It is said that a mouse (a very small mammal) can fall 10 m and walk away, unharmed. If a moose (a very large mammal)fell 10 m it would probably not survive. Why is this? Select the best answer. (We don't say this often, but don't answer thisone experimentally.)a) the air resistance acting on the mouse is greaterb) the mouse decelerates over a shorter distanceC) the mouse's terminal speed is greaterd) the mouse hits the ground at a lower speede) the mouse is stronger than the moose

Mouse has lower weight than a moose. When mouse hits the ground it has lower speed because it has…

A skater with an initial speed of 8.10 m/s stops propelling himself and begins to coast across the ice, eventually coming to rest. Air resistance is negligible.(a) The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ice and the skate blades is 0.135. Find the deceleration caused by kinetic friction.(b) How far will the skater travel before coming to rest? a = + - units x = units
0.350 and 0.480. Vehicles of all types travel on the road, from small VW bugs weighing 1110 lb to large trucks weighing 7650 lb. Considering that some drivers will brake properly when slowing down and others will skid to stop, calculate the minimum and maximum braking distance needed to ensure that all vehicles traveling at the posted speed limit can stop before reaching the intersection. minimum braking distance: ft maximum braking distance: ft Given that the goal is to allow all vehicles to come safely to a stop before reaching the intersection, calculate the maximum desired speed limit. maximum speed limit: mph Which factors affect the soundness of your decision? Precipitation from the fog can lower the coefficients of friction. Drivers cannot be expected to obey the posted speed limit. Reaction time of the drivers is not taken into account. Newton's second law does not apply to this situation.
You are trying to escape a hoard of zombies and must make an elevator to get down a cliff as fast as possible. As you cannot hit the ground faster than 10m/s and the cliff is 25m deep, this limits your acceleration to 2 m/s2 (you will want to accelerate at this rate to get down the cliff as fast as you can). Assuming your and the bucket’s mass together is 100kg (m2) , what is the minimum mass (m1) that the sled must be to prevent your death (assume the ground is frictionless).

We often think of friction and air resistance as forces that we want to minimize because they can hinder the motion of an object. But they are not always undesirable, and in fact, can be an essential element in a machine or process. Identify one or two applications that depend on friction and air resistance. Explain how friction or air resistance works in those situations and what would happen if there were no friction or air resistance. Your initial post should be 75-150 words in length and is due on Sunday.
A car with a mass of 1.3x103 kg is skidding to a stop along a horizontal surface. The car decelerates from 33 m/s to rest in 3.9 seconds. Assuming negligible air resistance, determine the coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road surface. μ =_________

Time left 0:20:32 An amusement park in Dubai has a ramp which is frictionless. A child drops a smooth object and it slides down the ramp and comes down through a height 4 m. What distance is necessary to stop the object on the flat track if the coefficient of friction is 0.4? h. Answer:
At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 88 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.35. a.)Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
I've been moonwalking for hours, and I'm getting tired. Explain why, as I come to a stop, my velocity is increasing while my speed is decreasing.
While watching the Minty Mania Grand Prix (the first race of the Marbula One 2020 season), you're curious about a few things. You notice that the marbles move downhill during the entire race (the slope of the track changes at different points), and then are lifted back to the starting line by a conveyor belt at the end of each lap. The announcer mentions that the conveyor belt lifts the marbles a height of 40.0 cm, at a constant speed of 0.095m/s, and that the length of the conveyor belt is 52 cm. He also mentions that the length of the track (from start line to finish line) is 10.26 m. You can assume that the marble is already moving at this speed when it starts moving up the conveyor belt. You also know that the mass of each racer (marble) is 6.6 g. To simplify the analysis, you decide to model the force of friction acting on the marble (due to interactions with the track, walls, and other marbles) as a constant 0.002 N force. To satisfy your curiosity, determine the power of the…
