Energy stored in the bumper = 0.5*6*10^6*0.034^2= 3468
so, 3468 = 0.5*1200*v^2
v= 2.4m/s
the bumper on a 1200kg car is tested by driving it into a brick wall. The...
A car is equipped with a bumper designed to absorb collisions. The bumper is mounted to the car using pieces of flexible tubing. Upon collision with a rigid barrier (e.g. brick wall), the bumper is designed so that a constant horizontal force is developed. If the car is initially traveling at 1.5 m/s when it collides with a rigid brick wall, compute the magnitude of the distance needed to stop the car and cause the deformation of the bumper tubing....
a car with mass 1220 kg crashes into a wall. the car's velocity immediately before the collision was 13.1 m/s and the bumper is compressed like a spring with spring constant 1.14 x 10^7 N/m. What is the maximum deformation of the bumper for this collision?
A 0.16 kg toy car has a spring-loaded bumper. The bumper has a constant of k = 1050 N/m. The toy is pressed against a wall and the spring compresses 5 cm. When the spring is released the car rolls on a flat surface and then up a hill. a) If there were no friction, how high up the hill should the car go?
1. A 1200kg car traveling at 11.0 m/s runs into a 920kg car traveling in the same direction at 5.00 m/s. After the collision the 1200kg car has slowed to 8.00 m/s. a) what is the final velocity of the 920kg car? 2. A bullet mass of m=0.0010kg embeds itself in a wooden block with mass M=0.999kg, which then compresses a spring (k=230 N/m) by a distance x=0.050m before coming to rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block...
An 18000 kg freight car rests against a spring bumper at the end of a railroad track. The spring has constant k=3.2×10^5 N/m. The car is hit by a second car of 9400 kg mass moving at 8.0 m/s , and the two couple together. Find the maximum compression of the spring. Find the speed of the two cars when they rebound together from the spring.
Your driving a car at a constant speed of 10 m/s. The total mass of the car and its contents its 1200kg. You apply the brakes and come to a smooth stop in 4.0 seconds. While coming to a stop, how large was the force applied by the road on the car? A. zero N B. 3000N C. 4500N D. 6000N E. 9000N Please anwser and explain. Thank you!
The acceleration of the center of a car when it slams into a brick wall with an initial speed of 20 m/s is given by the equation 2m)e(-20s-1)t a(t) = Until it comes to rest. How long will t take the car to stop, and what distance ill it travel in this time?
A 12 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring, attached to a wall, with spring constant 220 N/m and compresses it by 80 cm . Part A What was the speed of the cart just before it hit the spring? Neglect any friction.
At what speed does 1600 kg compact car have the same kinetic energy as a 1.80 Times 10^7 kg truck going 24.0 km/hr? A 61kg student is standing at Op a spring in an elevator that is accelerating u? Ward at 3.1 m/s^2. The spring constant is 2600 N/m By how much is the spring compressed? A 13 kg ru? Way grocery cart into a spring with spring constant 250 N/m and compresses it by 61 cm. What was the...
Q2 Car bumpers are designed to limit the extent of damage to the car in the case of low-velocity collisions. Consider a 1420 kg passenger car impacting a concrete barrier while traveling at a speed of 5.0 km/h. Model the car as a particle and consider two bumper models: (1) a simple linear spring with constant k and (2) a linear spring of constant k in parallel with a shock absorbing unit generating a nearly constant force Fs = 2000...
