with 50 km/h = 15m skid

so, 150 km/h = 45m skid

multiply sides by 3, make them proportional to each other!!!

Kinetic energy = (1/2 m) x (speed)²

A car moving 3 times as fast has 9 times as much kinetic energy.

If the force of friction between the tires and the ground
is the same at every speed, then the car has to go 9 times
as far to burn off the increased kinetic energy.

9 x 15m = 135 meters

Europa, a satellite of Jupiter, is believed to have a liquid ocean of water (with a possibility of life) beneath its icy surface

Goryan [66]

Answer:

so maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa is 0.950999 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

legs of length r = 0.68 m

diameter = 3100 km

mass = 4.8×10^22 kg

to find out

maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa

solution

first we calculate radius that is

radius = d/2 = 3100 /2 = 1550 km

radius = 1550 × 10³ m

so we calculate no maximum velocity that is

max velocity = √(gr) ...............1

here r is length of leg

we know g = GM/r² from universal gravitational law

so G we know 6.67 × $10^{-11}$ N-m²/kg²

g = 6.67 × $10^{-11}$ ( 4.8×10^22 ) / ( 1550 × 10³ )

g = 1.33 m/s²

now

we put all value in equation 1

max velocity = √(1.33 × 0.68)

max velocity = 0.950999 m/s

so maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa is 0.950999 m/s

Using the law of conservation of angular momentum, estimate how fast a collapsed stellar core would spin if its initial spin rat

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$

Explanation:

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that angular momentum remains constant when there is no external moment or forces applied to the system. Let assume that star can be modelled as an sphere, then:

$\frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{o}^{2} \cdot \omega_{o} = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{f}^{2} \cdot \omega_{f}$

The final angular speed is:

$\omega_{f} = \omega_{o}\cdot (\frac{R_{o}}{R_{f}})^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = (1\,\frac{rev}{day} )\cdot (\frac{10000\,km}{10\,km} )^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$

Aluminum has an atomic number of 13, so it has 13 protons. In its natural state, it does not have a charge, so it has an equal amount of electrons, 13. The atomic mass of aluminum is approximately 27. Since protons and neutrons make up that mass, and each of the particles are around 1 atomic mass unit, if there are 13 protons, then there are 27-13 neutrons, or 14 neutrons. So the first answer choice is correct.

What best describes a reference fram?

finlep [7]

Answer:

A reference frame is that frame to which the qualities of an object are related:

For instance - an object may described by - mass, speed, acceleration, size, etc,

It is important to remember that Newton's Laws of motion do not hold in accelerated reference frames -

Einstein's laws of special relativity are only true in frames that move with contant speed to one another
