A 912-kg car is being driven down a straight, level road at a constant speed of 31.5 m/s. When the driver sees a police cruiser
sergejj [24]

Answer:

786.6 N

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 912 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s

final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s

time, t = 8 s

Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8

a = - 0.8625 m/s^2

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 912 x 0.8625

F = 786.6 N

Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.

A circuit is built based on the circuit diagram shown. What is the current in the 50 Ω resistor
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

1.2 A

Explanation:

From the diagram attached, The three resistors are parallel because the each ends of the resistors are connected together. Since they are in parallel, the voltage across each resistor is the same. The voltage source connected in parallel to the resistors is 60 V. Therefore the voltage across the 50 Ω resistor is 60 V. Using ohm law:

Voltage (V) = Current (I) × Resistance (R)

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 60 V/ 50 Ω

I = 1.2 A

The current in the 50 Ω resistor is 1.2 A

Explain why airplane pilots should know wind velocity and not just wind speed during a flight
Lapatulllka [165]
Air speed is how fast you are peddling over the ground, wind speed is how fast the wind is blowing above the ground.Depending on the correlation between the two with direction thrown the pilot knows what sort of resistance he is flying against.

rickey approaches third base. He dives head first, hitting the ground at 6.75 m/s and reaching the base at 5.91 m/s in 2.5 secon
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

15.825 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2.5 s

u = Initial velocity = 6.75 m/s

v = Final velocity = 5.91 m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{5.91-6.75}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow a=-0.336\ m/s^2

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{5.91^2-6.75^2}{2\times -0.336}\\\Rightarrow s=15.825\ m

The distance Rickey slides across the ground before touching the base is 15.825 m
