A 1200.0-kg car is traveling at 19m/s. The driver suddenly slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic f

riction between the tires and the road is 0.80. For what length of time is the car skidding?
1.7 s

2.9 s

3.9 s

2.4 s

<h2>Answer</h2>

option D)

2.4 seconds

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given in the question,

mass of car = 1200kg

speed of car = 19m/s

Force due to direction of travel

F = ma

= 12000(a)

Force to due frictional force in reverse direction

-F = mg(friction coefficient)

= -12000(9.81)(0.8)

<h2>-mg(friction coefficient) = ma </h2>

(cancelling mass from both side of equation)

g(0.8) = a

(9.81)(0.8) = a

a = 7.848 m/s²

<h2>Use Newton Law of motion</h2><h3>vf - vo = a • t</h3>

where vf = final velocity

vo = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

0 - 19 = 7.8(t)

t = 19/7.8

= 2.436 s

≈ 2.4s

A closely wound search coil has an area of 3.13 cm2, 135 turns, and a resistance of 61.1 Ω. It is connected to a charge-measurin

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the magnitude of magnetic field be B .

flux passing through the coil's = area of coil x field x no of turns

Φ = 3.13 x 10⁻⁴ x B x 135 = 422.55 x 10⁻⁴ B .

emf induced = dΦ / dt , Φ is magnetic flux.

current i = dΦ /dt x 1/R

charge through the coil = ∫ i dt

= ∫ dΦ /dt x 1/R dt

= 1 / R ∫ dΦ

= Φ / R

Total resistance R = 61.1 + 44.4 = 105.5 ohm .

3.44 x 10⁻⁵ = 422.55 x 10⁻⁴ B / 105.5

B = 3.44 x 10⁻⁵ x 105.5 / 422.55 x 10⁻⁴

= .86 x 10⁻¹

= .086 T .

Even when the head is held erect, as in the figure below, its center of mass is not directly over the principal point of support

alexandr1967 [171]

We are asked to determine the force required by the neck muscle in order to keep the head in equilibrium. To do that we will add the torques produced by the muscle force and the weight of the head. We will use torque in the clockwise direction to be negative, therefore, we have:

$\Sigma T=r_{M\perp}(F_M)-r_{W\perp}(W)$

Since we want to determine the forces when the system is at equilibrium this means that the total sum of torque is zero:

$r_{M\perp}(F_M)-r_{W\perp}(W)=0$

Now, we solve for the force of the muscle. First, we add the torque of the weight to both sides:

$r_{M\perp}(F_M)=r_{W\perp}(W)$

Now, we divide by the distance of the muscle:

$(F_M)=\frac{r_{W\perp}(W)}{r_{M\perp}}$

Now, we substitute the values:

$F_M=\frac{(2.4cm)(50N)}{5.1cm}$

Now, we solve the operations:

$F_M=23.53N$

Therefore, the force exerted by the muscles is 23.53 Newtons.

Part B. To determine the force on the pivot we will add the forces we add the vertical forces:

$\Sigma F_v=F_j-F_M-W$

Since there is no vertical movement the sum of vertical forces is zero:

$F_j-F_M-W=0$

Now, we add the force of the muscle and the weight to both sides to solve for the force on the pivot:

$F_j=F_M+W$

Now, we plug in the values:

$F_j=23.53N+50N$

Solving the operations:

$F_j=73.53N$

Therefore, the force is 73.53 Newtons.

Big Ben, a large artifact in England, has a mass of 1x10^8 kilograms and the Empire State Building 1x10^9 kilograms. The distanc

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The force, exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building is 2.66972 × 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

The question relates to the force of gravity experienced between two bodies

The given parameters are;

The mass of Big Ben, M₁ = 1 × 10⁸ kg

The mass of the Empire State Building, M₂ = 1 × 10⁹ kg

The distance between the two Big Ben and the Empire State Building, r = 5,000,000 meters

By Newton's Law of gravitation, we have;

$F=G \times \dfrac{M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where;

F = The force exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building and vice versa

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²

M₁, M₂, and r are the given parameters

By plugging in the values of the parameters and the constant into the equation for Newton's Law of gravitation, we have;

$F=6.67430 \times 10^{-11} \times \dfrac{1 \times 10^8 \times 1 \times 10^9}{(5,000,000)^{2}} = 2.66972 \times 10^{-7}$

The force, 'F', exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building is F = 2.66972 × 10⁻⁷ N.

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is $I_3 =41.31 W/m^2$

Explanation:

According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity $I_0$ is mathematically represented as

$I = I_0cos^2 \theta$

Now considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

$I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n$

Where n is the number of polarizers

Substituting $60.0W/m^2$ for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

$I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3$

$=41.31 W/m^2$
