Hope it helped you.

A. Acceleration is a wrong answer. Acceleration is the rate of change to in velocity. It involves a change in speed and direction. 

B.  Force is a wrong answer. Force is a directions from push/or pull.

C. Inertia is a correct. Inertia is a tendency of an object to stay at the rest or preserve its state of motion.

D. Velocity is a incorrect answer. Velocity is the placement of an object during a specific unit of time. It has two measurements are needed to determine velocity.

A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 38 ft/s2. what is the dist
e-lub [12.9K]

Convert 38 ft/s^2 to mi/h^2. Then we se the conversion factor > 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.

So now we show it > 38  \frac{ft}{s^2}  x  \frac{1mi}{5280ft} x  \frac{(3600s)^2}{(1h)^2} = 93272.27  \frac{mi}{h^2}

Then we have to use the formula of constant acceleration to determine the distance traveled by the car before it ended up stopping.

Which the formula for constant acceleration would be > v_2^2=v_1^2 + 2as

The initial velocity is 50mi/h (v_1=50)

When it stops the final velocity is (v_2=0)

Since the given is deceleration it means the number we had gotten earlier would be a negative so a = -93272.27

Then we substitute the values in....

0^2 = 50^2 + 2(-93272.27)s&#10;&#10;0 = 2500 - 186544.54s&#10;&#10;Isolate S next.&#10;&#10;185644.54s= 2500&#10;&#10;s =  2500/(185644.54)&#10;&#10;s=0.0134&#10;

So we can say the car stopped at 0.0134 miles before it came to a stop but to express the distance traveled in feet we need to use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet in otherwards > 0.0134 mi *  \frac{5280ft}{1mi}  = 70.8 ft
So this means that the car traveled in feet 70.8 ft before it came to a stop.

What is the electric field 4.0 m from the center of the terminal of a Van de Graaff with a 7.10 mC charge, noting that the field
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

3984875 N/C

Explanation:

Applying,

E = kq/r².................. Equation 1

Where E = Electric field, q = charge, r = distance, k = coulomb's constant.

From the question,

Given: q = 7.10 mC = 0.0071 C, r = 4.0 m

Constant: k = 8.98×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 0.0071(8.98×10⁹)/4²

E = 3984875 N/C

Hence the electric field is 3984875 N/C
