A car traveling at 30m/s screeches to a halt, leaving 55 m long skid marks. what was the cars acceleration while braking

Physics

Finger [1]3 years ago

For this problem we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equation is written below:

2ax = v² - v₀²
where 
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity

Since the car comes to a stop eventually, v=0. Substituting the values,

2a(55) =0² - 30²
a = -8.18 m/s²

Renewable resources are going to be important in our future because if we use up all of our NON-renewable resources now, then we’ll still have the renewable resources to depend on.
I hope this helped! :-)

Which statements describe magnetic poles? Check all that apply.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Explanation:

Magnet: It has two poles: South pole and North pole.

Magnetic field lines are stronger near the poles of the magnet.

Same poles repel each other. There is a magnetic force of repulsion between the same poles. North- North poles repel each other.

Unlike poles attract each other. There is magnetic force of attraction between the opposite poles. South- North poles attract each other.

Mono poles cannot exist.

From the given statements, the magnetic poles are described by:

A north pole must exist with a south pole.

Two south poles placed near each other will repel each other.

A north pole and a south pole placed near each other will attract each other.

<h3>What is Quadratic equation ?</h3>

A quadratic equation as an equation of degree 2, meaning that the highest exponent of this function is 2. The standard form of a quadratic equation is y = ax^{2} + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers and a cannot be 0

P(A) = 0.006 a^{2} - 0.02a + 120

123 = 0.006- 0.02a + 120

0=0.006 a^{2} - 0.02a - 3

you can use the quadratic equation  formula to solve for the man's age.

A = (-b ± (\sqrt{b^{2} - 4*a*c})  ) / (2a)

A = (0.02 ±  \sqrt{(-0.02)^{2} - 4*0.006*(-3)}/ (2*0.006)

A = (0.02 ± \sqrt{0.0076}) / 0.012

A = 9 , -5.67

Age of the man will be 9 years

a missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0 degree angle. it needs to hit a target 19,500 m away in a 32.0 degree direction in 9.20 s
Ket [755]

Answer:

112 m/s², 79.1°

Explanation:

In the x direction, given:

x₀ = 0 m

x = 19,500 cos 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 cos 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 cos 32.0° = 0 + (1810 cos 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 21.01 m/s²

In the y direction, given:

y₀ = 0 m

y = 19,500 sin 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 sin 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 sin 32.0° = 0 + (1810 sin 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 109.6 m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration is:

a² = ax² + ay²

a² = (21.01)² + (109.6)²

a = 112 m/s²

And the direction is:

θ = atan(ay / ax)

θ = atan(109.6 / 21.01)

θ = 79.1°

How much current does it take to paralyze your muscles?​
satela [25.4K]

Answer: Current needed, mA 20 Voltage needed, V AC 6

Explanation: An electric gradient (or field) can exist that is analogous to the situation described above for step and touch potentials. The situation is more complex to analyze in the water because a person in the water assumes different postures and orientations in 3 dimensions (up, down, and sideways—north, south, east, and west). The transthoracic and translimb voltages will vary as the person moves in relation to the orientation (direction) of the electric field.
