Explain why the brakes of a car get much hotter than the brakes of a bicycle?

Answer: Car brakes produces more energy then the bicycle because the cars wheels produces a much bigger force that makes the car go and to stop that force the car uses greater amount of energy that transfers to heat but in a bicycle the wheels do not turn that fast so when you press the break there is less energy that transfer to heat.

An astronaut is on the moon. He drops a hammer from a height of 3.2metres and it takes 2.0 seconds to reach the lunar landscape.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1/6 m/s^2 ( about 1/6th gravity of Earth ( 9.81 m/s^2)

Explanation:

Displacement = yo + vo t - 1/2 a t^2

- 3.2 = 0 + 0 - 1/2 a(2.0)^2

- 3.2 = -2a

a = 3.2 / 2 = 1.6 m/s^2

When heat is removed from a substance , describe how the molecules are affected

kkurt [141]

I believe they would electron rate would slow down and the molecules would shrink.

I am almost positive that this is correct. I hope it helps!

In a carnival booth, you can win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a small dish. the dish is on a shelf above the poi

Georgia [21]

components of the speed of the coin is given as

$v_x = v cos60$

$v_x = 6.4 cos60 = 3.2 m/s$

$v_y = vsin60$

$v_y = 6.4 sin60 = 5.54 m/s$

now the time taken by the coin to reach the plate is given by

$t = \frac{\delta x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{2.1}{3.2}$

$t = 0.656 s$

now in order to find the height

$h = vy * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$h = 5.54 * 0.656 - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(0.656)^2$

$h = 1.52 m$

so it is placed at 1.52 m height

A clarinetist, setting out for a performance, grabs his 3.070 kg clarinet case (including the clarinet) from the top of the pian

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the vertical acceleration of the case is 1.46 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the clarinet case, m = 3.07 kg

upward force applied by the man, F = 25.60 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

the upward force on the clarinet case = its weight acting downwards + downward force due to its downward accelaration

F = mg + m(-a)

the acceleration is negative due to downward motion from the top of the piano.

F = mg - ma

ma = mg - F

$a = \frac{mg - F}{m} \\\\a = \frac{(3.07 \times 9.8) \ - \ 25.6}{3.07} \\\\a = 1.46 \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the vertical acceleration of the case is 1.46 m/s²
