If the occupants of the vehicle are not wearing a seat belt, they will continues moving forward at the same speed when brake is applied.

<h3>Newton's first law of motion</h3>

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest or uniform motion in a straight line will continue in that form unless it is acted upon by an external force.

The law is also called the law of inertia.

Thus,  if the occupants of the vehicle are not wearing a seat belt, they will continues moving forward at the same speed when brake is applied.

You're driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 44 m in front of you. Your reaction tim
never [62]

Answer:

14.0 m

25.1 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Distance traveled in the reaction time

Distance = Speed × Time

\text{Distance}=20\times 0.5=10\ m

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-20^2}{2\times -10}\\\Rightarrow s=20\ m

Distance in which the car will stop is 10+20 = 30.0 m

So, the car will not hit the deer

Distance between the car and deer is 44-30 = 14.0 m

\text{Distance}=u\times 0.5=0.5u\ m

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u^2=v^2-2as\\\Rightarrow u^2=0^2-2\times -10\times (44-0.5u)\\\Rightarrow u^2=20(44-0.5u)\\\Rightarrow u^2=880-10u\\\Rightarrow u^2+10u-880=0

u=\frac{-10+\sqrt{10^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-880\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}, u=\frac{-10-\sqrt{10^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-880\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\Rightarrow u=25.08, -35.08\ m/s

Maximum speed of the car by which it will not hit the deer is 25.1 m/s

Light with wavelength 575 nm goes through a single slit of width 0.036 mm and displays a diffraction pattern on a screen 4.2 m a
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

momentum = 1.147 × 10^{-34} kg-m/s

Explanation:

given data

wavelength = 575 nm = 575 × 10^{-9} m

slit width S = 0.036 mm = 0.036 × 10^{-3} m

diffraction pattern D = 4.2 m

to find out

width of central bright fringe, angle of 3rd dark fringe and momentum of photon

solution

we will apply here formula for central bright fringe width formula that is

width = \frac{2*wavelength*D}{S}   ...............1

put here all these value

width = \frac{2*575*10^{-9}*4.2}{0.036*10^{-3}}

width = 0.134 m

so width of central bright fringe is 0.134 m

and

for angle we will formula

slit width × sin∅ = n × wavelength    ............2

here n is no of dark fringe

put here value and find angle

0.036 × 10^{-3} × sin∅ = 3 × 575 × 10^{-9}

solve and we get

∅ = 2.75°

so angle to the 3rd dark fringe is 2.75°

and

momentum formula is

momentum = \frac{planck constant}{wavelength}

here we know planck constant for photon is 6.6 × 10^{-34}

so

momentum = \frac{6.6*10^{-34}}{575*10^{-9}}

momentum = 1.147 × 10^{-34} kg-m/s

16. The spreading of sound waves around openings in barriers is called
AleksandrR [38]
C. diffraction
Diffraction by description is occurrence where the sound wave is interrupted or interacts with certain obstructions or barriers. According to Huygens-Fresnel principle, it is where the waves are interfered by said circumstances during its travel in the confined specific space. Furthermore, the amount of size the wavelength is directly proportional to its interacted slit or barrier thus, these behaviors and amount are positively correlated. Moreover, it occurs in a variety of waves –may it be sound waves, water waves or electromagnetic waves.
