A 1000-kg car moving at 10 m/s brakes to a stop in 5 s. the average braking force is

1 answer:

4 0

To calcculate the braking force of the car moving, we use Newton's second law of motion which relates the acceleration and the force of an object moving. The force of an object moving is directly proportional to its acceleration and the proportionality constant is the mass of the object. It is expressed as:

Force = ma

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving object. We calculate acceleration from the velocity and the time given above.

a = (10 m/s) / 5 s = 2 m/s^2

So,
Force = ma
Force = 1000 kg ( 2 m/s^2 )
Force = 2000 kg m/s^2 or 2000 N

Only the sun and other stars in space generate these kinds of waves:

Reika [66]

Answer:

<h2>Ultraviolet Waves.</h2>

Explanation:

The Sun emits waves called "Solar Waves", which have a wavelengths between 160 and 400 nanometers. According to the electromagnetic spectrum, these waves are defined as Ultraviolet, which have a frequency around the order of $10^{16}$ , which is really intense and high energy.

Therefore, the answer is Ultraviolet Waves.

Which statement best describes a device that has a high energy efficiency? Its ratio of energy absorbed to energy released is hi

Stels [109]

Answer:

It wastes little energy

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine refers to the ratio of work output to the work input as a percentage.
The efficiency of most machines is less than 100% because some work is lost due to friction and heat.
Therefore, a machine with high efficiency has less wastage of energy due to factors such as friction of the moving parts. Conversely, low efficiency means there is more wastage of energy.

I would say B because it is near the ocean which can cause a tsunami but also because of the wind coming from the ocean (it might cause hurricanes and lots of storms) I’m not sure though but that’s what I think makes sense. Good Luck!

A pulley with a mechanical advantage of 5 will require you to pull _____ times the amount of rope.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

It will require a force of 1/5, answer A.

Explanation:

In the attached image we can see an example of an array of pulleys that will lift a 100 kg-f load.

If we analyze pulleys A,B, and C as in the image we can check a force in the cable of 20kg-f.

In the pulley D we have three forces of 20 kg-f each and those forces plus the forces in the pulley B, sum a total of 100 kg-f (60+40). This matches the mechanical advantage (100/5) = 20 kg-f
