You are driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35m in front of you. Your reaction tim
8090 [49]

Answer:

- Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 20 m

- The time required for you to stop once you press the brakes = less than 5 s in order not to hit the deer.

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion,

In the 0.5 s reaction time, we need to first calculate how far he has travelled in that time.

a = 0 m/s² (Since the car is travelling at constant velocity)

x = ?

Initial velocity = u = 20 m/s

x = ut + at²/2

x = 20×0.5 + 0 = 10 m

From that moment,

a = - 10 m/s²

u = initial velocity at the start of the deceleration = 10 m/s

v = final velocity = 0 m/s

x = ?

v² = u² + 2ax

0² = 10² + 2(-10)(x)

20x = 100

x = 5 m

Total distance travelled from when the deer stepped onto the road = 10 + 5 = 15 m

Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 35 - 15 = 20 m

b) To determine the time required to stop once you step on the brakes

u = 10 m/s

t = ?

v = 0 m/s²

x = distance from when the brake was stepped on to the deer = 35 - 10 = 25 m

x = (u + v)t/2

25 = (10 + 0)t/2

10t = 50

t = 5 s

Meaning the time required to stop once you step on the brakes is less than 5s.

A tradesman sharpens a knife by pushing it with a constant force against the rim of a grindstone. The 30-cm-diameter stone is sp
Lorico [155]

Answer:

a. 0.21 rad/s2

b. 2.205 N

Explanation:

We convert from rpm to rad/s knowing that each revolution has 2π radians and each minute is 60 seconds

200 rpm = 200 * 2π / 60 = 21 rad/s

180 rpm = 180 * 2π / 60 = 18.85 rad/s

r = d/2 = 30cm / 2 = 15 cm = 0.15 m

a)So if the angular speed decreases steadily (at a constant rate) from 21 rad/s to 18.85 rad/s within 10s then the angular acceleration is

\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{21 - 18.85}{10} = 0.21 rad/s^2

b) Assume the grind stone is a solid disk, its moment of inertia is

I = mR^2/2

Where m = 28 kg is the disk mass and R = 0.15 m is the radius of the disk.

I = 28*0.15^2/2 = 0.315 kgm^2

So the friction torque is

T_f = I\alpha = 0.315*0.21 = 0.06615 Nm

The friction force is

F_f = T_f/R = 0.06615 / 0.15 = 0.441 N

Since the friction coefficient is 0.2, we can calculate the normal force that is used to press the knife against the stone

N = F_f/\mu = 0.441/0.2 = 2.205 N

Convection currents produce the heat in the Earth’s interior.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Convection currents do not produce heat. In fact, convection current are a method of transfer of heat, not of production. Convection occurs when there is a fluid which is heated from bottom, from an external source of heat (such as a pot of boiling water over a flame): the bottom part of the fluid becomes warmer, and so less dense than the colder part, therefore it starts moving up, and it is replaced by the colder parts of the fluid, which go down. Later, these colder parts become warmer, so they start going up, being replaced by new colder parts, etc... in a cycle. This is known as convection current, but it requires an external source of heat, it does not produce heat by itself.
