Two cars start from rest at a red stop light. When the light turns green, both cars accelerate forward. The blue car accelerates

uniformly at a rate of 3.8 m/s2 for 4.6 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 9.2 seconds, before applying the brakes such that the car’s speed decreases uniformly coming to rest 257.71 meters from where it started. The yellow car accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the blue car just as the blue car comes to a stop.
How fast is the blue car going 2.8 seconds after it starts?

First, create an illustration of the motion of the two cars as shown in the attached picture. The essential equations used is

For constant acceleration:
a = v,final - v,initial /t

The solutions is as follows:

 a = v,final - v,initial /t
 3.8 = (v - 0)/2.8 s
 v = 10.64 m/s
 After 2.8 seconds, the speed of the blue car is 10.64 m/s.

Convert 43 km/h to m/s.​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

43km/h to m/s = 11.9444

Explanation:

1 km = 1000 m; 1 hr = 3600 sec. To convert km/hr into m/sec, multiply the number by 5 and then divide it by 18.

An object is thrown upwards with the speed of 40.0 km/hr in 5 second, calculate the distance in millimeters (mm).
sertanlavr [38]
V=(40km/hr)(hr/3600s)(1000000mm/km)
v=11111.1mm/s

v=d/t
d=vt
d=(11111.1mm/s)(5s)
d=55555mm
d=5.56x10^4mm

A test charge of -1.4 x 10-7 coulombs experiences a force of 5.4 x 10-1 newtons. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field c
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

3.86×10⁶ Newton/coulombs

Explaination:

Applying,

E = F/q....................... Equation 1

Where E = Electric Field, F  = Force, q = charge.

From the question,

Given: F = 5.4×10⁻¹ N, q = -1.4×10⁻⁷ coulombs

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 5.4×10⁻¹/ -1.4×10⁻⁷

E = -3.86×10⁶ Newtons/coulombs

Hence the magnitude of the electric field created by the

negative test charge is 3.86×10⁶ Newton/coulombs
