A 1500-kg car locks its brakes and skids to a stop on a slippery horizontal road, leaving skid marks that are 15 m long. How muc

h mechanical energy was dissipated as this happened? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is 400.40un.

Answer:

E=88200\ J

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of car, m=1500\ kg
  • distance of skidding after the application of brakes, d=15\ m
  • coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.4

<u>So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:</u>

<em>Frictional force:</em>

f=\mu_k.N

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8

f=5880\ N

<em>Now from the work-energy equivalence:</em>

E=f.d

E=5880\times 15

E=88200\ J is the dissipated energy.

As the scattering angle of the photon increases, what happens to the wavelength associated with the photon?
frez [133]

As the scattering angle of the photon increases, the wavelength associated with the photon increases.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The particle with quantum mechanical property is known as Compton wavelength. The wavelength of a photon increases during collision. When the scattering angle of the photon is 0 degree then the photon's wavelength increases by 0 and when the scattering angle  is 180 degree then the wavelength of  the photon will become double. This is known as Compton wavelength.

When a photon undergoes collision process, the photo loses its energy and this energy is transferred to the electrons. This causes energy of the photon to decrease and thus the frequency also decreases. Thus, the wavelength of the photon will increase.

What’s the importance of fluid balance while exercising
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The maintenance of fluid balance during exercise. Sodium also promotes retention of ingested fluids and leads to an increased plasma volume response during rehydration. The primary goal of supplementation should be considered, fluid vs carbohydrate provision, and the beverage composition altered accordingly.
