<h2>Answer: Pressure</h2>

<u>Pressure</u> is the force F exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) A.

Its unit according to the International System of Units is Pascal Pa which is equal to N/m^{2} and its formula is:  

P=\frac{F}{A}

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to 20 m/sec in 5.6 sec along a level stretch of road. Ignoring friction, determine the ave
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

(a) P=33000W

(b) P=51000W

Explanation:

The average power is defined as the amount of work done during a time interval:

P=\frac{W}{t}(1)

According to work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. So, we have:

W=\Delta K\\W=K_f-K_0\\W=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_0^2}{2}\\(2)

Recall that the weight is given by:

w=mg\\m=\frac{w}{g}(3)

The car accelerates uniformly from rest (v_0=0). Replacing (3) in (2), we have:

W=\frac{wv_f^2}{2g}

(a) Finally, we replace this in (1):

P=\frac{wv_f^2}{2gt}\\P=\frac{9000N(20\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5.6s)}\\P=33000W

(b)

P=\frac{14000N(20\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5.6s)}\\P=51000W

A car traveling at 26.8m/s hits the brakes to slow down before turning into a neighborhood. Determine how fast it is going after
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The speed of the car after the break was applied is  90.46 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 26.8 m/s

accelertation of the car, a = -8.2 m/s²

time of motion, t = 14.3 s

final velocity, v = ?

Apply the following kinematic equation;

v = u + at

v = 26.8 + (-8.2 x 14.3)

v = 26.8 -  117.26

v = -90.46 m/s

magnitude of the final velocity = 90.46 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the car after the break was applied is  90.46 m/s

A hockey player uses her hockey stick to exert a force of 6.81 N on a stationary hockey puck. The hockey puck has a mass of 165
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

41.3 m/s^2 option (e)

Explanation:

force, F = 6.81 N

mass, m = 165 g = 0.165 kg

Let a be the acceleration of the puck.

Use newtons' second law

Force = mass x acceleration

6.81 = 0.165 x a

a = 41.27 m/s^2

a = 41.3 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the puck is 41.3 m/s^2.
