To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking; then the car slows under the constant braking deceler

ation. Suppose that the total distance moved by your car during these two phases is 58.6 m when its initial speed is 79.2 km/h, and 24.2 m when its initial speed is 47.8 km/h. What are (a) your reaction time and (b) the magnitude of the deceleration

Answer:

a.) 2.66 seconds for 79.2 km/h and 1.82 seconds for 47.8 km/h

b.)-4.13 m/s2 for 79.2 km/h and -3.63 m/s2 for 47.8 km/h

Explanation:

Now for (a)

time = velocity/distance

for velocity = 79.2 km/h and distance 0.0586 km

t = (0.0586/79.2)*3600

t = 2.66 seconds (Please note that multiplication with 3600 is to convert hours into seconds)

for velocity 47.8 km/h and distance 0.0242 km

t = (0.0242/47.8)*3600

t = 1.82 seconds

Now for (b)

2as = vf2-vi2

so,

2a(58.6) = -(79.2*1000/3600)^2 (Please note that multiplication and division with 1000 and 3600 respectively is to convert speed unit from km/h to m/s)

a = -4.13 m/s2 for 58.6 m

and

2a(24.2) = -(47.8*1000/3600)^2

a = -3.63 m/s2 for 24.2 m.

Please note that "-" sign express the deceleration.

What is the mass of a bullet moving at 970m/s if the bullet’s KE is 3.9x 10^3J
motikmotik

Answer:

0.08kg

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2 mv^2

v = 970m/s

K.E = 3.9x 10^3J= 3900J

K.E = 1/2 mv^2

3900 = 1/2 m x 970x 970

3900 = 1/2 ×940900m

3900 = 470450m

m = 3900/470450 = 0.00828993516 = 0.008kg

A stone is tossed horizontally from the highest point of a 95 m building and lands 105 m from the base of the building. Ignore a
aalyn [17]

Answer:

A) t = 4.40 s , B)   v = 23.86 m / s ,  c)  v_y = - 43.12 m / s , D)  v = 49.28 m/s

Explanation:

This is a projectile throwing exercise,

A) To know the time of the stone in the air, let's find the time it takes to reach the floor

          y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

as the stone is thrown horizontally  v_{oy} = 0

          y = y₀ - ½ g t²

          0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

          t = √ (2 y₀ / g)

          t = √ (2 95 / 9.8)

          t = 4.40 s

B) what is the horizontal velocity of the body

          v = x / t

          v = 105 / 4.40

          v = 23.86 m / s

C) The vertical speed when it touches the ground

          v_y = v_{oy} - g t

          v_y = 0 - 9.8 4.40

          v_y = - 43.12 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is down

D) total velocity just hitting the ground

          v = vₓ i ^ + v_y j ^

          v = 23.86 i ^ - 43.12 j ^

Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the modulus

          v = √ (vₓ² + v_y²)

          v = √ (23.86² + 43.12²)

           v = 49.28 m / s

we use trigonometry for the angle

          tan θ = v_y / vₓ

          θ = tan⁻¹ (-43.12 / 23.86)

            θ = -61
