Answer: 5 m/s^2

Explanation: You have to use a kinematics equation that Includes what you are given. So in this case you have Initial velocity, final velocity, and time. You’re looking for acceleration so you have everything you need to use an equation, the one without distance.

The driver of a 1750 kg car traveling on a horizontal road at 110 km/h suddenly applies the brakes. Due to a slippery pavement,

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: a=-2.4525 m/s^2

d=s=190.3 m

Explanation:The only force that is stopping the car and causing deceleration is the frictional force Fr

Fr = 25% of weight

W=mg

W=1750*9.81

W=17167.5

Hence

$Fr=\frac{25}{100} * -17167.5\\\\Fr=-4291.875 N$

Frictional force is negative as it acts in opposite direction

According to newton second law of motion

F=ma

hence

$a=Fr/m$

$a=-4291.875/1750\\a=-2.4525$

given

u= 110 km/h

u=110*1000/3600

u=30.55 m/s

to get t we know that final velocity v=0

$v^2=u^2+2as\\0=30.55^2-2*2.4525*s\\s=190.34m$

The brachialis attaches to the forearm .035 m from the elbow at an angle of 32 deg. If the brachialis produces 750 N of force, w

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$XY=636N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance $d=0.35m$

Angle $\theta=32\textdegree$

Force $F=750N$

Generally the equation for magnitude of the stabilizing component of the brachialis force is mathematically given by

$XY=Fcos\theta$

$XY=750cos 32\textdegree$

$XY=636N$

Your roommate leaves a 120W fan running in your apartment.Over the course of an hour,how much thermal energy does the fan add to

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

$4.32\cdot 10^5 J$

Explanation:

Power is related to energy by the following relationship:

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

where

P is the power used

E is the energy used

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we know that

- the power of the fan is P = 120 W

- the fan has been running for one hour, which corresponds to a time of

$t = 1 h \cdot (60 min/h)(60 s/min)=3600 s$

So we can re-arrange the previous equation to find E, the energy (in the form of thermal energy) released by the fan:

$E=Pt=(120 W)(3600 s)=4.32\cdot 10^5 J$
