Three cars are tested in a 16 m/s frontal crash. The results of the crash tests are shown below, with data indicating how much t

he crumple zone and safety cell of each car deformed. In each car the dummy was secured by the same seat belt and airbag. Which car did the best job of protecting the dummy?

Response:

  Vehicle C

Rationale:

The deformed crumple zone in Vehicle C is considerably lengthier, resulting in a reduced average deceleration. This lower rate of acceleration exerts less force on the dummy. Vehicle C provided superior protection for the dummy.

A plane flying at 70.0 m/s suddenly stalls. If the acceleration during the stall is 9.8 m/s2 directly downward, the stall lasts
ValentinkaMS [3076]

Answer:

v = 66.4 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the aircraft starts off moving at a speed of

v = 70 m/s

now we have

v_x = 70 cos25

v_x = 63.44 m/s

v_y = 70 sin25

v_y = 29.6 m/s

in the Y direction, we can apply kinematic equations

v_y = v_i + at

v_y = 29.6 - (9.81 \times 5)

v_y = -19.5 m/s

as there is no acceleration along the x-axis, the velocity in this direction remains unchanged

thus yielding

v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

v = \sqrt{63.44^2 + 19.5^2}

v = 66.4 m/s

A Federation starship (8.5 ✕ 106 kg) uses its tractor beam to pull a shuttlecraft (1.0 ✕ 104 kg) aboard from a distance of 14 km
Keith_Richards [2877]
Consider the diagram below.

m₁ = 8.5 x 10⁶ kg, the starship's mass
m₂ = 10⁴ kg, the shuttlecraft's mass
a₁ =  acceleration of the starship
a₂ = the acceleration of the shuttle
F = 4 x 10⁴ N, the force exerted

Let y represent the distance covered by the starship
Let x denote the distance covered by the shuttlecraft
If t indicates the travel time, then
y = 0.5a₁t²                  (1)
x = 0.5a₂t²                  (2)

F = m₁a₁ = m₂a₂         (3)
Additionally,
x + y = 14000 m          (4)

From (2), we derive
a₁ = (4 x 10⁴ N)/(8.5 x 10⁶ kg) = 4.706 x 10⁻³ m/s²
a₂ = (4 x 10⁴ N)/(10⁴ kg) = 4 m/s²

From (1), (2) and (4), we find
0.5*(t s)²*(4 + 4.706 x 10⁻³ m/s²) = 14000 m
2.002353t² = 14000
t² = 6991.774 s²
t = 83.617 s

Thus
x = 0.5*4*6991.774 = 13984 m = 13.984 km
y = 0.5*4.706 x 10⁻³*6991.774 = 16.452 m

The starship moves roughly 16.5 meters while towing the shuttlecraft by 13.98 kilometers.

Result: The starship shifts by 16.5 m (to the nearest tenth)

Question 1
Keith_Richards [2877]

Answer:

1)  g = 4π² / m, 3) on the x-axis we have the pendulum lengths, while the y-axis shows the squared periods.

Explanation:

a) learners can model this system as a simple pendulum, where the angular velocity is given by

         w = √ g / l

Here, angular velocity, frequency, and period are interconnected:

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

Substituting yields:

         T = 2π√ l / g

Using this formula, students can calculate the gravitational acceleration by measuring the period for several pendulum lengths and plotting:

        T² = 4π²  l / g

We plot T² against l.

This represents a linear equation where T² is on the y-axis and l is on the x-axis:

        y = (4π² / g) l

The slope is given by:

         m = 4π² / g

Solving for g gives:

         g = 4π² / m

The slope is determined from the line's values rather than experimental data.

2) To perform the experiment, the string is secured to the sphere, then the pendulum length from the pivot to the sphere's center is measured using a tape measure. A slight angle (less than 10 degrees) is released, allowing the first swing to occur. Generally, the time for several oscillations, usually 10 or 20, is tracked to find the period:

    T = t / n

Next, a table is created comparing T² to the length, plotted with length on the x-axis to find the slope, from which the gravitational acceleration is derived.

3) The independent variable, which is the length of the pendulums, is plotted on the x-axis, while the dependent variable, the squared period, is on the y-axis.

4) Referring to the line equation:

            m = 4π² / g

             resulting in:

            g = 4π² / m

5) Once the spring is cut, the sphere continues to be influenced by gravitational acceleration. The harmonic motion ceases, and the sphere moves vertically.

a professional baseball player can pitch a baseball with a velocity of 44.7m/s towards home plate. If a baseball weighs 1.4 N, h
Sav [2813]
To find the mass using a weight of 1.4 N:
1.4/9.8 = 0.1428 kg
The momentum is calculated as 0.1428 multiplied by 44.7, which is 6.38 kgm/s.

A 100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s. (The watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.
Keith_Richards [2877]

Answer:

2.64\times 10^{20} The number of photons emitted each second is

Explanation:

Let 'n' stand for the quantity of photons released by the bulb.

Provided Information:

The bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J per second (E).

Wavelength of emitted light is (λ) = 525 nm = 525\times 10^{-9}\ m

The energy of a photon is calculated by:

Where,

E_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Now, if we have 'n' photons, the total energy is equivalent to the energy of a single photon multiplied by the count of photons. Thus,

h\to Planck's\ constant=6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js\\\\c\to Speed\ of \ light=3\times 10^{8}\ m/s

To express in terms of 'n', we find:

E=nE_0\\\\E=\frac{nhc}{\lambda}

Insert the provided values and solve for 'n'. The resulting calculation yields

n=\frac{E\lambda}{hc}

Consequently,

photons are discharged every second.n=\frac{100\times 525\times 10^{-9}}{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}\\\\n=2.64\times 10^{20}

2.64\times 10^{20}
