Answer:
A downward sloped line means the object is returning to the starting point.
Answer: 0K
Explanation:
Absolute 0 (0K) is the point where nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance.
The frequency of the pendulum is independent of the mass on the end. (c)
This means that it doesn't matter if you hang a piece of spaghetti or a school bus from the bottom end. If there is no air resistance, and no friction at the top end, and the string has no mass, then the time it takes the pendulum to swing from one side to the other <u><em>only</em></u> depends on the <u><em>length</em></u> of the string.
Answer:
The shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m
Explanation:
Given;
coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.84
speed of the automobile, u = 29.0 m/s
To determine the the shortest distance in which you can stop an automobile by locking the brakes, we apply the following equation;
v² = u² + 2ax
where;
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
x is the shortest distance
First we determine a;
From Newton's second law of motion
∑F = ma
F is the kinetic friction that opposes the motion of the car
-Fk = ma
but, -Fk = -μN
-μN = ma
-μmg = ma
-μg = a
- 0.8 x 9.8 = a
-7.84 m/s² = a
Now, substitute in the value of a in the equation above
v² = u² + 2ax
when the automobile stops, the final velocity, v = 0
0 = 29² + 2(-7.84)x
0 = 841 - 15.68x
15.68x = 841
x = 841 / 15.68
x = 53.64 m
Thus, the shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m
As the speed is a scalar quantity as it has the only magnitude in it. Therefore, the average speed is also stated as a scalar quantity.
Hence, the correct answer is (B)
