At the instant a traffic light turns green, a car starts from rest with a given constant acceleration of 0.5 m/s squared. Just a

s the light turns green, a bus, traveling with a given constant speed 16.0 m/s, passes the car. The car speeds up and passes the bus sometime later. How far down the road has the car traveled when the car passes the bus?

Answer:

d= 1024 m

Explanation:

Kinematics of the car

The car moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula:

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (1)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

v₀₁= 0   :initial speed of the car

a₁ =0.5 m/s² : acceleration of the car

Kinematics equation of the car

We replace data in the formula (1) :

d= 0+ (1/2)*0.5*t²

d= (0.25)*t²  Equation (1)

Kinematics of the bus

The car moves with uniformly movement ( constant speed) we apply the following formulas:

d= v*t   Formula (2)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

Data

v =  16 m/s

Kinematics equation of the bus

We replace data in the formula (2) :

d= 16*t   Equation (2)

<em>Problem development</em>

when the car passes the bus the elapsed time (t) and the distance (d) is equal for both.

Equation (1) = Equation (2)=d

(0.25)*t² =16*t  We divide both sides of the equation by t

(0.25)*t = 16

t= 16/(0.25)

t= 64 s

We replace t in the equation  (2)

d= 16*t

d= 16*(64)

d= 1024 m

The temperature dependence of classical expression for electrical resistivity is​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The resistivity of materials depends on the temperature as ρt = ρ0 [1 + α (T – T0). This is the equation that shows the relationship between the resistivity and the temperature.

Consider a plywood square mounted on an axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the square and passes through the center of t
belka [17]

Answer:

T= 8.061N*m

Explanation:

The first thing to do is assume that the force is tangential to the square, so the torque is calculated as:

T = Fr

where F is the force, r the radius.

if we need the maximum torque we need the maximum radius, it means tha the radius is going to be the edge of the square.

Then, r is the distance between the edge and the center, so using the pythagorean theorem, r i equal to:

r = \sqrt{(0.38m)^2+(0.38m)^2}

r = 0.5374m

Finally, replacing the value of r and F, we get that the maximun torque is:

T = 15N(0.5374m)

T= 8.061N*m

A flow is isentropically expanded to supersonic speeds in a convergent-divergent nozzle. The reservoir and exit pressures are 1.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Ae/A* = 1.115

Explanation:

Let the reservoir pressure be  p_0

Let the exit  pressure be p_e

Ratio of reservoir pressure and exit pressure

\frac{p_o}{p_e} = \frac{1}{0.3143}

  = 3.182

For the above value of pressure ratio

Obtain the area ratio from the isentropic flow table

Ae/A* = 1.115

The value of pressure ratio is Ae/A* = 1.115
