At t = 0, one toy car is set rolling on a straight track with initial position 13.5 cm, initial velocity -4.2 cm/s, and constant

acceleration 2.60 cm/s2. At the same moment, another toy car is set rolling on an adjacent track with initial position 8.5 cm, initial velocity 5.20 cm/s, and constant zero acceleration.
(a) At what time, if any, do the two cars have equal speeds?

(b) What are their speeds at that time?

(c) At what time(s), if any, do the cars pass each other? ...?

(a) We must first look at the formulas of the velocities of each toy car. v1 =
-4.2 + 2.60t. v2 = 5.20. When the two cars have equal speed, then 
v1 = v2
-4.2 + 2.60t = 5.20
2.60t = 9.40
t = 3.62 s

(b) Their speed would then be 5.20 m/s. The toy car does not change speed since it doest not have any acceleration.
(c) The two cars will pass each other when their positions are equal.
x1 = 13.5 - 4.2t + 0.5*2.60t^2
x2 = 8.5 + 5.20t
x1 = x2
13.5 - 4.2t + 1.30t^2 = 8.5 + 5.20t
1.30t^2 - 9.40t + 5.0 = 0
t = 6.65s or t = 0.58 s

Explain the runaway refrigerator effect and the role it may have played in the evolution of Mars.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The runway refrigerator effect and the role it would have played in the evolution of Mars can be summarized as follows

The weak gravity of Mars does not allow it have a gaseous atmosphere over it. The thin atmosphere would have lead to lower temperature on mars.In in turn would have lead to freezing of gases thus lowering the temperature further. The thinner atmosphere and colder temperature would lead to loss of most water in the planet.
