Boiling water is a common method used to sterilize water that may be contaminated. subjecting microbes to such high temperatures is an example of a(n) microbicidal technique.

A substance that eliminates microorganisms (such as bacteria) is known as microbicide and the techniques that involve destruction of microbes are known as microbicidal techniques.

The pathogen biofilm was effectively destroyed by the combined microbicidal effects of hot water (50, 60, or 70 °C) and 2% citric acid. It was discovered that the combination of hot water and citric acid caused sub-lethally harmed cells.

A fairly easy way to disinfect water is to boil it. The majority of dangerous organisms, notably viruses and bacteria that cause waterborne infections, are killed when water is heated to a high temperature of 100°C. The water must boil for at least 20 minutes in order to be most effective.

Hence, water that may be polluted is frequently sterilized by boiling. Using such high temperatures to kill germs is an example of a microbicidal method.

Suppose you want to design an air bag system that can protect the driver at a speed 100 km/h (60 mph) if the car hits a brick wa
34kurt

When solving question that contains equations and the use mathematical computations, It is always ideal to list the parameters given.

Now, given that:

  • the speed of the car which is the initial velocity (u) = 100 km/h before it hits the wall.
  • after hitting the wall, the final velocity will be (v) = 0 km/h

Assumptions:

  • Suppose we make an assumption that the distance travelled during the collision of the car with the brick wall (S) = 1 m
  • That the car's acceleration is also constant.

∴

For a motion under constant acceleration, we can apply the kinematic equation:

\mathsf{v^2 = u^2 + 2as}

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

From the above equation, making acceleration (a) the subject of the formula:

\mathsf{v^2 - u^2 =2as }

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2 }{2s}}

The initial velocity (u) is given in km/h, and we need to convert it to m/s as it has an effect on the unit of the acceleration.

since 1 km/h = 0.2778 m/s

100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{(0)^2 - (27.78)^2 }{2(1)}}

\mathsf{a = \dfrac{- 771.7284 }{2}}

a = - 385.86 m/s²

Similarly, from the kinematic equation of motion, the formula showing the relation between time, acceleration and velocity is;

v = u + at

where;

v = 0

-u = at

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-u}{a}}

\mathsf{t = \dfrac{-27.78}{-385.86}}

t = 0.07 seconds

An airbag is designed in such a way as to prevent the driver from hitting on the steering wheel or other hard substance that could damage the part of the body. The use of the seat belt is to keep the driver in shape and in a balanced position against the expansion that occurred by the airbag during the collision on the brick wall.

Thus, we can conclude that the airbag must be inflated at 0.07 seconds faster before the collision to effectively protect the driver.

You throw a balloon that floats in the air with a velocity of 2 m / s south . If the wind speed is 5 m / s west , how far south
zvonat [6]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m

Explanation:

velocity of the ball, v_b = 2 m/s south

velocity of the air, v_a = 5 m/s west

To determine the distance the balloon will travel after 2 seconds, first determine the resultant velocity of the balloon.

                                       | 2m/s

                                       |

                                       |

                                      ↓

      5m/s  ←------------------

the two velocities forms a right angled triangle and the resultant will be the hypotenuses side of the triangle.

R² = 5² + 2²

R² = 29

R = √29

R = 5.385 m/s

The distance traveled by the balloon is calculated as;

d = R x t

where;

t is time of the motion = 2 seconds

d = 5.385 x 2

d = 10.77 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m.

A car is traveling at 39.7 mi/h on a horizontal highway. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the coefficient of fricti
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The minimum distance in which the car will stop is

x=167.38m

Explanation:

39.7\frac{mi}{h}*\frac{1km}{0.621371mi}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=17.747\frac{m}{s}

∑F=m*a

∑F=u*m*g

The force of friction is the same value but in different direction of the force moving the car so it can stop so

F=m*a\\a=\frac{F}{m}\\a=\frac{u*m*g}{m}\\a=u*g\\a=0.096*-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

a=-0.9408 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*(x_{f}-x_{o})\\v_{f}=0 \\x_{o}=0\\0=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x_{f}\\x_{f}=\frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} \\x_{f}=\frac{(-17.747\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2*(-0.9408)} \\x_{f}=167.38m

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

v'_2=3V

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Bowling ball Speed v_1=5 m/s

Beach ball Speed v_2=2 m/s

Let The Mass be equal i.e

 M_1=M_2

Therefore

Generally the equation for Velocity of beach ball after collision v'_2 is mathematically given by

Since Velocity is Vector Quantity

Therefore

 v'_2=v_1-v_2

 v'_2=5-2

 v'_2=3V
