Answer:
9) a = 25 [m/s^2], t = 4 [s]
10) a = 0.0875 [m/s^2], t = 34.3 [s]
11) t = 32 [s]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations. In this way we have:
9)
a)
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]
a = acceleration [m/s^2]
x = distance = 200 [m]
Note: the final speed is zero, as the car stops completely when it stops. The negative sign of the equation means that the car loses speed or slows down as it stops.
0 = (100)^2 - (2*a*200)
a = 25 [m/s^2]
b)
Now using the following equation:
0 = 100 - (25*t)
t = 4 [s]
10)
a)
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations. In this way we have:
Note: The positive sign of the equation means that the car increases his speed.
5^2 = 2^2 + 2*a*(125 - 5)
25 - 4 = 2*a* (120)
a = 0.0875 [m/s^2]
b)
Now using the following equation:
5 = 2 + 0.0875*t
3 = 0.0875*t
t = 34.3 [s]
11)
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations. In this way we have:
10^2 = 2^2 + 2*a*(200 - 10)
100 - 4 = 2*a* (190)
a = 0.25 [m/s^2]
Now using the following equation:
10 = 2 + 0.25*t
8 = 0.25*t
t = 32 [s]
Answer:
c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum
Explanation:
In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.
When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.
At stp (standard temperature and pressure), the temperature is T=0 C=273 K and the pressure is p=1.00 atm. So we can use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of helium:
where p is the pressure (1.00 atm), V the volume (20.0 L), n the number of moles, T the temperature (273 K) and
the gas constant. Using the numbers and re-arranging the formula, we can calculate n:
Potential energy is energy stored due to its position. Thermal energy is energy released as heat
The annual production of carbon dioxide is 124121.49×10^{6}[/tex] kg.
First we calculate the fuel consumed by each car in a year
Fuel consumed=6990/21.4=326.63 gallon
Now we calculate the amount of fuel consumed by 40 million cars in a year
Fuel consumed=326.63*40*10^6=13065.42 million gallon,
Now we can calculate the annual production of carbon dioxide in the USA
CO2 production rate=9.50*13065.42=124121.49*10^6 kg
Therefore the annual production of carbon dioxide in USA is 124121.49×10^{6}[/tex] kg
