How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?

Kinetic energy is the energy applied or present in a moving object. According to Newton's second law of motion the magnitude of acceleration of an object is proportional to the magnitude of the net force but inversely proportional to its mass. So the Kinetic Energy of a moving car of small vehicle is greater than the large vehicle if both are applied with the same net force. The greater the Kinetic Energy the longer the stopping distance

Number of conducting plates of a multiplate capacitor is 5. The no. Of capacitors is

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

4 capacitors

Explanation:

Given

$n = 5$ --- conducting plates

Required

The number of capacitor (c)

This is calculated as:

$c = n - 1$

So, we have:

$c = 5 - 1$

$c = 4$

A car driver traveling at a speed of 108km per hour ,sees a traffic light and stopped after travelling for 20seconds .Find the a

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

– 2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

We have,

• Initial velocity, u = 180 km/h = 50 m/s

• Final velocity, v = 0 m/s (it stops)

• Time taken, t = 20 seconds

We have to find acceleration, a.

$\longrightarrow$ a = (v ― u)/t

$\longrightarrow$ a = (0 – 50)/20 m/s²

$\longrightarrow$ a = –50/20 m/s²

$\longrightarrow$ a = – 5/2 m/s²

$\longrightarrow$ a = – 2.5 m/s² (Velocity is decreasing) [Answer]

How does the magnitude of the electrical force between a pair of charged particles change when they are brought to half their or

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

5. Quadruple

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

If the distance between the charges is reduced to half,

$r' = \frac{r}{2}$

So the new force will be

$F'=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(r/2)^2}=4(k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4F$

So, the force will quadruple.
