An advertisement claims that a car can stop on a dime. If the car is 850 kg and is traveling at 45.0 km/h, what is the magnitude of the net force needed to stop in the distance equal to the diameter of a dime (1.8 cm)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Net force on the car will be [tex]3689236.111N[/tex]      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the car m = 850 kg

Initial velocity of the car u = 45 km/hr [tex]=45\times \frac{5}{18}=12.5m/sec[/tex]

As the car finally stops so final velocity of car v = 0 m/sec

Distance travel for stooping of car s = 1.8 cm = 0.018 m[tex]v^2=u^2+2as[/tex]

From third equation of motion [tex]v^2=u^2+2as[/tex]

So [tex]0^2=12.5^2+2\times a\times 0.018[/tex]

[tex]a=-4340.277m/sec^2[/tex]

So magnitude if acceleration will be [tex]a=4340.277m/sec^2[/tex]

So net force on the car [tex]F=ma=850\times 4340.277=3689236.111N[/tex]

So net force on the car will be [tex]3689236.111N[/tex]

Magnitude of the net force needed to stop in the distance equal to the diameter of a dime of 1.8 cm is 3.7 × 10⁶ N

Net force based problem:

What information do we have?

Mass of car = 850 kg

Speed of car = 45 km/h = 12.5 m/s

Using third equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 12.5² + 2(a)(0.018)

Acceleration = - 4340.27m/s²

F(net) = ma

F(net) = (850)(- 4340.27)

F(net) = - 3,689,236.7N

F(net) = 3.7 × 10⁶ N
