When the driver of a car travelling at 36km/h suddenly sees a pedestrian in front of a car, he applies the brakes. The reaction

time of the driver is 0.2s. If the maximum deceleration that the brakes can produce is 20ms, find the maximum stopping distance for the car.​

A 75.0 kg stunt man jumps from a balcony and falls 24.0
Anika [276]

Answer:

The force that acts on the man equals 15354.75 newtons.

Explanation:

After falling through a distance of 24.0 meters the speed of the stunt man upon hitting the mattress can be obtained using third equation of kinematics as

v^{2}=u^{2}+2gh\\\\\therefore v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 24}\\\\v=21.7m/s ( u=0 since the man falls from rest)

Now since the man is decelerated through a distance of 1.15 meters thus the acceleration produced can be obtained from third equation of kinematics as

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as\\\\0=u^{2}=2as\\\\a=\frac{-u^{2}}{2s}\\\\a=-\frac{(21.7^{2}}{2\times 1.15}=-204.73m/s^{2}

Now by newton's second law the force that produced deceleration of the calculated magnitude is obtained as

F=mass\times acceleration\\\\F=75.0\times -204.73=-15354.75Newtons

The negative sign indicates that the direction of force is opposite of motion.

A 6.5 l sample of nitrogen at 25◦c and 1.5 atm is allowed to expand to 13.0 l. the temperature remains constant. what is the fin
ollegr [7]
Since the temperature of the gas remains constant in the process, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas transformation at constant temperature, the product between the gas pressure and its volume is constant:
pV=k
which can also be rewritten as
p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2 (1)
where the labels 1 and 2 mark the initial and final conditions of the gas.

In our problem, p_1 = 1.5 atm, V_1 =6.5 L and V_2 =13.0 L, so the final pressure of the gas can be found by re-arranging eq.(1):
p_2 = p_1  \frac{V_1}{V_2}= (1.5 atm) \frac{6.5 L}{13.0 L}=0.75 atm

Therefore the correct answer is
<span>1. 0.75 atm</span>

A tall cylinder contains 30 cm of water. Oil is carefully poured into the cylinder, where it floats on top of the water, until t
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The gauge pressure is  P_g  =  2058 \ P_a

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The height of the water contained is  h_w  =  30 \ cm  =  0.3 \ m

        The height of liquid in the cylinder is  h_t  =  40 \ cm  = 0.4 \ m

       

At the bottom of the cylinder the gauge pressure is  mathematically represented as

        P_g  =  P_w + P_o

Where  P_w is the pressure of water which is mathematically represented as

      P_w  =  \rho_w  *  g * h_w

Now  \rho_w is the density of water with a constant values of  \rho_w  = 1000 \ kg /m^3

   substituting values

      P_w  = 1000 *  9.8 *  0.3

     P_w  =  2940 \  Pa

While P_o is the pressure of oil which is mathematically represented as

          P_o  =  \rho_o *  g *  (h_t -h_w )

Where \rho _o is the density of oil with a constant value

         \rho _o  = 900 \ kg / m^3

substituting values

       P_o  =  900 *  9.8 * (0.4 - 0.3)

       P_o  =  882 \ Pa

Therefore

      P_g  =  2940 - 882

      P_g  =  2058 \ P_a
