A scientist might benefit from using a computer simulation for his studies by modeling the force of winds during tornadoes.

<h3>What is computer modeling?</h3>

Computer modeling is a strategy based on the used of computers to make accurate predictions.

Computer modeling may have into account numerous variables that influence the movement of winds during tornadoes.

In conclusion, a scientist might benefit from using a computer simulation for his studies by modeling the force of winds during tornadoes.

A 78−kg skier is sliding down a ski slope at a constant velocity. The slope makes an angle of 21° above the horizontal direction
Feliz [49]

Answer:

274N 0.41

Explanation:

As he is sliding down in a constant speed then the force that accelerates him (weight) and the force that slows his down (friction) are equal.

then

<em>friction=mass x gravity x sin(21)</em>

Fr=78kg x 9.8m/s2 x sin(21)=274N

<em>friction= coefficient of kinetic friction x normal force of from the slope</em>

Fr= u x 78kg x 9.8m/s2 x cos(21)=274N

Fr= u x 78kg x 9.8m/s2 x cos(21)=274Nu=274/677=0.41

If a penny is dropped from rest from a tower takes 2 seconds to hit the ground, how far did it travel?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

t = 2s

u = 0m/s (released from rest)

a = +g = 9.8m/s²

s = H = ?

using,

s = ut + 1/2at²

H = 0(2) + 1/2(9.8)(2²)

H = 0 + 9.8(2)

s = H = 19.6m

EleoNora [17]

3) Earth is about 150 million km from the Sun, and the apparent brightness of the Sun in our sky is about 1,300 watts per square meter. Determine the apparent brightness we would measure for the Sun if we were located five times Earth's distance from the Sun. Answer: The Sun would appear 1/25 times as bright.

They think everything is involved with tech , some business like going old school , it’s artificiaciality is off meaning consequences aren’t actually accurate like in real life , lack of flexibility can’t change anything because it’s programmed so you can’t actually act question or change scenarios ,it costs too much as well , can be health risk can cause stress and anxiety,

Which requires the most amount of work by breaks of a car?
tigry1 [53]

The answer is not 'A'.
Using the numbers given in the question, it's 'B'.

It WOULD be 'A' if the number in B were 71 or less.
________________________________

<span>This is not as simple as it looks.

What quantity are we going to compare between the two cases ?
Yes, I know ... the "amount of work".  But how to find that from the
numbers given in the question ?
Is it the same as the change in speed ?
Well ?  Is it ?
NO.  IT's NOT.

In order to reduce the car's speed, the brakes have to absorb
the KINETIC ENERGY, and THAT changes in proportion to
the SQUARE of the speed.  ( KE = 1/2 m V² )

Case 'A' :
The car initially has (1/2 m) (100²)
                             = (1/2m) x            10,000 units of KE.

It slows down to       (1/2 m) x (70²)
                             = (1/2m) x              4,900 units of KE.

The brakes have absorbed  (10,000 - 4,900) = 5,100 units of KE.

Case 'B' :
The car initially has (1/2 m) (79²)
                             = (1/2m) x             6,241 units of KE.

It slows down to a stop . . . NO kinetic energy.

The brakes have absorbed all  6,241 units of KE.

Just as we suspected when we first read the problem,
the brakes do more work in Case-B, bringing the car
to a stop from 79, than they do when slowing the car
from 100  to  70 .

But when we first read the problem and formed that
snap impression, we did it for the wrong reason.
Here, I'll demonstrate:

Change Case-B.  Make it "from 71 km/h to a stop".

Here's the new change in kinetic energy for Case-B:

The car initially has (1/2 m) (71²)
                             = (1/2m) x             5,041 units of KE.
It slows down to a stop . . . NO kinetic energy.
The brakes have absorbed all  5,041  units of KE.

-- To slow from 100 to 70, the brakes absorbed 5,100 units of KE.

-- Then, to slow the whole rest of the way from 71 to a stop,
the brakes absorbed only 5,041 units of KE.

-- The brakes did more work to slow the car the first 30 km/hr
than to slow it to a complete stop from 71 km/hr or less.

That's why you can't just say that the bigger change in speed
requires the greater amount of work.
______________________________________

It works exactly the same in the opposite direction, too.

It takes less energy from the engine to accelerate the car
from rest to 70 km/hr than it takes to accelerate it the
next 30, to 100 km/hr !</span>

(The exact break-even speed for this problem is  50√2 km/h,
or  70.711... km/hr rounded. )
