(a) By definition of average acceleration,

a = ∆v / ∆t = (0 - 38 m/s) / (5.0 s)

a = -7.6 m/s²

(b) Recall that

v² - u² = 2 a ∆x

where u and v are initial and final velocities, respectively; a is acceleration; and ∆x is the change in position. So

0² - (38 m/s)² = 2 (-7.6 m/s²) ∆x

∆x = 95 m

The zero tolerance law applies to drivers _________.

s2008m [1.1K]

The zero tolerance law applies to drivers under the age of 21.

<h3>Zero Tolerance Law:</h3>

Drivers under the age of 21 who operate a motor vehicle with a BAC of between 0.02% and 0.07% are subject to what is known as the "Zero Tolerance Law." The Zero Tolerance Law aims to prevent underage drivers from driving after consuming alcohol.

The zero-tolerance rule states that it is against the law for anyone under the age of 21 to operate a motor vehicle while having any detectable level of alcohol in their system. Zero Tolerance Law states that a minor has committed the criminal offense of DUI if there is ANY detectable level of alcohol in his or her system while operating a vehicle in public. The minor's driver's license is immediately suspended, and the officer has the authority to confiscate the license on the spot.

A 20 kg mass is moving at 10 m/s and collides with a stationary 5 kg mass, transferring all its momentum in the collision, what

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

v = 40 [m/s].

Explanation:

Linear momentum is defined as the product of mass by Velocity. In this way, by means of the following equation, we can calculate the momentum.

$P=m*v\\$

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

$P =20*10\\P =200 [kg*m/s]$

Since all momentum is transferred, we can say that this momentum is equal for the mass of 5 [kg]. In this way, we can determine the speed after the impact.

$v = P/m\\v = 200/5\\v = 40 [m/s]$

How is a net electric charge produced

Vlad [161]

If an object has more protons than electrons, then the net charge on the object is positive. If there are more electrons than protons, then the net charge on the object is negative. If there are equal numbers of protons and electrons, then the object is electrically neutral.

The critical angle for water is 49°. If a ray of light

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Snell's Law states

Ni sin i = Nr sin r

Judging from the question the source of the ray is in the water (directed up)

or NI = 1 / sin 49 Ni = 1.325 deg the critical angle

From inside the pond:

Nr = 1.325 * sin 45 / 1 = 94 deg

So refraction can occur outside the pond and you do not have total internal refection.
