The stopping distance d of a car after the brakes are applied varies directly as the square of the speed r. If a car travelling

70 mph can stop in 270 ft, how many feet will it take the same car to stop whenit is travelling 60 mph?

270/70^2 = x/80^2

Cross multiply

270 (6400) = 4900x

x = 270(6400)/4900

352 and 32/49 feet

Hope this helps

Can i get help for the parts for the two questions? MATHPHYSSSS

Anestetic [448]

Explanation:

003 (part 1 of 2)

Pressure is force divided by area.

P = F / A

P = (117 kg × 9.8 m/s²) / (2 × (0.05 m)²)

P = 229,320 Pa

003 (part 2 of 2)

There are approximately 6895 Pa in 1 psi.

P = 229,320 Pa × (1 psi / 6895 Pa)

P = 33.3 psi

004 (part 1 of 2)

Since the collisions are elastic, the angle of reflection is the same as the angle of incidence (it bounces off at the same angle).

Impulse = change in momentum

F Δt = m Δv

F (36 s) = (300 × 0.003 kg) (5.2 sin 57° m/s − (-5.2 sin 57° m/s))

F = 0.218 N

004 (part 2 of 2)

Pressure is force over area.

P = F / A

P = 0.218 N / 0.712 m²

P = 0.306 N/m²

What kind of error would result if you read the liquid volume where the liquid touches the wall of the cylinder rather than at t

You would get a wrong calculaton which if you are doing an experiment it can mess with the results

In example 18. 4 of the text, the deflection angle of the laser beam as it exits the prism is 22. 6º. If the prism had been made

Marrrta [24]

The deflection angle is 37.29º if the prism was made of polystyrene plastic.

What is a laser beam?

Laser beam is a light beam propagating dominantly in one direction.

It is a beam of radiation produced from a laser.

Here given that,

refraction index of glass, n1= 1.52

refraction index of polystyrene plastic, n2 = 1.59

deflection angle, B = 22.6º

For the second surface,

B = 45º - 22.6º

B = 22.40º

Now from the formula of Snell's law:

n1 sinФ = n2 sin B

sin B / sinФ = n1 / n2

sinФ = (sin 22.40º) * ( 1/ 1.59)

Ф = 37.29º

Hence,

The deflection angle is 37.29º if the prism was made of polystyrene plastic.
