Answer:

t = 1.05 s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance between your vehicle and car, 100 ft

The constant speed of your vehicle, u = 95 ft/s

Since, the velocity is constant, a =0

If the car stopped suddenly, time left for you to hit the brake, t = ?

Using the second equation of motion,

                           S = ut + ½ at²

Substituting the given values in the equation

                           100 = 95 x t

                             t = 100/95

                               = 1.05 s

Hence, the time left for you to hit the brakes and stop before rear ending them, t = 1.05 s

Two particles are located on the x axis. particle 1 has a mass m and is at the origin. particle 2 has a mass 2m and is at x = +l
wlad13 [49]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>
The force on m is:</span>

<span>
GMm / x^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 1

The force on 2m is:</span>

<span>
GM(2m) / (L - x)^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 2

From (1), you’ll get M = 2mx^2 / L^2 and from (2) you get M = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

Since the Ms are the same, then 

2mx^2 / L^2 = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

2x^2 = (L - x)^2 

xsqrt2 = L - x 

x(1 + sqrt2) = L 

x = L / (sqrt2 + 1) From here, we rationalize. 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (sqrt2 + 1)(sqrt2 - 1) 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (2 - 1) 


x = L(sqrt2 - 1) </span>

 

= 0.414L

 

<span>Therefore, the third particle should be located the 0.414L x axis so that the magnitude of the gravitational force on both particle 1 and particle 2 doubles.</span>

Binding of a signaling molecule to which type of receptor leads directly to a change in the distribution of substances on opposi
Mrac [35]

When two sides of a membrane are in contact with each other, the distribution of ions will alter as a result of the binding of a signal molecule to a ligand-gated ion channel.

<h3>What is a ligand-gated ion channel?</h3>

Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are membrane proteins that are structurally integral and feature a pore that permits the controlled passage of particular ions across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient for the permeant ions drives the passive ion flux.

When a chemical ligand, such as a neurotransmitter, attaches to the protein, ligand-gated ion channels open. Changes in membrane potential cause voltage channels to open and close. When a receptor physically deforms, as in the case of pressure and touch receptors, mechanically-gated channels open.

The position of a 55 g oscillating mass is given by x(t)=(2.0cm)cos(10t), where t is in seconds. determine the velocity at t=0.4
NNADVOKAT [17]
The position of the mass is given by (in cm):
x(t)=2 \cos (10 t)
The velocity is the derivative of the position:
v(t) =  \frac{dx(t)}{dt} =-10\cdot 2 \sin (10t)=-20 \sin (10t)
Substituting t=0.40 s, we can find the velocity at this time:
v(0.40 s)= -20 \sin (10 \cdot 0.4)=15 cm/s=15 \cdot 10^{-2}m/s
