This implies that stopping distance and impact force grow as a function of speed. The best ways to improve manoeuvrability and lessen crash severity are to drive at an appropriate pace and to slow down as soon as you spot dangers in front of you.

Keep in mind that stopping distance increases with speed; at 50 mph, it is four times longer than at 25 mph, and at 75 mph, the force of impact is nine times greater.

<h3>What is the impact of speed on kinetic energy ?</h3>

When your car expends or absorbs energy to speed up or slow down, you may feel a pull or a jolt, called impulse. Impulse increases as the energy or force increases, and increases as the duration of the force decreases. You'll feel a harder jolt if you speed up or slow down suddenly.

  • Consider: coming to a stop from 60 mph in ten seconds doesn't hurt you or your vehicle because the force of this event is spread out over a long time. But if you hit a wall and come to a stop in just half a second, you'll feel twenty times the impulse, causing severe damage.

Name some devices we use to make measurements
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ruler. A steel ruler aids the measurement and layout of straight lines. The ruler, also called "straightedge" or "straight-edged ruler," is a long, thin strip of wood, metal or plastic marked with increments of measurement.

Measuring Tape. The modern measuring tape's roughly palm-sized casing contains a coiled strip of metal marked with increments of measurement. The metal strip, called "tape," attaches to a spring which automatically retracts the tape into the casing following use.

Walking Tape Measure. The walking tape measure, also called "surveyor's measure," records the distance traveled by a wheel. An operator pushes the measure's wheel, similar to a bicycle wheel, by a handle as an attached ticker box displays feet or meters in the same format as a car's odometer.

Laser Measure. The laser measure offers point and shoot distance measurement. In its most basic form, a laser measure is a hand-held electronic device with a digital display.

Which letters represent constructive interference in this diffraction pattern? Check all that apply.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: A, C and D

Explanation:

Interference occurs when two waves superimpose to form a wave having a smaller or larger amplitude.

Constructive interference is said to occur when two waves superimpose to produce a wave having larger amplitude. It occurs for the waves having phase difference of multiple of 2π. On the other hand, destructive interference occurs for the waves having phase difference  π, 3π, ..and so on.

In the given picture, the bright regions represent constructive interference where as the dark ones between them represent destructive interference. Thus, the correct letters representing constructive interference are: A, C and D.

A student wishes to determine the heat capacity of a coffee-cup calorimeter. After she mixes 94.8 g of water at 60.4°C with 94.8
madreJ [45]

Answer:

396.65 JC⁻¹

Explanation:

m_{a} = mass of water added to calorimeter = 94.8 g

T_{ai} = initial temperature of the water added = 60.4 C

c_{w} = specific heat of water = 4.184 Jg⁻¹C⁻¹

m_{c} = mass of water available to calorimeter = 94.8 g

T_{ci} = initial temperature of the water in calorimeter = 22.3 C

T_{f} = final equilibrium temperature = 35 C

Q_{C} = Heat gained by calorimeter

Using conservation of heat

Heat gained by calorimeter = Heat lost by water added - heat gained by water in calorimeter

Q_{C} = m_{a} c_{w} (T_{ai} - T_{f}) -  m_{c} c_{w} (T_{f} - T_{ci})

Q_{C} = (94.8) (4.184) (60.4 - 35) -  (94.8) (4.184) (35 - 22.3)

Q_{C} = 5037.4 J

T = Change in temperature of calorimeter

Change in temperature of calorimeter is given as

T = T_{f} - T_{ci}

T = 35 - 22.3

T = 12.7 C

Heat capacity of calorimeter is given as

c_{cm} = \frac{Q_{C}}{T}

c_{cm} = \frac{5037.4}{12.7}

c_{cm} = 396.65 JC⁻¹

Question 1
Alexus [3.1K]

Question 1's answer is, if we change the length of the string allowed to vibrate, then the frequency (and pitch) of the string vibration will change. This is because the tension of the string determines the pitch.

Question 2's answer is 2. This can be solved by doing simple division. 30/15 = 2.

Question 3's answer is short bars. Each bar on a xylophone produces a different pitch; the shorter the bar, the higher the pitch.

Hope this helps.
