A car with mass 1500 kg moves with constant velocity of 36 m/s. The driver sees a group of cows in front and he immediately step

s on the brake pedal and manage to stop the car in 6 s. The distance of the cows from the car when the driver spotted them is 160 m. How far are the cows from the car when the car stops?

From laws of motion:

S = ( \frac{v + u}{2} ) \times t
Where S is the distance/displacement (as you would call it) which is unknown
v = final velocity which is 0m/s (this is because the car stops)
u = initial velocity which is 36m/s (from the data given)
t = time taken for the distance to be covered and it is 6s


Substitute the values, hence:
S = ( \frac{0 + 36}{2} ) \times 6
S = (18) \times 6 \\  \\ S = 108m

But this is merely the distance he travelled in the 6 seconds he was trying to stop the car.

Therefore, the distance between the car and the cows = 160-108
Distance = 52m

Students were asked to create roller coasters for marbles. The only requirement is that the roller coaster include at least one
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Since energy is lost in the roller coaster due to friction, the hill should little lower than the starting height since some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill is lost  due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.

A roller coaster is a good way to demonstrate the principle of conservation  of energy. Recall that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.

In a roller coaster, all the heights are not the same because energy is lost along the line. Therefore, the students must bear in mind that  the hill should be at least a little lower than the starting height because some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill will be converted to other types of energy due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.

A small 22 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy
VladimirAG [237]
Kinetic energy is simply 1/2 *mass* velocity^2 
so since you know both mass and velocity you should be able to calculate the kinetic energy.

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 50.0kg and a velocity of 18 m/s?
Rom4ik [11]
<h2>Answer </h2>

The kinetic energy is 8100 J.

<u>Explanation</u>

Mass is 50.0kg and velocity is 18 m/s, the kinetic energy is:

As we know the formula of kinetic energy which is K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

mass = m = 50.0kg

velocity = v = 18 m / s,

by putting values in the formula,

K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 18 m / s ) ^ 2

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 324 ),

=> K.E = 1/2 ( 16200 ),

=> K.E = 16200 / 2,

=> K.E = 8100J.

Hence, the kinetic energy ( K.E ) is 8100 joule ( J ).

What is a key difference between cell signaling by a cell-surface receptor and cell signaling by an intracellular receptor?
Art [367]

CORRECT ANSWER:

a- Cell-surface receptors bind polar signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind nonpolar signaling molecules.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

The complete question from book is

According to Figure 9.6, what is a key difference between cell signaling by a cell-surface receptor and cell signaling by an intracellular receptor?

a- Cell-surface receptors bind polar signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind nonpolar signaling molecules.

b- Signaling molecules that bind to cell-surface receptors lead to cellular responses restricted to the cytoplasm; signaling molecules that bind to intracellular receptors lead to cellular responses restricted to the nucleus.

c- Cell-surface receptors bind to specific signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind any signaling molecule.

d- Cell-surface receptors typically bind to signaling molecules that are smaller than those bound by intracellular receptors.

e- None of the other answer options is correct.
