Question

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from 0 to 5.50 m/s in 0.890 s. (a) What is the magnitude of the linear impulse experienced by a 60.0-kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates? (b) What is the magnitude of the average total force experienced by a 60.0-kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates?

Step 1

Given: Mass of passenger, m = 60.0 kg Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s Final velocity, v = 5.50 m/s Time taken, t = 0.890 s Using the formula for impulse: Impulse = Change in momentum Change in momentum = m * (v - u) Change in momentum = 60.0 kg * (5.50 m/s - 0 Show more…
