Question

Suppose that when a car goes over a bump, the impact hat must be absorbed by the suspension is directly proportional to the square of the car's speed. Of a car going 12 mph receives 4000 units of impact, ow much impact will a car received at 30 mph

Answer 1

10000 units of impact

Explanation:

From the above question:

12 mph = 4000 units of impact

30 mph = x units of impact

Cross Multiply

12 mph × x units = 30 mph × 4000 units

x units = 30 mph × 4000 units/12 mph

x units = 10000 units of impact.

Therefore, 30 mph receives 10000 units of impact
