A man claims that he can hold onto a 16.0-kg child in a head-on collision as long as he has his seat belt on. Consider this man
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of child m = 16 kg

Speed of each car v = 59.0 mi/h = 26.37536 m/s

Time t = 0.05s

Applying the impulse momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = ∆(mv)

F = ∆(mv)/t

F = m(∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

v = velocity

Since the final speed of the car is zero(at rest) then;

∆v = 0 - v = -26.37536 m/s

Substituting the given values;

F = 16×-26.37536/0.05

F = -8440.1152 N

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Which of the following is an illuminated object? a lightbulb a fire the Sun the Moon
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The lightbulb, the fire, and the Sun all create light from some energy source.

The Moon doesn't create light.  The parts of it that the Sun shines on
are visible, the parts of it that the Sun doesn't shine on are not visible. 

Just like a rock on the ground at night, the Moon must be illuminated
by a flashlight in order to be seen.  The Sun is the flashlight.
