You are driving at 25 m/s with your cruise control on when you see a fallen tree in the road. It takes you 0.30 s to put on the
xxTIMURxx [149]

Explanation:

Given data

velocity v= 25m/s

The time it takes to put on brake t= 0.3s

the distance covered when the  brake was put on is

v=s/t

s= v*t

s= 25*0.3s

s= 7.5m

hence the distance covered is 7.5m

Also the rate of decrease in aceleration is 5m/s^2

we can also calculate the distance covered at this rate

v^2=u^2+2as

25^2= 0+2*5*s

625=10s

divide both sides by 10

s=625/10

s= 62.5m

The total  distance covered between putting on the brakes and decelareation is  7.5+62.5= 70m

Given that the tree is 75m ahead, the car would not hit the tree

You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceilin
Ivan

Answer: The elevator must be accelerating.

Explanation:

As the tension force is opposing to the the force of gravity on the load which is hung vertically, and the tension force can adopt any value in order to comply with Newton's 2nd law, if the tension force is less than the force due to gravity, this means that all system is not in equilibrium, so it must be accelerating.

If we assume that the downward is the positive direction, we can write:

mg - T = ma

If T = 0.9 mg, ⇒ mg (1-0.9) =0.1 mg = m a ⇒a = 0.1 g , in downward direction.

Which pair of terms correctly fills the blanks in the following sentence? ________ is a property of an object while ________ is
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D) resistance, resistivity

Explanation:

Resistance is a physical quantity that indicates the opposition of an object to conduct electricity, this quantity depends on different factors such as temperature, material, object length, among other things. The resistance of two objects of the same material may be different, because it depends on the specifications of the object.

On the other hand, resistivity is a more general quantity, since it is assigned to materials and depends only on the nature of the material and its temperature.

So the resistivity is related to the meterial rather than the object.

The answer is: Resistance is a property of an object while resistivity is a property of a material.

A meter stick balances at the 50.0-cm mark. If a mass of 50.0 g is placed at the 90.0-cm mark, the stick balances at the 61.3-cm
Airida [17]

Answer:

126.99115 g

Explanation:

50 g at 90 cm

Stick balances at 61.3 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

mgl_1=Mgl_2\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{ml_1}{l_2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{50\times (61.3-90)}{50-61.3}\\\Rightarrow M=126.99115\ g

The mass of the meter stick is 126.99115 g

A wire is used as a heating element that has a resistance that is fairly independent of its temperature within its operating ran
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Double the current

Explanation:

The energy delivered by the heater is related to the current by the following relation:

E= I^{2}R t

let R * t = k ( ∴ R and t both are constant)

so E= k I^{2}

Now let:

E2= k I₂^2

E2= 4E

⇒ k I₂^2= 4* k I^{2}

Cancel same terms on both sides.

I₂^2= 4* I^{2}

taking square-root on both sides.

√I₂^2 = √4* I^2

⇒I₂= 2I

If we double the current the energy delivered each minute be 4E.
