If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.

Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.

Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.

Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.

Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.

2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v (1)

Where:

m_{S}, m_{C} - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

v_{S}, v_{C} - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m_{S} = 2200\,kg, m_{C} = 2000\,kg, v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s} and v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}, then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:

m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v -m_{C}\cdot v_{C}

v_{S} = \frac{(m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v - m_{C}\cdot v_{C}}{m_{S}}

v_{S} = \left(1+\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \right)\cdot v - \frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \cdot v_{C}

v_{S} = v +\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}}\cdot (v-v_{C})

v_{S} = -15\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{2000\,kg}{2200\,kg} \right) \cdot \left(-15\,\frac{m}{s}-45\,\frac{m}{s}  \right)

v_{S} = -69.545\,\frac{m}{s}  

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

A bird sits on a high-voltage power line with its feet 3.87 cm apart. The wire is made from aluminum, is 2.11 cm in diameter, an
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

ΔV=0.484mV

Explanation:

The potential difference across the end of conductor that obeys Ohms law:

ΔV=IR

Where I is current

R is resistance

The resistance of a cylindrical conductor is related to its resistivity p,Length L and cross section area A

R=(pL)/A

Given data

Length L=3.87 cm =0.0387m

Diameter d=2.11 cm =0.0211 m

Current I=165 A

Resistivity of aluminum p=2.65×10⁻⁸ ohms

So

ΔV=IR

=I(\frac{pL}{A})\\ =I(\frac{pL}{\pi r^{2} } )\\=I(\frac{pL}{\pi (d/2)^{2} } )\\=165A((\frac{(2.65*10^{-8})(0.0387m)}{\pi (0.0211m/2)^{2} } ))\\=4.84*10^{-4}V

ΔV=0.484mV

A carbon fiber car bumper is hit by another car with the stress of 106,483 Pa. If carbon fiber has a Young's modulus of 228 x 10
hoa [83]

Answer:

Stress = 4.67 * 10^-7 N/m²

Explanation:

Young's modulus of the material = Stress/Strain

Given

Young's modulus  = 228 x 10^9 Pa

Stress =  106,483 Pa

Required

Strain

From the formula;

Strain = Stress/Young modulus

Strain =  106,483 /228 x 10^9

Stress = 4.67 * 10^-7 N/m²
