An inattentive driver is traveling 18.0 m/s when he notices a red light ahead. his car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3

.35 m/s2 . if it takes him 0.200 s to get the brakes on and he is 20.0 m from the intersection when he sees the light, will he be able to stop in time?

Speed of the car given initially

v = 18 m/s

deceleration of the car after applying brakes will be

a = 3.35 m/s^2

Reaction time of the driver = 0.200 s

Now when he see the red light distance covered by the till he start pressing the brakes

d_1 = v* t

d_1 = 18* 0.200 = 3.6 m

Now after applying brakes the distance covered by the car before it stops is given by kinematics equation

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s

here

vi = 18 m/s

vf = 0

a = - 3.35

so now we will have

0^2 - 18^2 = 2*(-3.35)(s)

s = 48.35 m

So total distance after which car will stop is

d = d_1 + d_2

d = 48.35 + 3.6 = 51.95 m

So car will not stop before the intersection as it is at distance 20 m

Where is the sun's energy most concentrated
Maru [420]

B. At the equator

Explanation:

The energy coming from the Sun hits the Earth's surface at different angles, depending on the latitude of the place. The more perpendicular the ray of lights hit the surface, the more the energy transmitted to the Earth's surface, the warmer the location.

The angle at which the ray of lights hit the Earth is related to the latitude: in particular, the ray of lights arrive perpendicular at the equator (0^{\circ}), they arrive at larger angle in the United States (which is located at intermediate latitudes) and they arrive at the largest angles at the poles. For this reason, the sun's most energy is concentrated at the equator.

Answer:

Acceleration of the bullet while moving into the clay is -312500 ms⁻²

Explanation:

Given data

Initial velocity (v₁) = 250 m/s                 Final velocity (v₂) = 0 m/s

Distance (s)= 0.1 m                            acceleration (a) = ?

Using 3rd equation of motion

                  2as = v₂²- v₁²

       2 × a × 0.1 = 0² - 250²

            0.2 × a = -62500

                      a = -62500/0.2

                     a = -312500 m/s²

Here negative sign indicate that bullet slow down and it is deceleration i.e negative acceleration.

Determine the Specific Heat Capacity (Cs) of the liquid. Where: Mass of liquid (M₂) = 0.0012Kg, Initial temperature (₁)=23°C, Fi
alexandr1967 [171]

The Specific Heat Capacity of the liquid is 43.846 KJ/(Kg K).

  • It is given that Mass of liquid (M) = 0.0012Kg, Initial temperature (T1) = 23°C, Final temperature (T2) = 62°C, Voltage (V) = 8v, Current (I) = 0.95A, Time (t) = 270s
  • The quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature is known as the heat capacity or thermal capacity of that object.
  • We know that heat capacity for a substance is :
  • H = m*C*ΔT    - equation (1)

  • When a conductor is subjected to current flow, the conductor's free electrons are set in motion and collide with one another. Moving electrons experience kinetic energy loss and partial thermal energy conversion as a result of the collision. This impact of current is referred to as its heating effect.
  • Due to electric current, heat energy is :
  • H = Power * Time
  • H = Current * Voltage * Time
  • H = I*V*t          - equation (2)

  • Using equation (1) and (2),
  • m*C*ΔT = I*V*t
  • Substituting the values for m, ΔT, I, V and t.
  • 0.0012Kg * C * (62 - 23)K = 0.95A * 8v * 270s
  • Solving for C, we get C = 43.846 KJ/(Kg K)

When encountering a powerboat in darkness or reduced visibility, what do visible white and red lights indicate?.
MakcuM [25]

A visible white and red light indicate a second craft is coming from the starboard (right) side.

<h3>What is a navigation light?</h3>

A navigation light often referred to as a running light or position light, is a source of illumination aboard a ship, plane, or spacecraft that provides information about the location, course, or condition of the vehicle. Red and green navigation lights help with traffic control by indicating the orientation of the craft.

All navigation light systems typically comprise one or more white lights as well as red and green sidelights that designate the boat's port and starboard sides.

Having a flashlight on board is also essential since you never know when a navigation light may go out.

The typical navigational lights:

SidelightsSternlightMasthead lampoverall white lighting

Sidelights: Because they are visible to other vessels approaching from the side or head-on, these red and green lights are sometimes known as combo lights. The port (left) and starboard (right) sides of a ship are indicated by the red and green lights, respectively.

sternlight: Only from behind or almost behind the ship can one see the sternlight.
