a police officer parked on the side of the rode clockes a driver at a constant 130km/h (passing the stopped car). if the officer

can accelerate at 12 km/h/s, how long will it take her to catch up to the car? how fast will the polive officer be going as she comes even with the car?

Answer

given,

speed of the vehicle = 130 Km/h

officers accelerates at = 12 km/h/s

time taken by the driver to catch the vehicle = ?

at time t second

130 t = \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

260 t - 12 t^2 = 0

t (12 t - 260 )= 0

12 t =  260

t = 21.67 s

v = u + at

v = 12 × 21.67

v = 260 Km/h

A retail gasoline pump is able to fill a 14.0 gallon automobile tank in 1.50 minutes. What is the mass flow rate deliverd by the
Ludmilka [50]

We have volume of gasoline = 14.0 gallon

Time taken to fill automobile tank = 1.50 minutes

So volume rate = 14.0 gallon/1.50 minutes = 9.33 gallon/ minute

We have density of gasoline = 0.77 kg/L = 6.073 lb/US gal

Mass rate = Density * Volume rate

                 = 9.33 gallon/ minute*6.073 lb/US gal = 56.68 lb/min

So mass flow rate delivered by the gasoline pump in lbm/min = 56.68

What is the difference between transverse and longitudinal waves?
Fed [463]

To explain how transverse and longitudinal waves work, let us give two examples for each particular case.

In the case of transverse waves, the displacement of the medium is PERPENDICULAR to the direction of the wave. One way to visualize this effect is when you have a rope and between two people the rope is shaken horizontally. The shift is done from top to bottom. This phenomenon is common to see it in solids but rarely in liquids and gases. A common application usually occurs in electromagnetic radiation.

On the other hand in the longitudinal waves the displacement of the medium is PARALLEL to the direction of propagation of the wave. A clear example of this phenomenon is when a Slinky is pushed along a table where each of the rings will also move. From practice, sound waves enclose the definition of longitudinal wave displacement.

Therefore the correct answer is:

C. In transverse waves the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave, while in longitudinal waves the displacement is parallel to the direction of propagation.

Briefly explain why small-angle grain boundaries are not as effective in interfering with the slip process as are high-angle gra
artcher [175]

Answer:

Compared to High angle, relatively less presence of Crystallographic misalignment in grain boundary for small angle is reason behind its less effectiveness in interfering with slip process

Explanation:

Because of relatively much less presence of crystallographic misalignment in grain boundary for small angle, small grain boundaries are not as effective in compare to high angle in interfering with slip process

Less crystallographic misalignment in grain boundary causes not much change in slip direction and therefore interference to slip process is minimal.

A toy car moves around a circular track at constant speed. It suddenly doubles its speed — a change of a factor of 2. As a resul
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

toy car is moving in circular track

speed is doubled— a change of a factor of 2

to find change in factor of acceleration

radius doesn't change

centripetal acceleration formula

           = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

velocity is change in factor of 2

so acceleration will be change at the factor of

           = \dfrac{(2v)^2}{r}

           = 2² = 4

so the correct answer is option B
