The automobile has a weight of 2700 lb and is traveling forward at 4 ft>s when it crashes into the wall. If the impact occurs

alex41 [277]

Answer:

$F_b=153918\, lb.ft.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass, $m=2700 \,lb$

time, $t=0.06\,s$

velocity, $v=4\,ft.s^{-1}$

coefficient of kinetic friction between wheels & pavement, $\mu=0.3$

According to first condition,

$F\times \Delta t=m\times v$

$F\times 0.06= 2700\times 4$

$F=180000\,lb.ft.s^{-2}$

According to second condition,

<u>Magnitude of frictional force (which acts opposite to the direction of motion):</u>

$f=\mu.N$

where N is the normal reaction.

$f=0.3\times 2700\times 32.2$

$f=26082 \,lb.ft.s^{-2}$

Now, the impulsive force on the wall if the brakes were applied during the crash:

$F_b= F-f$

$F_b=180000-26082$

$F_b=153918\, lb.ft.s^{-2}$

9. An object of weight 80kg on earth is taken to a

ryzh [129]

Answer:

266. 4

Explanation:

acceleration due to vravity on earth is 10m/s.

One third of it is (1/3)*10

=3.333m/s.

Weight is mass × acceleration

weight= 80kg÷ 3.333m/s

W= 266.4 Newton.

A 18000 Hz wave has wavelength of 0.03 meters. How fast is this wave<br> traveling?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

540m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency of the wave = 18000Hz

Wavelength of the wave = 0.03m

Unknown:

How fast is the wave traveling = ?

Solution:

How fast the wave is traveling is a measure of the speed of the wave;

Speed of wave = frequency x wavelength

Now insert the given parameters and solve;

Speed of wave = 18000 x 0.03 = 540m/s

Suppose a 350-g kookaburra (a large kingfisher bird) picks up a 75-g snake and raises it 2.5 m from the ground to a branch. (a)

mafiozo [28]

(a) The work done by the bird to raise the snake on the branch is equal to the product between the weight of the snake and the height of the branch above the ground:

$W_1 = mg h$

where $m=75 g=0.075 kg$ is the mass of the snake and $h=2.5 m$ is the height of the branch with respect to the ground. Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

$W_1 = (0.075 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(2.5 m)=1.84 J$

(b) The work the bird did to raise its own centre of mass from the ground to the branch is equal to the product between the bird's weight and the height of the branch:

$W_2 = mgh$

where $m=350 g=0.35 kg$ is the mass of the bird. Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

$W_2 = (0.35 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(2.5 m)=8.58 J$

PLS HELP. PLEASE. What is the role of DNA in determining an organism’s traits?

Darya [45]

Answer:

DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. To carry out these functions, DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins, which are the complex molecules that do most of the work in our bodies
