Force = 3200 N

Work done = 640, 000 Nm

Explanation:

We begin by calculating the deceleration of the truck, using the velocity and distance;

a = (v² – u²)/2s

whereby;

a = acceleration

v = initial velocity

u = initial velocity

s = distance

We begin by changing the speed from km/h into m/s;

54km/hr = 15m/s

Then acceleration;

a = (0² – 15²) / 2 * 200

a = -225 / 400

a = - 0.5625 m/ s²

To calculate force;

F = ma

Whereby;

F = force

M = mass (in kgs)

a = acceleration

F = 1800 / 0.5625

F = 3200 N

Work done = Force * displacement

Work done = 3200 * 200

= 640, 000 Nm

How are some types of collisions different from others?
lyudmila [28]
There are two general types of collisions, inelastic and elastic. 
Inelastic collisions occur when two objects collide but neither of them bounce away from each other.
Collisions in which the objects do not touch each other are elastic. (Ex: Rutherford Scattering)

Explain how buoyancy can defeat the force of gravity​
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Buoyancy causes things to float in water or liquid which appears to defeat the force of gravity. Hope this helps.

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

f_{e} = 1.7 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of the compound microscope is given by the product of the magnification of each lens

        M = M₀ m_{e}

        M = - L/f₀  25/f_{e}

Where f₀ and f_{e} are the focal lengths of the lens and eyepiece, respectively, all values ​​in centimeters

In this exercise they give us the magnification (M = 400X), the focal length of the lens (f₀ = 0.6 cm), the distance of the tube (L = 16 cm), let's look for the focal length of the eyepiece (f_{e})

         f_{e} = - L / f₀ 25 / M

Let's calculate

        f_{e} = - 16 / 0.6 25 / (-400)

        f_{e} = 1.67 cm

The minus sign in the magnification is because the image is inverted.

          f_{e} = 1.7 cm

3. A model rocket takes 0.05 seconds to speed up from rest to its maximum velocity of 80 m/s.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time it took to produce such change. The formula then reads:

a = \frac{change-in-velocity}{time} = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

Where Vf is the final velocity of the object, (in our case 80 m/s)

Vi is the initial velocity of the object (in our case 0 m/s because the object was at rest)

and t is the time it took to change from the Vi to the Vf (in our case 0.05 seconds.

Therefore we have:

a = \frac{80 m/s - 0 m/s}{0.05 sec} = 1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Notice that the units of acceleration in the SI system are \frac{m}{s^2} (meters divided square seconds)
