As much as 90% of the matter in the universe may be unseen “dark matter.” where is this dark matter?

1 answer:

7 0

As much as 90% of the matter in the universe my be unseen i.e. dark matter. There is a variety of explanations offered by many astronomers and physicists for this dark matter. It could merely be ordinary material such as ultra-faint stars, cold gas, large or small black holes or dust scattered around the universe, all of which emit or reflect too little radiation for our instruments to detect. It could also consist of exotic, unfamiliar particles that we have not figured out how to observe.

A driver in a 2290-kg car car traveling at 42.7 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefficient of friction betw

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

126.56 m

Explanation:

Applying,

-F = ma............. Equation 1

Where F = frictional force, m = mass of the car, a = acceleration.

Note: Frictional force is negative because it act in opposite direction to motion

But,

F = mgμ.......... Equation 2

Where g = acceleration due to gravity, μ = coefficient of friction

Substitute equation 2 in equation 1

-mgμ = ma

a = -gμ.............. Equation 3

From the question,

Given: μ = 0.735

Constant: 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in equation 3

a = -9.8×0.735

a = -7.203 m/s²

Finally,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 4

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, s = distance

From the question,

Given: u = 42.7 m/s, v = 0 m/s (to a stop), a = -7.203 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 4

0² = 42.7²+2(-7.203)s

-1823.29 = -14.406s

s = -1823.29/-14.406

s = 126.56 m

Determine the linear velocity of an object with an angular velocity of 5.9 radians per second at a distance of 12 centimeters fr

Andre45 [30]

The linear velocity of a rotating object is the product of the angular velocity and the radius of the circular motion. Angular velocity is the rate of the change of angular displacement of a body that is in a circular motion. It is a vector quantity so it consists of a magnitude and direction. From the problem, the angular velocity is 5.9 rad per second and the radius is given as 12 centimeters. We calculate as follows:

Linear velocity = angular velocity (radius)
Linear velocity = 5.9 (12 ) = 70.8 cm / s

The linear velocity of the body in motion is 70.8 centimeters per second or 0.708 meters per second.
