Phenomenon: Runaway Truck Ramp A truck was driving on a highway at 30 m/s when its brakes gave out. The driver steered it onto a “runaway truck ramp”, consisting of an upward ramp (rising 12 meters vertically over 120 meters horizontally), and ending with a compressible barrier which you can model as a giant spring with spring constant “k”. The compressible barrier can be compressed by a maximum 0.5 meters before it stops working. Graphic attached Values: Mass of the truck: 20 metric tons (1 metric ton = 1000kg). Mass of the driver: Choose a reasonable value. Truck Ramp Dimensions: 12 meters vertical, 120 meters horizontal Spring constant k= 6.0 x 107 J/m2. Part 1: Big…arrow_forward
- Make this below paragraph more engaging and curious with proper grammar, please.Don't make it too long.. at most 1000 characters."Imagine a world where fire blazed and ice melted, their inner workings a baffling mystery. Then came Rudolf Clausius, a scientific visionary who dared to challenge the notion of a perfectly ordered universe. He introduced the concept of entropy – a measure of the hidden chaos constantly increasing within all systems. His breakthrough was a spark. Building on this foundation, Josiah Gibbs unveiled "free energy" – the untapped potential to do work, like the hidden power within a battery, waiting to be harnessed. Meanwhile, Ludwig Boltzmann, delving into the heart of entropy, exposed the universe's unsettling truth: it favors disorder. He connected this chaos to probability, revealing that the more disorganized a system becomes, the more likely it is to remain that way. "arrow_forwardRead and understand each problem below.
