Suppose a car is traveling at +25.0 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.340 s has elapsed (the reaction t

ime), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 7.00 m/s2.

First, we will get the distance traveled before the driver applied the brakes.
distance = velocity * time
distance = 25*0.34 = 8.5 m

Now, we will calculated the distance that the car traveled after the driver applied the brakes. To do this, we will use the equation of motion:
<span>vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d where:
</span>vf = zero, vi = 25 m/s and a = -7 m/s^2
Note: The negative sign is only to show deceleration 
d = <span> 1/2*(625) /(7) = 44.6428 m

The total stopping distance =</span> 8.5 + 44.6428 = 53.1428 m

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

9.8m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of the ball thrown after leaving my hand is 9.8m/s². This will be the acceleration due to gravity on the body.

  • Acceleration due to gravity is caused by the pull of the earth on a massive object.
  • The value of this acceleration is 9.8m/s².
  • As the ball nears the surface, it comes near zero.

Two students below described a part of Earth's innermost layer:
Molodets [167]
The answer to your question is B- They both described the inner part otherwise known as the inner core.

The inner core is hotter than the surface of the sun. The inner core is made out of iron and nickel.  The inner core is extremely hot and is the last layer.  It is a solid because of all the pressure from the other layers putting there weight onto this layer.

Electromagnetic waves require a medium to transfer energy<br> True or False
Simora [160]

The statemengt is <em>false</em>. Electromgnetic waves do not require a medium to transfer energy. They can transfer energy through vacuum (empty space with nothing in it). If electrimagnetic waves needed a medium to move through from place to place, then we could never see the sun, and also it would get very cold here.

Why is the solar system commonly represented as a scale model?
topjm [15]
The actual size of the Solar system is too big to show without making a much smaller model. If someone wants to see the orientation of the planets a model has to be made so we can see it without flying out too space.
