Complete question:
Seat belts and air bags save lives by reducing the forces exerted on the driver and passengers in an automobile collision. Cars are designed with a "crumple zone" in the front of the car. In the event of an impact, the passenger compartment decelerates over a distance of about 1 m as the front of the car crumples. An occupant restrained by seat belts and air bags decelerates with the car. In contrast, a passenger not wearing a seat belt or using an air bag decelerates over a distance of 5mm.
(a) A 60 kg person is in a head-on collision. The car's speed at impact is 15 m/s . Estimate the net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys.
Answer:
The net force on the person as the air bad deploys is -6750 N backwards
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the passenger, m = 60 kg
velocity of the car at impact, u = 15 m/s
final velocity of the car after impact, v = 0
distance moved as the front of the car crumples, s = 1 m
First, calculate the acceleration of the car at impact;
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 15² + (2 x 1)a
0 = 225 + 2a
2a = -225
a = -225 / 2
a = -112.5 m/s²
The net force on the person;
F = ma
F = 60 (-112.5)
F = -6750 N backwards
Therefore, the net force on the person as the air bad deploys is -6750 N backwards
Answer:
Option C.
Impulse = mass × change in velocity
Explanation:
Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:
Impulse = force (F) × time (t)
Impulse = Ft
From Newton's second law of motion,
Force = change in momentum /time
Cross multiply
Force × time = change in momentum
Recall:
Impulse = Force × time
Thus,
Impulse = change in momentum
Recall:
Momentum = mass x velocity
Momentum = mv
Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity
Change in momentum = mΔv
Thus,
Impulse = change in momentum
Impulse = mass × change in velocity
Answer:
So percentage error will be 2 %
Explanation:
We have given initial value of acceleration due to gravity 
And final value of acceleration due to gravity 
We have to find the percentage error
We know that percentage error is given by 
So 
%
D: An electromagnet with 20 coils.
That is because the more coils of the wire, the stronger the electromagnet is.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
it loses energy due to friction because if it hits objects the objects slow it down and which causes it to start slowing down
