We need to considerate only the horizontal component of the motion of the toy car.
The formula for the distance in a decelerated motion is:
s = s₀ + v₀·t - 1/2·a·t²
where:
s₀ = initial position = 0
v₀ = initial velocity = 1.21 m/s
t = time elapsed = 0.342 s
a = deceleration = 0.131 m/s²
Plugging in numbers:
s = 0 + 1.21×0.342 - 0.5×0.141×(0.342)²
= 0.406 m
Hence, the toy car traveled a distance of about 41 cm.
Answer:
stryo: 1
wood: 1
ice: 1
brick: 2
aluminum: 2.7
Explanation:
d= mass/ total volume
(fyi: for aluminum, they did the subtraction wrong to find the total volume. it is actually 5 or 5.00)
The exact definition of technology is: The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.
The way I would put it is that technology isn’t just electronics, smartphones, and flying cars. Technology is information that people reveal and figure out and this is why it advances. You hear all the time the “advances in technology” and it’s a term that has grown rapidly. It helps businesses to progress, it’s taught people, it’s in some ways beneficial to people’s lives. It has many meanings and really that is technology simply put.
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Explanation:
1) When is a car is moving at a certain speed, it has a certain amount of momentum (p=mv). A collision against a barrier would cause its momentum to decrease to 0. A change in momentum is Impulse
2) The formula for Impulse: J = f * Δt
J is Impulse
f is the force applied during the time Δt
A tough barrier would produce a smaller Δt, which means more force is applied on the car. (J is always constant)
A softer barrier would apply less force on the car, which means Δt is large.
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Mechanical energy equals the sum of potential and kinetic energy. During the process, all PE converts into KE, assuming air resistance is neglected. So, the mechanical energy does not change and is equal to the initial potential energy.
