During an auto accident, the vehicle's air bags deploy and slow down the passengers more gently than if they had hit the windshield or steering wheel. according to safety standards, the bags produce a maximum acceleration of 60 g, but lasting for only 36 {\rm ms} (or less).

how far (in meters) does a person travel in coming to a complete stop in 36 {\rm ms} at a constant acceleration of 60g?

0.3814128 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 36 ms

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 60g

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The distance the person traveled is 0.3814128 m

this is poiselle's equation from fluid mechanic in physics. mech eng

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
