction of car's movement}}.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

evolutionary theory

Explanation:

The evidence is overwhelming that the Grand Canyon was dug over a span of millions of years by the erosive power of the Colorado River and that river’s tributary streams.

This evidence does not support catastrophic theory but it does support evolutionary theory, because it was gradual process and took place overtime. It did not happen in a catastrophic manner.

See the diagram above. Which of the following is the best prediction of what would happen if you increased the distance in secti
Inessa [10]

By the definition of wavelength, the answer is the letter D, the wavelength would decrease.

We can see in the diagram a wave motion.

A wave has some characteristics:

  • Has an amplitude, the distance from 0 to the crest (highest point in the y-direction, point (3) in the figure) it would see in the figure as (2)
  • Has wavelength, the distance between the crests.
  • Has a trough, the lowest point in the y-direction.

Now, if we increase the distance of the crests, by the definition shown above, we will increase the wavelength.

Therefore, the answer is letter D, the wavelength would increase.

meriva

Answer:

300 Nm ; 300 J

Explanation:

Given that:

Force (F) = 20 N

Distance (d) = 15 m

The kinetic energy (Workdone) = Force * Distance

Kinetic Energy = 20N * 15m

Kinetic Energy = 300Nm

K. E = 1/2

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

528 liter.

Explanation:

Volume of the tank(cuboid) = l*b*h

But volume of the water = l*b*h

Where

l= length of the tank

b = width of the tank

h = the length from the bottom of the tank,

3.55 in to m,

0.09017m

Length of the water in the tank = 0.570 - 0.09017

= 0.47983 m.

Volume = 0.47983*0.710*1.55

= 0.528 m3.

1 m3 = 1000 liter.

0.528 m3 = 0.528*1000

= 528 liter
