From laws of motion:

Where S is the distance/displacement (as you would call it) which is unknown
v = final velocity which is 0m/s (this is because the car stops)
u = initial velocity which is 36m/s (from the data given)
t = time taken for the distance to be covered and it is 6s
Substitute the values, hence:


But this is merely the distance he travelled in the 6 seconds he was trying to stop the car.
Therefore, the distance between the car and the cows = 160-108
Distance = 52m
If no frictional work is considered, then the energy of the system (the driver at all positions is conserved.
Let
position 1 = initial height of the diver (h₁), together with the initial velocity (v₁).
position 2 = final height of the diver (h₂) and the final velocity (v₂).
The initial PE = mgh₁ and the initial KE = (1/2)mv₁²
where g = acceleration due to gravity,
m = mass of the diver.
Similarly, the final PE and KE are respectively mgh₂ and (1/2)mv₂².
PE in position 1 is converted into KE due to the loss in height from position 1 to position 2.
Therefore
(KE + PE) ₁ = (KE + PE)₂
Evaluate the given answers.
A) The total mechanical energy of the system increases.
FALSE
B) Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy but not vice versa.
TRUE
C) (KE + PE)beginning = (KE + PE) end.
TRUE
D) All of the above.
FALSE
1. Find the force of friction between the sports car and the station wagon stuck together and the road. The total mass m = 1928kg + 1041kg = 2969kg. The only force in the x-direction is friction: F = μ*N = μ * m * g
2. Find the acceleration due to friction:
F = m*a = μ * m * g => a = μ * g = 0.6 * 9.81
3. Find the time it took the two cars stuck together to slide 12m:
x = 0.5*a*t²
t = sqrt(2*x / a) = sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) )
4. Find the initial velocity of the two cars:
v = a*t = μ * g * sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) ) = sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g)
5. Use the initial velocity of the two cars combined to find the velocity of the sports car. Momentum must be conserved:
m₁ mass of sports car
v₁ velocity of sports car before the crash
m₂ mass of station wagon
v₂ velocity of station wagon before the crash = 0
v velocity after the crash
m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂ = (m₁+m₂) * v = m₁*v₁
v₁ = (m₁+m₂) * v / m₁ = (m₁+m₂) * sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g) / m₁
v₁ = 33.9 m/s
Answer:
the displacement is zero and the distance is 100 meters
Explanation:
A control variable is the one element that is not changed throughout an experiment.A dependent variable is a variable whose variation does not depend on that of another.A independent variable is a variable whose value depends on that of another.
