Driving home from school one day, you spot a ball rolling out into the street (Figure 5-21). You brake for 1.20 s, slowing your

950-kg car from 16.0 m/s to 9.50 m/s.
a) What was the average force exerted on your car during braking?
b) How far did you travel while braking?

A ) v = v o + a t  ( the acceleration will be negative )
9.50 = 16.0 + a * 1.2
a * 1.2 = -16.0 + 9.50
a * 1.2 = - 6.5 
a = - 6.5 : 1.2
a = - 5.4167 m/s²
F = m * a = 950 kg * 5.4167 m/s²
F = 5,145.8 N ( the average force exerted on a car during braking )
b ) d = v o - a t² / 2
d = 16.0 * 1.2 - ( 5.4167 * 1.2² / 2 ) =
= 19.20 - 3.90 = 15.30 m

A wave has a frequency of 15,500 Hz and a wavelength of 0.20 m. What is the
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3100 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

f = 15,500 Hz

\lambda=0.20 m

Therefore, the wave speed is

v=(15500)(0.20)=3100 m/s

As in the video, we apply a charge +Q to the half-shell that carries the electroscope. This time, we also apply a charge –Q to t
Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:

When the positively charged half shell is brought in contact with the electroscope, its needle deflects due to charge present on the shell.

When the negatively charged half shell is brought in contact with the positively charged shell , the positive and negative charge present on each shell neutralises each other  .So both the shells lose their charges .The positive half shell also loses all its charges

When we separate the half shells , there will be no deflection  in the electroscope because both the shell have already lost their charges and they have become neutral bodies . So they will not be able to produce any deflection in the electroscope.

What is the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet of a 0.1 cm diameter? Assume that air is surrounding this droplet a
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the honey droplet, D = 0.1 cm

radius of the honey droplet, R = 0.05 cm = 0.0005 m

surface tension of honey, γ = 0.052 N/m

Apply Laplace's law for a spherical membrane with two surfaces

Gauge pressure =  P₁ - P₀ = 2 (2γ / r)

Where;

P₀ is the atmospheric pressure

Gauge pressure = 4γ / r

Gauge pressure = 4 (0.052) / (0.0005)

Gauge pressure = 416 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

Some birds migrate 20,000 miles. If 1 mile equals 1.6 kilometers, calculate the distance these birds fly in kilometers.
faust18 [17]
Set up a proportion

1 mile/1.6 km = 20,000miles/x

Cross Multiply
x = (20,000) * (1.6)
x = 32,000 kilometers

The height (in meters) of a projectile shot vertically upward from a point 2 m above ground level with an initial velocity of 23
Burka [1]

Answer:

a) v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}, b) v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The equation for vertical velocity is obtained by deriving the function with respect to time:

v(t) = 23.5 -9.8\cdot t

The velocities at given instants are, respectivelly:

v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}

v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}
