To ensure that a vehicle crash is inelastic, vehicle safety designers add crumple zones to vehicles. A crumple zone is a part of

a vehicle designed to crumple easily in a crash. Use Newton’s second law to explain why crumple zones reduce the force in a collision. Help me I dont know this

spin [16.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer: With crumple zones at the front and back of most cars, they absorb much of the energy (and force) in a crash by folding in on itself much like an accordion. ... As Newton's second law explains force = Mass x Acceleration this delay reduces the force that drivers and passengers feel in a crash.Sep 30, 2020

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following
torisob [31]

Given:

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following for air at 300 K and engine oil at 380 K. Assume the free stream velocity is 3 m/s.

To Find:

a. The distance from the leading edge at which the transition will occur.

b. Expressions for the momentum and thermal boundary layer thicknesses as a function of x for a laminar boundary layer

c. Which fluid has a higher heat transfer

Calculation:

The transition from the lamina to turbulent begins when the critical Reynolds

number reaches 5\times 10^5

(a).  \;\text{Rex}_{cr}=5 \times 10^5\\\\\frac{\rho\;vx}{\mu}=5 \times 10^5\\\text{density of of air at}\;300K=1.16  \frac{kg}{m\cdot s}\\\text{viscosity of of air at}\;300K=1.846 \times 10^{-5} \frac{kg}{m\cdot s} \\v=3m/s\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{5\times 10^5 \times 1.846 \times 10^{-5} }{1.16 \times 3} =2.652 \;m \;\text{for air}\\(\text{similarly for engine oil at 380 K for given}\; \rho \;\text{and} \;\mu)\\

(b).\; \text{For the lamina boundary layer momentum boundary layer thickness is given by}:\\\frac{\delta}{x} =\frac{5}{\sqrt{R_e}}\;\;\;\;\quad\text{for}\; R_e(c). \frac{\delta}{\delta_t}={P_r}^{\frac{r}{3}}\\\text{For air} \;P_r \;\text{equivalent 1 hence both momentum and heat dissipate with the same rate for oil}\; \\P_r >>1 \text{heat diffuse very slowly}\\\text{So heat transfer rate will be high for air.}\\\text{Convective heat transfer coefficient will be high for engine oil.}

Explain the difference between statically determinate beam and statically in determinate beam with sketch.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer

Statically determinate beams are those beams in which the unknown reaction forces are equal or less than the equilibrium equation.

As shown in figure 1 in which reaction forces are 3 and we have 3 equilibrium equation so beam is determinate.

Statically indeterminate beams are those beams in which unknown reaction force are more than the  equilibrium equation.

As shown in figure 2 in which reaction forces are 6 and we have 3 equilibrium equation so beam is indeterminate.

A circuit contains a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor. When an AC voltage is applied across the circuit, the impedance of
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The impedance of  the circuit depends on the angular frequency of the voltage source.

Explanation:

  • In a electric circuit, the magnitude of  the impedance, is given by the following expression:

       Z = \sqrt{R^{2} + (Xl-Xc)^{2} (1)

        where R = Resistance

                   Xl = Inductive reactance = ω*L

                   Xc = Capacitive Reactance = 1/ωC

        and  ω = angular frequency of the voltage source.

  • So, it can be seen that the impedance depends on the value of the constants R,L and C, and on the angular frequency ω.
