A piece of electronic equipment that is surrounded by packing material is dropped so that it hits the ground with a speed of 4 m

/s. After impact, the equipment experiences an acceleration of a = 2kx, where k is a constant and x is the compression of the packing material. If the packing material experiences a maximum compression of 20 mm, determine the maximum acceleration of the equipment.

Vinvika [58]
Hey there!

A ball rolls 3 times. If she adds the three measurements and divides it by 3, it means that this is the average speed. The average speed is found by adding all measurements and dividing by the amount of numbers.

I hope this helps!

A stone is thrown into a pond. Five waves were made from the same source in 10 seconds.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The Frequency of the wave is 0.2Hertz

The period is 2seconds

Explanation:

We are asked to find the frequency and period

Frequency is the number of oscillations completed in one seconds

If five waves were made from the same source in 10 seconds, hence;

Frequency = number of oscillation/Time

Frequency = 5/10

Frequency = 0.5Hertz

Next is to get the period

Period = 1/Frequency

Period = 1/0.5

Period = 2seconds

On a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. max
sesenic [268]

Work done by a given force is given by

W = F.d

here on sled two forces will do work

1. Applied force by Max

2. Frictional force due to ground

Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement

work done by Max = W_1 = Fdcos\theta

W_1 = 12*5cos15

W_1 = 57.96 J

Now similarly work done by frictional force

W_2 = Fdcos\theta

W_2 = 4*5cos180

W_2= -20 J

Now total work done on sled

W_{net}= W_1 + W2

W_{net} = 57.96 - 20 = 37.96 J

A particle is in uniform circular motion. Assume a standard rtz coordinate system. If you deconstruct the net force acting on th
Kitty [74]

Answer:

a) One

Explanation:

In a uniform circular motion there must be a force acting to keep it in the circular track. This force can either be centripetal or a centrifugal force.

According to the Newton's first law of motion a particle continues to be in state of rest or in uniform motion until acted upon by an external force.

Here the term uniform motion need to be understood which refers to the uniform velocity of the particle in accordance to the vector laws.

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion. Which o
Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.  

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.
