Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency

Speed = (.020 m) x (5 / sec)

Speed = 0.1 m/s

A driver is moving at 17.0 m/s when she sees a child on a bike 65m ahead of her. If the car can brake at 4.9 m/s^2 and the drive

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The driver can avoid the child because at the time she brake 1.6s the car just move 20.928 meters so is far to the 65 meters where the kind is

Distance= 20.928 m

Explanation:

$V_{o} = 17 \frac{m}{s} \\a= -4.9 \frac{m}{s^{2} }\\ t= 1.6 s$

Distance the kid is 65m so the car have to be less in the time she is braking

So to calculated the distance while she is braking

$X_{f} = X_{o} +V_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2} * a *t^{2}\\ X_{f} = 0m +17 \frac{m}{s} *1.6 s + \frac{1}{2} * 4.9 \frac{m}{s^{2} } *(1.6s)^{2}\\X_{f} = 27.2 m+ (-6.272 m)\\X_{f} = 20.928 m$

The distance of the car is less than the distance of the kid in his bike

So she didn't hit him

Answer:

The angle introduces an error on the mesure of the weight

Explanation:

Weight and Normal Forces

When an object is resting on a horizontal surface, its weight is directed downwards and the normal force has the same magnitude and opposite direction, i.e. directed upwards. When some angle α exists between the surface and the horizontal plane, the scale keeps 'feeling' the Normal force, but it's not equal to the weight anymore, but to the perpendicular component of the weight to the surface where the scale is placed. It can be found that the component of the weight is m.g.cosα

If, for example $\alpha=10^o$ , the real measure is
