Explanation:

Equation for Impact

FΔt = ΔP,

F = force

Δt = Impact of time

ΔP = Change in momentum

Car steering is engineered to fail in order to maximize the time of contact and hence reduce the initial impact and mitigate the damage incurred.

Road guard railing crumple on contact to maximize impact time and hence reduce impact intensity and mitigate damage.

Road safety containers are loaded with liquid or sand as they improve the period of impact.

Answer:

How to find the maximum height of a projectile?

if α = 90°, then the formula simplifies to: hmax = h + V₀² / (2 * g) and the time of flight is the longest. ...

if α = 45°, then the equation may be written as: ...

if α = 0°, then vertical velocity is equal to 0 (Vy = 0), and that's the case of horizontal projectile motion.

The blades in a blender rotate at a rate of 6100 rpm. When the motor is turned off during operation, the blades slow to rest in

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion to find the angular acceleration:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

$\omega_f$ is the final angular velocity in rad/s

$\omega_i$ is the initial angular velocity in rad/s

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

t is the time taken

Given the following

$\omega_f = 6100rpm$

Time = 4.1secs

Convert the angular velocity to rad/s

1rpm = 0.10472rad/s

6100rpm = x

x = 6100 * 0.10472

x = 638.792rad/s

$\omega_f = 638.792rad/s\\$

Get the angular acceleration:

Recall that:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

638.792 = 0 + ∝(4.1)

4.1∝ = 638.792

∝ = 638.792/4.1

∝ = 155.80rad/s

<em>Hence the angular acceleration as the blades slow down is 155.80rad/s</em>
