A commuter backs her car out of her garage with an acceleration of 1.40 m/s^2. (a) How long does it take her to reach a speed of

2.00 m/s? (b) If she then brakes to a stop in 0.800 s, what is her deceleration?

Answer:

a) It takes her 1.43 s to reach a speed of 2.00 m/s.

b) Her deceleration is - 2.50 m/s²

Explanation:

The equation of velocity for an object that moves in a straight line with constant acceleration is as follows:

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

v = velocty.

v0 = initial velocity.

a = acceleration.

t = time.

a) Using the equation of velocity, let´s consider that the car moves in the positive direction. Then:

v = v0 + a · t

2.00 m/s = 0 m/s + 1.40 m/s² · t

t = 2.00 m/s / 1.40 m/s²

t = 1.43 s

It takes her 1.43 s to reach a speed of 2.00 m/s

b) Let´s use again the equation of velocity, knowing that at t = 0.800 s the velocity is 0 m/s:

v = v0 + a · t

0 = 2.00 m/s + a · 0.800 s

-2.00 m/s / 0.800 s = a

a = -2.50 m/s²

Her deceleration is - 2.50 m/s²

A sample contains 16 g of a radioactive isotope. how much radioactive
mafiozo [28]

After one half-life, 8 g of radioactive isotope will remain in the sample.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The act of producing radiation spontaneously is known as radioactivity. This is accomplished by an unstable atomic nucleus that want to give up some energy in order to move to a more stable form.

The following formula is used to compute the number of half lives elapsed:

\rm N=\frac{N_0}{2^n} \\\\ N=\frac{16}{2} \\\\ N= 8 \ gram

Hence,8 gram of radioactive isotope remains in the sample after 1 half-life.

A.) Determine the work done by Zach on the bull.
tresset_1 [31]

Explanation:

The unit of work done is in Joules

Work done is a physical quantity that is defined as the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

Work is only done when the force applied moves a body through a distance.

    Work done  = Force x distance

The maximum work is done when the force is parallel to the distance direction.

The minimum work is done when the force is at an angle of 90° to the distance direction.

 So to solve this problem;

 multiply the force applied by Zack and distance through which the bull was pulled.

The high-speed winds around a tornado can drive projectiles into trees, building walls, and even metal traffic signs. In a labor
Travka [436]

Answer:

F  = 183.153 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of the toothpick = 0.12 g = 0.00012 kg  

initial velocity = 227 m/s    

final velocity = 0 m/s      

penetration depth = 16 mm = 0.016 m        

using the equation of motion        

v² - u² = 2 a s                            

0 - u² = 2 a s                                      

- 221² = 2 × a × 0.016      

a = 1526281.25 m/s²            

Force is equal to            

F = m a

  = 0.00012 × 1526281.25

F  = 183.153 N
