Suppose a certain car supplies a constant deceleration of A meter per second per second. If it is traveling at 90km/hr. When. th
aksik [14]

Answer:

i)-6.25m/s

ii)18 metres

iii)26.5 m/s or 95.4 km/hr

Explanation:

Firstly convert 90km/hr to m/s

90 × 1000/3600 = 25m/s

(i) Apply v^2 = u^2 + 2As...where v(0m/s) is the final speed and u(25m/s) is initial speed and also s is the distance moved through(50 metres)

0 = (25)^2 + 2A(50)

0 = 625 + 100A....then moved the other value to one

-625 = 100A

Hence A = -6.25m/s^2(where the negative just tells us that its deceleration)

(ii) Firstly convert 54km/hr to m/s

In which this is 54 × 1000/3600 = 15m/s

then apply the same formula as that in (i)

0 = (15)^2 + 2(-6.25)s

-225 = -12.5s

Hence the stopping distance = 18metres

(iii) Apply the same formula and always remember that the deceleration values is the same throughout this question

0 = u^2 + 2(-6.25)(56)

u^2 = 700

Hence the speed that the car was travelling at is the,square root of 700 = 26.5m/s

In km/hr....26.5 × 3600/1000 = 95.4 km/hr

A sled that has a mass of 8 kg is pulled at a 50 degree angle with a force of 20 N. The force of friction acting on the sled is
vitfil [10]

The acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s². Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Given data;

m(mass of sled)=8 kg

Θ is the inclination of force= 50°

Force of friction,f=2.4 N.

The applied force at the given angle is resolved into the two-component as;

\rm F_h=F cos \theta \\\\ F_h= 20 cos 50 ^0 \\\\ F_h= 12.85 \ N

\rm F_v=F sin \theta \\\\  F_v=20 sin 50^0 \\\\   F_v=15.32 \ N

The net vertical force is zero;

\rm F_N=mg-Fsin50^0 \\\\ \rm F_N=8 \times 9.81 -15.32 \\\\ F_N=63.1 \ N \\\\

From Newton's second law the net force as;

\rm \sum F_{net}=ma \\\\ Fcos 60^0-f =ma \\\\ a=\frac{12.855-2.4}{8} \\\\a = 1.30 \ m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s².

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Neap tides, which also occur twice a month, happen when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other. ... This occurs twice each month. The moon appears new (dark) when it is directly between the Earth and the sun. The moon appears full when the Earth is between the moon and the sun.
